What do Europeans use for hauling stuff? The utilitarian use of one can easily justify its ownership by usually at least 1 per family here in Canada.
I noticed vehicles like compact vans and Defenders 110 in my last trip to the UK, but to me there is obvious advantages to having an open box.
I thought maybe fuel price would be limiting as 1/2 tons are the norm here, but also there is a plethora of 'mini (and 1/4 ton) trucks' available in the international market.

Why do you need a pickup to haul your kitchen knives down to the police station for binning?
most people just use their normal cars
or you can rent a van
Depending on what object needs to be hauled from where to where and how frequently you do it:
1. Home delivery on new items, usually free or for a negligible charge.
2. Rental vans for cheap daily rates.
3. Utility trailers since even VW Golf sized cars are rated to tow between 3000 and 4000 lbs with trailer brakes here and much more than that isn't permitted by the basic license class anyway.
If you're looking for more specialized or capable towing equipment you'll be looking at a different license class and then full size Euro vans or Defender type SUVs that can tow 7700 lbs, or beyond that actual medium duty trucks since it'll likely be a commercial venture anyway.
What do you define as hauling stuff? Many Europeans buy wagons, since they're good on fuel and not expensive to insure, usually most of the things we need to carry fit inside just fine.
is it true that canadicucks have to pay almost $40k for that?!
Probably just rent a truck when they need to haul. I see a lot of enclosed transport vans too.
Transit vans, or we just get it delivered to our door and carried into the garage for us.
Vans, we also have small cargo cars and long station wagons like Volvos.
American trucks are becoming more popular in the Netherlands tho, not sure why but rich people like them even though they dont really have a purpose in our country since the roads are fantastic and flat
