Dry Van Shipping
The backbone of American freight: reliable, enclosed, and ready to roll.
Overview
Dry van is the most common trailer type in North American freight, accounting for over 70% of all truckload shipments. These fully enclosed 53-foot trailers protect your freight from weather, theft, and road debris, making them the go-to choice for palletized, boxed, and general commodity freight.
