Available Straight Truck Types

Here are some possible variations of Straight Truck rentals in Detroit

Refrigerated Straight Trucks

Straight trucks can be custom-made with refrigeration systems making them perfect for the transportation of temperature-sensitive freight. These straight trucks are highly versatile, configured to enable the transportation of different types of goods. For instance, the floor can be made out of wood or metal while the temperature systems can be configured as single-temp or multi-temp.

Cab-over-engine Straight Trucks

These types of straight trucks are flat-faced with the engine compartment fitted just below the cab area. When compared to conventional straight trucks, this design helps to enhance visibility for the driver since they can see what is directly in front of them. Visibility is additionally maximized by the driver’s raised position on the hood making them suitable for urban center use and also residential areas. Cab-over-engine straight trucks are flexible giving them the ability to maneuver in streets.

Conventional Straight Trucks

Conventional straight trucks have a protruded cabin where the engine is located. They are strong and have great engine power capable of getting the task at hand efficiently done. However, visibility is usually limited since the driver doesn’t see things that are directly in front of them. This makes them less ideal for residential areas and congested urban centers but perfect for remote areas.
