As someone who used to drive trucks, they're actually quite common, and similarly proportional in numbers to refer trailers vs dry vans, which I want to say is 5-20% of the industry.
- dpark 9y agoInteresting. I wonder what percentage of shipping containers actually reaches trucks though. A lot probably go to trains or get unloaded at the shipping yard.
- Aloha 9y agoBasically 100% You need a way to convey the can from the port (or railhead) to the receiver, and that is 100% by road, as you cant unload a can while its on the rail - cans are made to be put into a truck dock like a trailer.
