There are more DAF LF Box trucks for sale at Truckpages than any other body type. The LF is made into twice as many box trucks as the second most popular, the curtainsider. Not only this, there are more LF box trucks than any other DAF model – in fact there are more DAF LF box trucks for sale than box trucks in ANY make or model. So, if you are a newcomer to the transport business and you are looking for the popular choice of box truck, then a DAF LF should be high on your list. All of the LF box trucks on these pages are the post-2013 Euro 6 models, so you can be reassured about delivering into the ULEZ areas in the UK. The LF box truck range starts at 7.5 tonnes GVW going right up to 18 tonnes in 4×2 configuration. Choice of engines are clear from the model variants available – from the lowly 4-cylinder 150hp to the mighty 7-litre PACCAR PX-7 rated at up to 320hp. You will find these trucks as day cabs and sleeper cabs across the weight range – even at 12 tonnes GVW.
DAF have been selling ready-bodied LF trucks new for a number of years, so you may be fortunate enough to find a used example of a ‘factory box body’ on these pages.
