Our Dry Van Carrier Services

Flexible dry van shipping options for palletized, boxed, high-value, expedited, LTL, partial, and full truckload freight.

LTL Shipping

Move freight ranging from a single pallet to half a truck with access to more than 70 top LTL carriers, real-time rates, booking, tracking, and claims support.

Truckload Shipping

Secure full dry van capacity for larger shipments that need fewer touchpoints, faster transit, and reliable coverage through an extensive nationwide truckload carrier network.

Partial Truckload

Use partial truckload for freight that is too large for typical LTL but does not require a full trailer, helping balance cost, speed, and handling.

Expedited Freight

Prioritize time-sensitive dry goods with expedited LTL or truckload options designed for faster transit, priority handling, and tighter delivery windows when schedules matter.

Multi-Stop Shipping

Consolidate pickups or deliveries across several locations in one truckload route, improving efficiency for distribution, retail replenishment, and multi-location shipment planning.

High Value Freight

Protect valuable cargo with enhanced security, monitoring, supplemental cargo insurance options, and careful carrier selection for freight requiring additional oversight in transit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are dry goods in trucking?

Dry goods in trucking are non-perishable freight items that do not require temperature control, tanker equipment, or specialized containment. Common examples include boxed products, palletized retail goods, furniture, packaging materials, machinery parts, electronics, and building supplies. Dry goods are typically moved in enclosed dry van trailers or LTL networks, where cargo is protected from weather during transit.
