Our dry van shipping services

A leading dry van shipping company, HMD Trucking provides a comprehensive range of dry van services for any type of cargo that does not require a temperature-controlled trailer. Goods enclosed inside dry vans are reliably protected from unfavorable weather conditions, tampering, and theft, making this transportation method a perfect option for most industries.

A dry van load can be palletized, boxed, placed loosely inside the van, or secured with straps and other fixtures for extra protection from accidental damage. In addition, our clients can choose between full, partial, and less than a truckload (LTL) options to optimize the cost of every shipment depending on their immediate business need.

If you are interested in getting a quote for your next delivery, don’t hesitate to contact us right away. Our experienced managers will analyze your shipping requirements and recommend the most cost-efficient solutions and cargo-handling options.
