What is Dry Van Shipping?

Dry Van Shipping is a type of cargo transportation using a dry van trailer, which is a standard, fully enclosed trailer designed to protect cargo from the elements. Dry van trailers are constructed of solid walls, a roof, and a rear door, making them suitable for transporting a wide variety of dry goods and non-perishable items. They are the most common type of trailers used in trucking and ground transportation and are preferred for the transportation of goods that do not require temperature control or specialized handling.

 

Dry van shipping offers security, protection from weather conditions, and versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of products and industries.
