Types of Semi-Trailers
As a semi-truck driver, it pays to be aware of the different types of trailers out there because each one is designed with a particular purpose in mind. You don’t want to get the wrong trailer for the type of cargo you need to haul. Southern States Utility, with locations in Mississippi and Louisiana, is your Deep South semi-trailer dealer, so below, we’ve elaborated on the various types of semi-trailers you’ll find when you go shopping for one. This should help you to narrow down your choice.
Refrigerated or “Reefer” Trailers
If you want to haul frozen goods, perishable food items or delicate medical equipment like plasma, then you’re going to need a refrigerated trailer that can easily maintain a consistent, cold temperature to prevent spoilage or thawing. Many different types of goods require the thermal efficiency and heavy insulation of a reefer trailer, so it’s a useful type of trailer to have on-hand. These trailers are built to be tough, with tight seals to prevent moisture or cold air from escaping. They also come with temperature management systems to help you control the interior of the trailer for whatever goods you’re carrying.
Flatbed Trailers
Don’t need an enclosure at all? Look into flatbed trailers, which are sturdily built to haul thousands of pounds, but weigh less because they don’t have sides or a roof to them. For very rugged cargo that can handle the elements, flatbeds are the ideal choice. They’re designed to optimize load distribution without putting too much of a burden on their suspension systems, thanks to specially-made beams that are strategically placed for superior load-bearing. Secure your cargo with hardwood nailing strips that run the length of your aluminum deck.
Dry Van Trailers
Dry van trailers are constructed of sturdy, yet lightweight, aluminum exteriors for maximum durability. Their coated, weatherproof floors prevent leaks and will last a much longer time than an unprotected floor. These floors are also designed with a high payload capacity that can easily support thousands of pounds of goods. You can choose from a variety of lengths and widths, and you can even have your dry van trailer lined with plywood if you so desire!
Each of these types of trailers comes with a variety of different additional features and options for color, size and accessories that you can install, so you’re sure to be able to find the right one for your hauling needs. Come by one of our locations in Olive Branch or Richland, MS, and Hammond or Monroe, LA, to take a look at our full stock of new and used semi-trailers for sale. Southern States Utility proudly serves all of our customers throughout the states of Mississippi and Louisiana.
