Operating from the DFW area, Cowtown Express offers a versatile straight truck fleet to transport standard FTL and LTL shipments. Our experienced team provides tailored solutions to minimize operating costs, saving time and money.
Our proficient logisticians, DOT-certified drivers, and road-worthy carriers work together to deliver the highest quality service and fastest delivery turnovers while still ensuring your freight arrives safely and securely. With our team of experts, you're guaranteed affordable and reliable box truck delivery services.
Our box truck carriers are ideal for swiftly moving standardized cargo over long or short distances. When compared to standard flatbed trailers, they offer better protection against the elements and improved temperature control. Logistics are also simpler for straight box vans, as they don't require permits. The combination of our straight vans, as well as a vast network of long-standing carriers allows Cowtown Express to help match any capacity.
This service is designed for customers who have a large volume of cargo that needs to be transported. With full truckload shipping, the entire truck is dedicated to one customer, ensuring that their goods are the only ones on board. This type of service is often more cost-effective than LTL (less-than-truckload) shipping for larger shipments.
Multiple types of cargo require temperature-controlled transportation to maintain their quality and safety. Our straight truck delivery service provides temperature-controlled options for customers who need to transport goods such as perishable food items or pharmaceuticals.
When time is of the essence, our expedited trucking service provides a fast and reliable option for customers who need their cargo delivered quickly. With expedited box truck transport, we can provide same-day or next-day delivery for urgent shipments.
This service is ideal for customers who need to transport smaller, time-sensitive shipments. Our hot-shot shipping service utilizes smaller straight trucks to provide fast and efficient transportation for urgent cargo.
For customers who have time-sensitive shipments that require immediate attention, our time-critical delivery service is the perfect solution. Our team will work closely with customers to ensure that their cargo is delivered on time, every time.
Certain types of cargo require special handling to ensure that they arrive at their destination in pristine condition. Our straight truck delivery service offers options for transporting fragile freight, including protective packaging and careful handling to minimize the risk of damage.
Typically between 14'-26' in length, our cube vans are used to transport standard freight or utilized as expediter trucks for time-critical loads. Some of our straight trucks have a rear door that swings open, while others have roll-ups and even feature a cargo area accessible from the cab. We also offer semi trucks for our customers.
Box trucks also go by the name of cube trucks, cube vans, or bob trucks and can carry a maximum weight of 14,000 pounds or 12 pallets - much more than regular pickup trucks. Cowtown Express provides straight trucks with lift gates, vented trailers, and refrigeration options.
As one of the most common trucks used in logistics, straight trucks carry cargo on the same chassis that supports the cab and power unit. It's a versatile option for transporting smaller items and boxed cargo that can be manually loaded.

Request a quoteBox trucks can be anywhere between 16 feet to 26 feet long, so their weight capacity may vary. However, the maximum gross weight totals 26,000 pounds. Anything over requires a CDC license to operate.
Most straight trucks measure between 10 and 26 feet in length and stand between 8 and 10 feet tall. They can typically carry between 10,000 to 26,000 pounds. Straight trucks that can handle heavier weight limits do exist but may be subject to restrictions, permits, and special licensing.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has many compliance rules regarding any commercial motor vehicle: from transport box trucks to tractor-trailers. They are stipulating maximum carrying capacity, driving hours, and conduct, as well as vehicle safety to which Cowtown Express adheres. Therefore, it’s best to view their website for a comprehensive overview of regulations.
At Cowtown Express, we transport freight across all 48 states, as well as over the border to Canada. If your freight needs to be delivered to a remote area or travel through challenging terrain, we’ll formulate the necessary plans and arrange an escort vehicle. In these cases, we use our exclusive and dedicated trucks.
