    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a dry van trailer?

    A dry van trailer is an enclosed, non-temperature-controlled trailer used for transporting dry goods and general freight. It's the most common type of semi-trailer in the trucking industry, protecting cargo from weather and theft.

    How many cubic feet is a 53 foot trailer?

    A standard 53-foot dry van trailer has approximately 3,489 cubic feet of cargo space. Interior dimensions are typically 53' long x 102" wide x 110" tall (8.5' x 9.17'), providing maximum capacity for palletized freight with 26 standard pallet positions.

    What is the difference between a vented van trailer and dry van?

    A vented van trailer has small vents or openings that allow air circulation, typically used for produce, onions, or cargo that generates heat. A standard dry van is fully sealed with no ventilation, ideal for general freight that needs complete protection from weather and moisture.
