Available Box Truck Types

On the COOP platform, common variations of Box Trucks listed for rent in Boston, MA include:

Light-Duty Box Truck

Light-duty box trucks, on average, can hold between 8,500 lb. to 14,500 lb. in load capacity. Their box cargo area is large enough to transport heavier and larger cargo than a small van, but the light-duty box truck offers higher fuel efficiency due to lower emissions than larger box truck options. This is also a great truck for renters looking for a box truck that is easier to drive and more easily maneuverable.

Medium-Duty Box Truck

A medium-duty box truck is the next step-up from the light-duty box truck. With a hauling capacity of 15,000 lb. to 33,000 lb., this style of box truck will be larger on average than a light-duty box truck. This variation is a great choice for renters that need to do some heavy-duty hauling or towing in the Boston, Massachusetts area. These trucks also, due to their larger size, typically have larger diesel engines for better driving and higher fuel efficiency.

Conventional Box Truck

A conventional box truck is defined by the placement of its engine, which is found in the front hooded nose. The word conventional is used to refer to this type of truck because this is the most common variation of engine placement in box trucks. Their popularity is paired with the benefits of a more comfortable drive due to the longer driver’s cab, as well as a quieter driver’s cab than the alternative cabover engine placement option.
