FAQs
Frequently asked questions.
When should a shipper use cargo van versus 26 foot box truck?
Use a cargo van for shipments under 3,000 lbs that need same-day or next-day delivery within a 150-mile radius — typically 1-4 pallets or bulky items that fit a standard cargo van footprint. Use a 26-foot box truck for 4-8 pallet loads, heavy or oversized items requiring a liftgate, or deliveries that need dedicated handling with 2-hour appointment windows. The cost difference is typically 30-40%, so matching the right asset to the shipment profile matters.
How does cargo van and box truck pricing compare to LTL?
Cargo van rates typically run 20-40% more than LTL for equivalent weight on the same lane, but include dedicated handling, faster transit, and firm delivery windows. Box truck rates are 15-30% more than LTL but offer liftgate service, appointment scheduling, and zero shared handling. For time-sensitive, damage-sensitive, or access-restricted deliveries, the premium often pays for itself in avoided redelivery costs and damage claims.
