Straight Truck Expedited Freight Services
Reliable, Flexible, and Built for Bigger Urgent Shipments
When your shipment is too large for a sprinter van but still demands speed, security, and direct delivery, straight trucks, also known as box trucks, are the ideal solution. At The Expedited Company, we specialize in straight truck expedited freight services designed for time-critical shipments that require more space without sacrificing speed.
From palletized freight to high-value cargo, straight trucks bridge the gap between small vehicle expedite and full truckload shipping—delivering efficiency, protection, and rapid transit across local, regional, and nationwide lanes. A straight trucks allows you to move substantially larger and heavier freight than a sprinter van without having to pay for a full 53′ truck (a dry van).
What Is a Straight Truck
A straight truck, commonly referred to as a box truck, is a single-unit vehicle where the cargo box is permanently attached to the cab. Unlike tractor-trailers, straight trucks are more maneuverable, faster to dispatch, and ideal for expedited freight shipments that need dedicated, direct transport.
These vehicles typically offer:
- Up to 10–12 pallet capacity depending on configuration
- Payload capacity ranging from 5,000 to 12,000 pounds (the majority handle about 7,500 lbs)
- Enclosed cargo space for protection from weather and damage
- Liftgate and pallet jack options for easy loading and unloading
Please note not all trucks have liftgate and pallet jack so this is something we will need to know in advance along with who is loading/offloading the truck so your pricing reflects the exact service required from the outset.
This makes straight trucks perfect for expedited pallet shipping, crate delivery, and commercial freight transport.
When to Use Straight Truck Expedited Freight
Straight trucks are the go-to choice when your shipment requires more room than a van but does not justify the cost or size of a full tractor-trailer.
Common use cases include:
- Palletized freight shipments that need direct delivery
- Crated equipment or machinery parts
- High-value or sensitive cargo requiring enclosed transport
- Multi-stop expedited deliveries
- Trade show materials and display equipment
For businesses that rely on fast, dependable logistics, straight trucks provide the perfect balance of capacity, speed, and cost efficiency.
