I think Doobin is on the money there the LDV is a much underrated van (and as such it's not going to get nicked)
I don't think you'd need a waste carrier's for your own use ...... BUT for the cost of a tier 2 license it'll save a lot of time.
I'd be buying the LDV and register for the upper tier waste carrier's
When your driving about follow skip wagons and grab lorries and see where they tip, and definitely keep all the waste separate

My mates did similar. They put a 1.5t digger and a 120 (3t) roller on it and a dumper on the trailer behind.hardly bloody surprising with what he had on the back of that old girl
It got welded back together. In fact several years later I ended up buying it off him with 480,000km on it

I bought this to use while I’m doing my house renovation project. It cost less than 5k, and has moved numerous loads of rubble/soil/clay, stone back in, blocks, timber, insulation and plasterboard. Won’t win any awards but looks reasonably presentable and does the job. The downside is most tippers have lived a hard life, this one isn’t too bad but always seems to need something fixing. The positive is it will probably sell for close to purchase price once I’m done with it as long as it tips and has MOT! They are just so handy to nip to merchants etc.

That looks a tidy vehicle. Please post on here when it comes to the end of its time with you!!

Pictures probably make it look a bit better than it is, there’s a bit of rust creeping here and there!

I may still be interested if my self build is still ongoing at the time of your disposal. I had a crew cab one until last year but it was just too long and the crew cab depleted the load carrying capacity

If you’re tight on space And staying local-ish I’d look for a cabstar. Wouldn’t want to travel the country in one but narrower than a transit where access is tight
This looks a reasonable buy for the money www.eBay.co.uk/itm/304795266765

bollocks, didn't see that! Shame.what'd that tow Doob? if it had a 'conventional' body on it I'd be very tempted myself ... handy sort of thing to have sat about as a "road going dumper" , for norralorrabucks
Towing capacity I think would be something like 2000kg, you'd know it was on there though!! I once towed my E27 with the LDV, loaded with logs from a job, on a back lane to the yard (about two miles). First gear and heart in mouth on every slight hill.
It was then I decided to try an Iveco

Heres my old tipper. I sold it for 11k so done not bad. I've replaced it with 2 the same. They can have niggly faults but reliable enough. That ones had the dpf taken out if it. Small journey issues.
Heaps of torque. Can tow 3.5 tons. Has a load capacity of 850kg but can comfortably handle twice that. The aluminum box is the one to go for. Very well built and stands up to more than you think.

I’ve got 3 old Cabstar and they aren’t bad, but the cabs rot for fun under the seats.

The 2.3 engine is a Renault anyhow as far as I know. Been no bother to me though in Navaras.
I’m thoroughly disappointed that they no longer make a Cabstar
