dog crates van image
Audra
I am looking for an SUV that can fit a total of three dog crates. Rear seats can be up or down, as long as 2 crates pointed out the back and one pointed out the side can fit! Thank you!

What size crates?
Most SUV's can fit 2- 22"x36" (special SUV side-by-side) crates side by side in the back & then a similar sized crate in front of these across, with an end crate door out the side of the vehicle. Some vehicles like a Honda Element or pretty much any Minivan or Van can even fit 2- 24"x36" crates side by side in the back. A Ford Transit offers a LOT of room for crates.
I have a Subaru Forester & I can fit 2- 20"x30" crates side by side easily. I currently have 2 Medium RuffTough Kennels in the back & a Small RuffTough in front of them sitting across facing to the side.
My recommendation is know the size of your crates & take a measuring tape with you when you vehicle shop. Then try your crates in the new vehicle before you finalize the purchase.
A good car sales person will be supportive of your needs.

How to secure dog crates/cages in a van?

Have my own pet services business and recently got a van. How can I secure the crates to the floor when moving? Thanks
Answer
You could get bolts for the floor, custom made. Actually I use a crate in my Peugeot SW and have the rear seats down, so I can use the anchor brackets for the rear seat to attach benching chains to, anchoring the crate as my Whippet is light, and the crate could fly in a crash. Obviously any chain, rope or other attachment would be fine as long as there's an anchor point to attach it to - I just use my old benching chains which I used when I was exhibiting at benched shows (in the UK).
