Always.

Anyone who leaves their van unlocked for any reason deserves anything that happens as a result.

Also, I never, ever, ever, leave the keys in the ignition if I'm not sitting in the drivers seat. Even if I get out to make sure the back doors are shut, the keys go with me.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

Interior doors are locked but it's difficult to lock the load bay when driving a pick up !

I don't think you're proper windowcleaners if you don't lock the van. I bet you've only got one van too.

Can lock the cab but leave the rear doors open. Full bulkhead so the only things to nick are the back. Ususualy only a pure freedom pole and it would take 2 people to lift it out!! The other bits and bobs in the back are not worth nicking.

Generally I don't lock it because:
it's on the custys driveway and it seems quite safe
it's in the road but generally a good area so seems quite safe (I don't clean crap areas)
If I do lock it, I can shut the back door on the hose without pinching it so no problem (I use 50m of pole hose as my main hose).
