Hi, this is my first post on here, go easy on me lol. My partner has won a 10'x8' shed on EBAY to be used to house all her rabbits. The question i want to ask is what size van do i need to hire to pick it up bearing in mind i assume the biggest panel will be the fllor which is in one piece. I have my Class 2 (Cat C) driving license if needed. The shed will need dismantling, do you think it will be a hard job at all?

Many thanks thanks in advance.

most sheds that size will have the floor in 2 pieces.. Biggest part will be the 10 foot side. Our supplier uses a nissan tipper type truck to deliver their ones.
 
hire a luton van. easily 10ft long and 8ft high. Dont have to worry about things coming adrift of the vehicle with a luton van. Get some straps from the hire place to secure things in the back.

Also surprisingly easy and fun to drive :lol: And just a car license.

Thermo's answer is probably the best bet, a flat bed will be so much easier to load and unload.
I once picked up a 6x8 shed in an LDV pilot van, the narrow bodied type used by the post office. However, to fit it in I ended up having to saw the shed panels up and then adding extra studs later to re erect it :)
