5-Ton Dry questions.
What can a 5-ton dry van carry?
Dry goods within a payload of about 5 tons in an enclosed box: commercial deliveries and restocking, furniture and appliances, event equipment, and industrial parts and components. DBNS also uses it for general hauling, LTL, local cartage and skid moves.
Do I need a loading dock for a 5-ton delivery?
Not always. DBNS 5-ton dry vans have a hydraulic tailgate lift that lowers freight to ground level, so a dock or forklift is not required at every address. Give dispatch the load's dimensions and weight and describe each site's access so the right equipment is confirmed.
