Box Truck

A box truck / straight truck / cube van

These vehicles are defined as trucks without a separate trailer attached by an axle. They range from Class 3 to Class 7 trucks with up to a 33,000- pound gross vehicle weight.

A box truck is designed to navigate urban locations without much difficulty, making it a great option for local freight-hauling jobs. Choosing the right size truck can minimize expenses and maximize profits.

More places to secure large objects

The more freight you can transport at once, the fewer trips are required each workday. This can save your company money on fuel expenses while cutting down on your drivers’ travel time

Box trucks boast a variety of loading methods

You can find box trucks with pull-out ramps, which requires you to manually lift and secure a metal loading ramp each time you load your truck. Hydraulic lifts are more costly but freight haulers and companies investing in their fleet, the speed, dependability and convenience of a hydraulic lift turn the extra expense into extra
profit!

In many states, box truck drivers need a Class B license

Class B truck drivers can be 18 years old, while Class A truck drivers must be 21 to get
their commercial drivers license
