General Dry Van Trailers
General dry van trailers are the most common dry trailers. A standard general dry van trailer will measure up to 53 feet which is the general maximum dry trailer length. With general dry trailers, businesses will be able to make a choice depending on their line of work since they offer a wide range of options to choose from.
Pup Trailers
Pup trailers are a shorter version of dry vans and can be anything between 26 to 29 feet. While general dry trailers haul more cargo, pup trailers can be used to make local deliveries and oftentimes are used for over-the-road doubles and triples. It is easier to make deliveries or pickups using pup trailers in urban centers like Ft. Lauderdale.
Kenworth
Founded in 1923, Kenworth has maintained a reputation for the production of high quality and reliable dry vans. The company operates as a subsidiary of Paccar although it also has a few other subsidiaries it controls.
Western Star
It is a subsidiary of the Daimler Group which is based in North America. Western Star was founded in 1967 in Cleveland, Ohio, although it has its headquarters in Portland, Oregon. Western Star produces some of the best dry vans among other trailers and truck types.
Strick Trailers LLC

The company has ensured to use cutting-edge technology to maintain excellent products. The company has different dealership locations and throughout its years of operation, it has produced high-performance dry trailers that outdid their counterparts.
Hauling Clothes and Other Textile Products
Dry vans can also be used to transport clothes and other textile items. They don't necessarily require temperature control during transportation, they can be hauled using dry trailers. They are enclosed and as such, don’t risk bad weather like rain or extreme heat which may tamper with the quality of the clothes. Also, most clothing and textile items are transported in bales and bundles, so huge quantities can be transported in one single trip.
Moving Household Goods
Dry vans are one of the most convenient ways of moving household items. Dry trailers are enclosed and are big enough to accommodate most if not all of the household items needed to be moved. From big appliances to heavy furniture and everything in between. Also, dry trailers offer convenience in so many ways, like protecting the items and keeping them intact during transportation.
Food Transportation
Dry trailers can also be used for the transportation of food for short distances. Also, goods that do not spoil easily, and some types of beverages can also be transported using dry trailers. The good thing is, the dry vans are high enough to allow the goods to be stacked on each other. This means that more goods will be transported, as long as they do not exceed the maximum cargo load the trailer can carry. Also, light-duty dry vans are a great choice for businesses to transport goods around the city.
Delivery Services
Most delivery services require enclosed trailers like dry vans to get the job done. Most dry trailers, for example, pup trailers are used to make pick-ups and deliveries. Their size, which is smaller than the general dry van trailers allows them to easily maneuver urban spaces and make the required pick-up or delivery. Also, dry van trailers can be used to carry a wide range of loads which makes them ideal for delivery businesses in different fields.
Heavy Machinery Haulage
Dry trailers are widely used for the transportation of huge machinery. They are mostly heavy duty and hence can easily haul heavy machinery without compromising on efficiency in terms of performance. What’s more, hauling huge and heavy machinery via dry vans reduces possible risks for road transportation since the trailers are fully enclosed. Some of these types of machinery include building machinery, big ship, and aircraft parts and construction materials, etc.
