53' Dry Van Dimensions
Also called: dry van trailer, 53 foot trailer, enclosed trailer
A dry van is a fully enclosed, non-refrigerated trailer. It protects freight from weather and is loaded from the rear, usually at a dock.
Dry vans move most palletized and boxed freight in the US — consumer goods, packaged products, and anything that has to stay dry.
