Our team at DTI Trucks is proud to serve the transportation and trucking industry. Continue reading to learn about some of the most common uses for commercial trucks. 

What is a Commercial Truck?

By definition, a commercial truck is any vehicle that is used for commercial, or business, use. Typically they are specifically used to move items for commercial use! They are also often defined by their weight classification, which is determined by the Department of Transportation.

1. Long Haul Deliveries

Many commercial trucks are used to complete long-haul deliveries. This means drivers will spend a few days completing one delivery across several thousand miles! You can find commercial trucks with built-in sleeping quarters to accommodate multi-day trips. 

2. Local Deliveries

Not all commercial deliveries will require many days of travel. Instead, some commercial trucks are utilized for short local deliveries, sometimes many trips in a single day! Small and large businesses alike will have a business model that requires daily deliveries or multiple locations to deliver to in a day, making box trucks and other commercial truck models ideal for the job. 

3. Special Events

Commercial trucks can also be specifically used for special events. Whether your favorite band keeps their equipment in a semi-trailer or utilizes a charter bus for transportation, they are utilizing commercial trucks to complete their show! Another example of special events that can utilize commercial trucks include emergency response organizations that are collecting donations to be shipped.
