A box truck, like its name, is a truck with a tall, square or rectangle cargo area. Box trucks are also known as straight trucks, box vans, rolling toasters or cube vans. There are many small differences between makes like International, Freightliner, Isuzu, GMC, Ford, Chevy, and Kenworth, but they generally follow similar characteristics. Box trucks are often confused with cargo vans and sprinter vans. Use the Search/Filter button below to refine your search.

Box trucks are usually between 12 and 21 feet long. There are some exceptions to this, but not many in the United States. They have a roll-up door similar to a garage door in the back of the cargo area. Some trucks allow you to access the cargo area from the cab, while on others you can't. The body on a box truck is sometimes called a dry van body or a cargo van. Smaller box trucks often have cabs manufactured for vans.
The cargo areas of box trucks are generally bolted on to the frame, and allow easy hauling for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.
Box trucks are used to haul cargo that is too big for the average car or truck. You'll see them rented out by moving companies like U-Haul and Ryder, where they are used by companies and individuals hauling appliances, boxes and furniture. You generally do not need a commercial driver’s license to drive a box truck, so they are popular with non-professional drivers who need cargo space for short-term transportation jobs like moving from one home or business to another.
Ford, Dodge and Chevy/GMC have been the traditional makers of the cab/chassis for box trucks. However, GMC has stopped making them in recent years. Other manufacturers then use these cab/chassis to attach the cargo boxes to. These manufacturers are called "upfitters" or "body builders."
Box trucks usually range between Class Three and Class Seven in their gross vehicle weight rating, meaning that they are between 12,500 and 13,000 pounds. They are classified as medium duty commercial trucks.
Isuzu, Mitsubishi, Fuso have traditionally made cab/chassis for cab over style box trucks where the cab is right above the front axle.
