For many new business start-ups in the UK that operate in the service industry the need to be mobile is essential, where you need to travel to your customer to provide your service or deliver your goods.
There are new start-up businesses being launched every day in the UK and there is a huge market for talented individuals that are able to drive directly to their customers either for convenience or out of necessity.
Osborne Motor Bodies is the go-to company for any new entrepreneurs looking to get their mobile business on the road, but need more than a standard car to enable them to do their job.
We offer a wide range of brand-new basic utility vehicle bodies and commercial vehicle bodies that can be customised and converted to meet the needs of each individual entrepreneur.
This could involve buying and fitting out a refrigerated van that can be lined and insulated to your chilled or frozen specifications and fitted with shelving or racking, to a Land Rover OHL Vehicle fitted with everything you need to run a mobile car mechanic or light engineering service.

A mobile caterer

A box van vehicle body or a Safeload milk delivery vehicle would both be ideal for this business. The Safeload milk delivery vehicle body would be a good choice if you want to transport chilled food. The vehicle has GRP insulated panel construction and is fully insulated throughout.
The sliding side doors give you full access to the internal deck for easy lifting and movement of your food products and can be fitted out with shelving and racking to suit your needs. Refrigeration can be provided by an engine-driven refrigeration unit with electric overnight standby if required.
A mobile massage therapist
While many mobile massage therapists will carry a folding massage table in the back of a car when visiting clients, you could take your massage services to the next level by creating a mobile massage therapy room inside a utility vehicle body. Your therapy room would provide a little oasis of calm for your client right on their doorstep but away from the many distractions of home, such as interruptions from family members or the phone ringing.
A mobile personal trainer
Why not take the gym to your clients by providing a mobile personal training service where you take all of the necessary exercise equipment to your client.
