What Is Dry Van?

Enclosed. Secure. Ready for Anything.

Dry van trailers are the backbone of American freight. An enclosed box trailer protects your cargo from weather, theft, and damage while providing maximum flexibility for palletized, boxed, or crated goods.

UMS Logistics operates a modern fleet of 48 ft and 53 ft dry van trailers, each maintained to the highest DOT standards. Whether you're shipping packaged foods, retail goods, manufacturing parts, or consumer products — we have the capacity and coverage to deliver.
