Dry van trailers are the most common and cost-effective way to ship general freight across Canada and the United States. Loadify connects you with 2,170+ pre-screened dry van carriers offering FTL and LTL services — with real-time tracking, competitive rates, and a dedicated team managing every shipment from pickup to delivery. From furniture and automotive parts to canned goods and building materials, if it's dry and non-hazardous, we can move it.
No special equipment or accessories needed — dry van shipping keeps your freight costs low while delivering reliable, weatherproof protection.
Load bars and logistics straps secure your freight throughout transit, preventing shifting and damage on every haul — short or long.
Whether your shipment fills a full trailer or shares space with other cargo, Loadify offers both FTL and LTL dry van options to match your volume and budget.
Full Truckload (FTL) is the right choice when your cargo fills an entire 48- or 53-foot trailer — offering faster transit, dedicated equipment, and lower damage risk. Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) makes sense when your shipment doesn't require a full trailer, letting you share space and reduce per-unit shipping costs. Loadify offers both options with access to thousands of pre-screened dry van carriers across Canada and the US.
48' and 53' trailers available for any load size
Full weather protection — rain, snow, and road debris
