# Free tools for running vans

**Two calculators that answer the questions van operators ask before they commit:** what payload is genuinely left once the van is converted, crewed and fuelled, and what a VAT-registered business really pays once the VAT comes back. Both are free and instant, and there is no form in front of the answer, the enquiry route sits underneath it, for the businesses that want one.

- [Van payload calculator Manufacturer payload is quoted before racking, a crew seat or a full tank. Put your real kit in and see what is actually left for the load. Payload is gross vehicle weight minus kerbweight, then minus everything you bolt on and carry. Open the calculator →](https://fleetme.co.uk/tools/van-payload-calculator)
- [Van lease VAT calculator Ex-VAT, VAT, inc-VAT and the effective net cost after recovery, with the 50% car block applied automatically when it bites. A VAT-registered business normally recovers 100% of the VAT on a van lease; most car leases suffer a 50% block. Open the calculator →](https://fleetme.co.uk/tools/van-lease-vat-calculator)

## Why these are free

Because the answers are checkable, and a business that can check them makes a better decision about its vehicles. Every regulatory and tax figure the tools use is cited on the page to a named source and a year, so you can verify it rather than take our word for it. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, and there is no sign-up in front of a result.

If the answer sends you looking for a different vehicle, that is the conversation we want to have. FleetMe supplies the vehicle and the agreement is with us, business contract hire over terms up to 12 months for limited companies and LLPs, or sole trader hire of up to 12 days for individuals and sole traders.
