Say goodbye to crawling around in the back of your cargo van endlessly searching for tools, parts and equipment. The KUV creates optimized organization for the technician, dividing the storage space into manageable compartments that are externally accessible from either side of the body.

The technician pulls up to the jobsite, exits the cab and immediately has quick access to the tools and parts they need without having to crawl into the cargo area. Dedicated conduit chutes enable the technician to store longer items without cluttering the floor of the oversized cargo area.

Knapheide's KUV is constructed of rugged galvanneal steel so the technician can have confidence it will provide years of reliable service. More contractors and technicians utilizing an enclosed utility body as their work vehicle choose a Knapheide KUV. If you spend more time searching for tools and equipment, invest in a KUV and get more billable hours out of your day.

Contractor truck bodies combine our most popular flatbed, the Value-Master X, and packages it up with options and accessories that contractors commonly desire to make their job easier.

Above and under-body toolboxes provide the contractor with easily accessible and secure tool storage. An overhead material rack accommodates for convenient storage for up to 1,500 pounds of longer materials. Side and rear stakes close off the cargo area so oversized equipment or materials won’t fall out during transport.

Select the Knapheide Contractor Body to get the most out of your work day.
