Not all trailers are the same — and choosing the right one can make or break your load. 🚛📦

Here are some of the most common trailer types and what they’re used for:

📦 Dry Van — The most popular trailer. Fully enclosed and perfect for general cargo like clothes, electronics, and boxed goods. Safe and simple.

❄️ Reefer — A refrigerated trailer used for temperature-sensitive loads like food, beverages, and medicine. If it needs to stay cold — this is the one.

🏗 Flatbed — Open trailer designed for oversized or heavy cargo like steel, machinery, and construction materials. Easy loading, but requires proper securing.

🚛 Bobtail — Not a trailer, but an important term. It means a truck driving without a trailer attached.

Each trailer has its own purpose, rules, and challenges. Knowing the difference helps you choose the right loads and avoid costly mistakes.
