Dry Van Trucking | Heavy Haulers

Dry Van Trucking Benefits

One advantage of using containers to haul is the ability to keep cargo dry and secure during transport. Products are often easier to load into containers as well, since they are often stacked on pallets or placed in boxes. Of course, not all freight can be shipped using standard containers, particularly equipment that might be longer than 53 feet (the standard length of most box trucks) or otherwise configured in an awkward manner. In these cases, specialized trailers like the Step-deck or RGN should be utilized to provide clients with worry-free hauling services.

Dry van trucking is the most common type of bulk transport you'll see on the roads. Most semi-trailers traveling across the country are "dry vans," named so because they can haul a variety of dry goods, from consumer products to containers, pallets and other items. Most truck drivers start out as dry van haulers, as this is the least specialized of the truck types and presents drivers with an almost predictable cycle of pick ups and deliveries to fill their time.

Heavy Equipment and Dry Van Hauling

Some dry van hauls are pre-loaded for you. These drop and hook jobs allow you to focus your time and energy on delivering freight quickly. Other jobs might require you to come with an empty trailer and wait for heavy equipment cargo to be loaded into your container. Live loads like these might take a couple of extra hours at the beginning of your trip, but could also give you time to take care of other business in the area, check out local job boards or meet potential clients. This can be particularly beneficial if you are transporting a LTL load, since you might find clients within the same area who also need shipping services.

Smaller construction equipment, administrative machinery and some types of large-scale products can fit within the confines of a standard-sized container, but most heavy haul items require the use of a flatbed or other non-constrained vessel to accommodate dimensional variations or weight limitations. This usually includes vehicles, farming and construction machinery and other industry-specific tools. Heavy Haulers, the premiere "supersize" transport company in the U.S., can answer questions you might have regarding the transport of large cargo around the country. Give us a call now!
