53-Foot Dry Vans: The Reliable Choice for High-Capacity Freight

Types of 53-Foot Dry Van Trailers
53-foot dry van trailers come in various models from renowned manufacturers such as Wabash, Great Dane, and Utility. Known for their versatility, these truck-and-trailer combinations boast the highest freight capacity on the road, making them an ideal choice for a wide range of shipping needs. 

Specifications and Design of a Dry Van Trailer
A 53-foot dry van is the quintessential semi-truck and trailer, featuring a long, rectangular box pulled by a semi-truck tractor. These trailers typically measure between 48 to 53 feet in length, 102 inches in width, and 110 inches in height, with up to six axles.

Most dry vans are equipped with hinged rear doors, although some models include roll-up doors, lift gates, or additional side doors for easier cargo access. Unlike refrigerated trailers, dry vans are not temperature-controlled and are generally unsuitable for perishable or frozen freight, except in rare circumstances.

Unlike flatbed trailers, dry vans are fully enclosed, offering superior protection for freight from weather and other external elements while ensuring secure transportation.

Safe and Efficient Transportation
Dry van trailers are designed to ensure the secure and efficient transport of non-perishable goods, ranging from construction materials and auto parts to healthcare equipment. Constructed with lightweight aluminum sides, durable weathertight hardwood or aluminum floors, and varying levels of wall protection to guard against damage from forklifts and pallets, these trailers offer numerous advantages for shipping.

As long as your freight is not hazardous, perishable, or wet, a 53-foot dry van is an ideal choice for cross-country, interstate, and intrastate transportation.
