Box Trucks: The Flexible Solution for Expedited Freight 

Types of Box Trucks
Box trucks come in a variety of models from well-known manufacturers like Isuzu, Hino, Mitsubishi, Freightliner, and Chevrolet. These versatile vehicles offer numerous advantages over Sprinter vans, larger straight trucks, and semi-trailers. Like Sprinter vans, box trucks can be outfitted with refrigerators or freezers for temperature-sensitive cargo or left empty to maximize storage capacity. 

Recognizing Box Trucks
Box trucks are distinguished by their cube-shaped design, earning them nicknames like "straight trucks" or "cube vans." Unlike Sprinter vans, box trucks feature a unibody construction, meaning all parts are attached to a single frame. Most have a separate freight compartment, distinct from the driver’s cab, though some models include an access door between the two areas. 

Key Specifications
Small box trucks typically range from 10 - 16 ft in length (excluding the cab) and measure 96 inches in width. This size makes them larger than Sprinter vans but smaller than larger box trucks and semi-trailers.

Common features include standard rear roll-up doors, though some models may have hinged doors, built-in ramps, lift gates, or additional side doors for easy access to the cargo area. These design options make box trucks adaptable to a variety of shipping needs, whether you're moving bulky freight or time-sensitive goods.
