    Until the thing you’re moving is 1 inch taller or longer than your van, sure.

    If the goal is to regularly move furniture, and you want a standard height vehicle (not a tall box van), a pickup truck is more interesting.

    (Vans are great though for many other jobs)

      I mean, I’ve moved quite a bit in a mini van, you’d be surprised what will fit in there. There are very few things I haven’t been able to get in to the back of a minivan. Modern pick up trucks do not have the cargo capacity a minivan does.

      And if you’re worried about it, cargo vans will absolutely be able to handle it. Just about anything you buy is going to be built to a size to accommodate shipping it.

      And, any big box store will happily rent you a pickup truck should that need ever arise. 25 bucks for the few hours you need it, if you’re really worried about it.
