Plumbing and Heating Fleet Disposal
Plumbing and heating fleets are made up of small and medium vans that carry heavy, wet, awkward loads all day. They wear out from the inside, and they usually come off fleet with racking still fitted and a load area that has seen better days.
Vehicles we typically handle for plumbing and heating operators
Every sector runs a recognisable vehicle mix, and the buyers who want those vehicles are not the same in each case. For plumbing and heating the mix is usually:
- Small vans for domestic service calls
- Medium racked vans for installation work
- Large vans for boiler and cylinder delivery
- Crew vans for install teams
Why plumbing fleets dispose
Contract renewals with housing providers, growth or contraction in engineer headcount, and the point where a van's repair bills exceed its value all trigger disposal — usually a few vehicles at a time.
- Housing or maintenance contract changes
- Engineer headcount changes
- Repair costs outrunning value
Ply-lining, racking and water damage
Damp-damaged ply, corroded load floors and worn racking are common. They do not stop a sale — trade buyers factor it in, and stripping a van back adds cost without adding price.
Getting the right buyers in front of your vehicles
Sector-specific vehicles sell best to the trade buyers who need that exact build. Through the EAMA Group auction network your plumbing and heating vehicles are presented to a national base of dealers, operators and specialists rather than a single trade buyer making one offer — which is where the value difference on converted and equipped vehicles comes from.

Frequently Asked Questions
The load areas are in poor condition — does that matter?
Very little. Load area wear is expected on trade vans and has a small effect on the price compared with mechanical condition and history.
Can you take vans one or two at a time?
Yes. Small, regular disposals are handled with scheduled collections whenever vehicles are ready.
Is there a minimum number of vehicles?
No. We handle single vehicles and rolling programmes of hundreds, though anything over about five is usually planned as a staged disposal.
How much does collection cost?
Collection is included across mainland UK, including recovery for vehicles that cannot be driven.
