How much maximum weight can we put on a 53 feet cargo van?

A standard dry van’s maximum weight capacity is 44,000 - 45,000 pounds. If your palettes are standard-sized (48’ x 40’ x 48), you can fit 26 non-stackable or 52 stackable. Unlike other vans, a dry van cannot accommodate oversized freight as it’s enclosed.

In which states are we allowed to pool double 53 trailers?

Double trailers, each 40 to 53 feet long, are legal in Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Idaho, Montana, Dakota, Nevada, Oregon, South Dakota, and Utah. They’re also legal in Indiana, Florida, Massachusetts, Ohio, and New York, but only on toll roads.

Can you accommodate the dry van deliveries to multiple consignees on the lane?

Yes, our multi-stop option allows for multiple deliveries. The more stops included, the longer the hauling time. Even though we always strive to deliver freight as fast as possible, multi-stops do slow the process ever so slightly. This is important to keep in mind when dealing with urgent deadlines.

How much does dry van transportation cost?

The cost of dry van transportation depends on the size of the consignment, i.e., how many vans you need and the distance traveled. It’s best to contact us with your requirements so that we can provide you with an accurate quote.
