What are Box Van Trailers?

Boxvan trailers are enclosed, solid-sided trailers primarily used for transporting goods efficiently and securely. Ideal for parcel carriers, high-security loads, and retail products like garments, these trailers offer excellent protection from the elements. Typically loaded through the rear, they can be equipped with tail-lifts for easy ground-level access.
