What are Box Van Trailers?
Solid-sided Box Vans are commonplace in the transport industry and are predominantly used for parcel carriers, high security loads and retail, including garment carriers.
Box Vans are typically loaded through the rear at a bay or via a tail-lift at ground level at the point of delivery.
