I'm some what rusty when It comes to small vans, would I fit in ten boxes 50 x 50 x 50 all sizes in cms in a small van, caddy or berlingo size and still have much room left, I would try and work it out myself but haven't got a small van handy thanks

If you can stack them yes. Most small vans should be at least 160cm x 120cm x 115cm.

My Pug is 133.5 x 101.5 x 80.4. Looks like 50cm sq (20in) I could fit 2 wide 3 deep and 2 high.

This may be too late but I reckon I'd get 12 of them stacked in my Caddy. I had 24 boxes, about 1 n a half times the size of copier paper boxes last week.

Just make sure the driver doesn't turn up in one of the new breed of micro vans like the Peugeot Bipper!
