About Moving Drop-Frame Van Semitrailers

Drop-frame van semitrailers have a dual-height deck, maximizing the trailer’s enclosed space with a lowered floor to increase cargo capacity and allow for taller freight and higher stacks of pallets or boxes. Moving drop-frame van semitrailers are often equipped with air suspensions to better protect customers’ belongings and to prevent loads from shifting during transit. They also often have multiple sets of side doors for better access to all parts of a load to better facilitate moving operations.

Comparisons To Dry Vans

In addition to hauling all kinds of household items, moving drop-frame van trailers tend to have much lower floors than traditional dry van semitrailers. This reduced height, simplifies loading and unloading for household moves and other use cases that require frequent trips in and out of the trailer, and where loading docks may not be available.

Moving Van Design

Many moving drop-frame van semitrailers are 53 feet (16.1 meters) long and offer around 4,000 cubic feet (113 cubic meters) of cargo space. Moving drop-frame van semitrailers typically have exterior heights reaching 13.5 ft (4.1 m) to allow for the highest legally permissible ceiling height. The lower main floor often encompasses most of the dual-height deck, so movers have plenty of space to transport appliances and boxes. Shorter moving van trailers are also available for smaller moves and for use in areas where a full-length trailer would prove difficult to maneuver.
