Vehicle Options

The right vehicle depends on freight size, weight, loading requirements, route, and timing. Sonic Delivery uses the shipment details to match each load with the equipment profile that can move it quickly and correctly.

From small urgent parts to full trailer shipments, Sonic matches the load to the vehicle instead of forcing the shipment into a standard freight lane. Sonic dispatch reviews each shipment to confirm the right equipment for the freight, route, and deadline.

Vehicle Classes

Cargo Van

Best for small urgent freight, replacement parts, boxed freight, and hand-loadable shipments.

Sprinter

Useful when freight requires more length, height, or payload than a cargo van, while still needing fast ground movement.

Straight Truck

Appropriate for larger palletized shipments, heavier loads, and freight that needs a box truck profile.

53-Foot Tractor-Trailer / Drive-In

Used for larger freight, full trailer movement, and loads that require a standard dry van configuration.

Flatbed

Best for freight that is oversized, side-loaded, crane-loaded, or not suited to a closed trailer.

Hot-Shot

Designed for urgent smaller loads that need a truck-with-trailer expedited setup. Equipment may vary by truck size and brand depending on the load, route, and availability.

Match the Vehicle to the Load

Send Sonic the freight dimensions, weight, pickup and delivery locations, ready time, and deadline. Dispatch will recommend the right equipment.
