I currently only own a bicycle. It's fine for distance but sometimes I need to haul heavy bulky items around, which is difficult on a bicycle. I'm considering buying a milkfloat, are they any good? I don't want a car or a van.

You could get some type of cargo bicycle or tricycle. Possibly with electric support.

Piaggio Porter is a very similar van to this one for european markets btw.
Born form an italian/japanese collaboration.
Someday I will buy one for shits and giggles.

Ride your bike to a truck rental place and rent a truck when you sometimes need to haul heavy shit around. That is what it means to live in a society.

Milk floats have a very limited range. They only run for a few hours each morning at like 10mph around a couple of streets

These cars weren't made for highways. They were mede for narrow Japanese villages where you go a maximum of 20mph.

lately I feel like cargobikes are total overkill for most people.

wouldn't a decent bike+ trailer be the better option ?
sure it's not as cool as a cargo bike but those cost a fortune.
