Why Buy a Box Truck?
If you’re interested in finding a versatile vehicle for your company, you can’t do much better than a box truck. These trucks are full of storage space while also being easy to maneuver, so they can be used in urban areas where larger trucks or trailers might present a problem. Some people refer to box trucks as box vans, cube trucks or even rolling toasters, and they’re appealing to those in many different industries. Keep reading to learn some of the benefits of owning a box truck.
1. Safe Storage Space
The nice thing about a box truck is that its enclosed cargo space keeps your items safe from weather damage, theft and vandalism, both at the destination and while in transit. You can even use it as a temporary secure storage space on your property if you need somewhere to keep tools, materials, equipment or furnishings before they’re transported elsewhere. Some businesses may even use the interior as a sort of shed when they’re not actively using the box truck for deliveries.
2. No More Trailers
Tired of hitching up and hauling around a trailer whenever you need to carry something big or bulky? A box truck can save you time and energy because you don’t have to connect and disconnect something every day. All you need to do is load up your cargo, shut the doors and head out. Box trucks are a great time-saver!
3. Room for Free Advertising
Want to make some money advertising or just have some space for an ad rent-free? The big, flat, white sides of your box truck give you plenty of room to paint an ad or apply a decal. Put up your business’s logo and phone number or allow another business to use the space. Your box truck can essentially double as a mobile billboard!
4. Easy to Drive
Compared to larger trucks, box trucks tend to be one of the easiest options to drive. This is especially true for any company that has a lot of inner-city deliveries to make. Tight streets with cars parked down either side and lots of snug corners make it impossible for a really big semi to back into a delivery bay, but a box truck can just drive right up easily without a lot of finicky maneuvering.
