Vans for dry-freight transport

Vans for transporting industrial goods, furniture and appliances: dry bodies, sides, tarpaulins.

How to choose a vehicle

What is carried by dry-freight transport

Furniture, home appliances, building materials, packaged goods, e-commerce — everything that needs no temperature mode but must arrive dry and intact. The key selection parameters are body volume, pallet capacity and the loading method.

Which body to choose

A closed dry-freight van protects cargo from weather and the road; a side door speeds up handover at stops. For pallet logistics with side loading — a eurotent or a sliding tarpaulin. For a crane and oversized loads — a flatbed platform.

Why COND

Light 25–50 mm sandwich panels give more payload, the anodised aluminium on the edges does not rust, and the metal inserts hold the fasteners for the whole service life of the body — 10–15 years.

Volume versus payload

Dry freight almost always runs out of space before it runs out of payload: furniture, packaging and appliances fill the body long before the vehicle reaches its weight limit. So for dry freight you take the longest and tallest body the chassis allows, rather than the chassis with the biggest payload.

Work from the internal dimensions and the pallet layout: an extra five centimetres of width is sometimes a whole extra row and sometimes just air. You can check the layout for your own dimensions in the configurator.

How it is loaded, and what follows

Loading from the rear by forklift means a standard rear frame with swing doors. Loading from the side in a warehouse with a narrow aisle means a side door or a sliding tarpaulin. Unloading with no dock, straight to the ground, means a tail lift — which also decides how much payload is left for the goods.

A dry-freight body needs no cooling, so the panel is thin — 25 mm — and the attention goes to strength: a floor of laminated plywood or treadplate aluminium, lashing tracks at two levels, and kick protection along the bottom edge of the walls against pallet impacts.

Suitable bodies

Almaty

What we allow for in Almaty

Dry-freight delivery around Almaty is first of all about loading: a side door, lashing rails, a flat floor for a trolley. There is no temperature range here, so the panel is thin and the usable volume is larger. We build the body at our own production site in Almaty and hand the vehicle over from the yard.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about dry freight haulage

Almost always volume. Furniture, packaging and appliances fill the body long before the weight limit, so the choice is the longest and tallest body the chassis allows, not the highest-payload chassis.
25 mm: no cooling is needed inside, and a thin panel gives back more usable volume and payload. The attention goes to strength — a laminated plywood or chequer-plate aluminium floor, lashing rails at two levels, and protection along the bottom of the walls against pallet impacts.
Directly. Loading from the rear by forklift — a standard rear portal with hinged doors. Loading from the side in a warehouse with a narrow aisle — a side door or a curtainsider. Unloading from ground level without a ramp — a tail lift, which also determines how much payload is left for the goods.
It has to be worked out from the internal dimensions and the pallet layout: an extra five centimetres of width is sometimes a whole additional row and sometimes just air. The configurator shows the layout for specific dimensions.
No. A 25 mm panel is not rated for a temperature range — an isothermal body is built from a panel of 40–80 mm or thicker. If cooling may be needed later, an isothermal body is chosen from the start.
