Dry Vans

Among the benefits of a dry van: a dry van provides an enclosed 4-sided enclosure to protect against harsh weather conditions, such as rain, wind, and snow during transit. Regardless of the distance traveled or the season, your delivery will arrive safely at its destination.

Shipping dry van freight does not require any additional services or other special procedures, which reduces the cost of transportation. Even for long-distance shipments, it is one of the most affordable shipping options available.
