Dry Van Shipping Services
Delivering freight with our dry van shipping services at competitive market prices, regardless of the season.
Dry van shipping services are the most commonly used type of truckload shipping. It refers to moving freight in sealed, fully enclosed trailers. These trailers are adjusted to moving large volumes of goods, freight, and equipment that do not require temperature control. Dry van trucks are protected from the external influence of weather and other conditions, and that’s why these trailers are called ‘dry.’ Most of the dry van trailers can haul up to 43,000 – 45,000 lbs.
Refrigerated Shipping
Ensure your temperature-sensitive goods will arrive to the proper destination every time through our reliable refrigerated shipping services.
Refrigerated trailers, or reefers, are sealed, enclosed trailers just like dry vans, but are equipped with temperature control. These trailers are specifically made for moving temperature-sensitive or perishable goods.
Refrigerated shipments are extremely important for our everyday lives. The distribution of groceries, fresh produce, medical supplies, flowers, consumer packaged goods, and other important products depend on refrigerated shipping services. Most commonly shipped goods are seasonal, which makes reefers highly in-demand equipment. It is crucial for shippers to properly plan their deliveries and manage supply chains in order to secure the needed capacity.
Flatbed Shipping
What is a flatbed trailer?
Flatbed trailers are a common type of equipment that allows over-dimensional freight shipments. Flatbed is an open type of trailer with sides and no roof, therefore, it is not protected from external influence. Flatbed shipping is common among industrial shippers that move bulky equipment, machinery, steel, pipes, rigs, and other freight of unusual sizes and shapes. Industrial freight is our specialty, so you can be confident your flatbed shipment will be handled by a team of seasoned industrial professionals.
