A removal van is either a rolling professional unit or a cargo shell with a cot sliding around in back. The difference is the removal van setup: deck, retention, and the onboard kit. Here's the professional standard, from a premier funeral supply company since 2009.
Deck Systems & Cot Retention
A vehicle deck system is the foundation: a platform that standardizes load height, locks the cot against shift, and — in two-tier configurations — doubles the vehicle's capacity for multi-call routes. Retention isn't optional: an unsecured cot is a projectile in a hard stop and an indignity in every turn. Browse removal vehicle equipment for the full fit-out.
The Onboard Kit
Behind the deck: a folding stretcher, board and slider, spare quilted cover, pouches in three sizes, gloves, and lighting. The complete list is in our first call equipment guide; cold-weather additions in the winter removals guide. Everything rides in the FIRSTCALL10 10%-off category.
