Beat the Freeze: Van Drivers Urged to Bring Tools Indoors

Plumbers by their work van

Van drivers have been urged to bring their tools in from the cold to prevent thousands of pounds worth of damage as outdoor temperatures are set to plummet.

Vehicle leasing giant Leasevan.co.uk issued the advice after weather forecasters predicted a cold spell could be on the way with snow and ice warnings issued across the country.

Bitter temperatures are set to roll in as the MET Office warn another Beast from the East could be on its way.

This could see the country grind to a halt under another blanket of heavy snow and ice but for van drivers it is not just their daily commutes that are affected.

The experts have urged tradesmen to protect their tools from potentially damaging sub-zero temperatures by bringing them indoors at night.
