Equipment explained
What is dry van freight?
An enclosed trailer for freight that does not require active temperature control.
Dry vans are commonly considered for packaged goods, palletized products and other freight suited to an enclosed trailer. The commodity, packaging, dimensions and loading method determine whether the equipment is appropriate.
Trailer size does not establish usable capacity by itself. Weight distribution, equipment specifications and loading requirements must be reviewed for the actual shipment.

Common questions
Plan with the right expectations.
What does full truckload mean?
Full truckload generally dedicates a truck’s freight space to one shipper’s load or shipment plan. It differs from less-than-truckload, where multiple shippers’ freight may share trailer space. Equipment fit still depends on the actual load.
What affects the cost of a truckload shipment?
The lane, date, equipment availability, freight requirements and facility conditions all matter. Extra stops, extended waiting or specialized assistance can also affect the agreed charges. A website inquiry is not a confirmed rate.
Does nationwide mean every lane is available?
No. Nationwide describes the geographic scope of inquiries we welcome. Actual service on a lane depends on the brokerage arrangement, equipment, requirements and availability at the time.
Every load. Every lane. Every person matters.
