Empty Dry Van weight?

Ruffly 10,000 lbs. Trailer tandems on an empty trailer are about 7500 lbs.

 

Maybe this will help you.
My reefer is 15200 full of fuel (when brand new).
Knock off about 1700 pounds for the unit (from carrier website), 75 gallons of fuel (500), down to 13000, then whatever you figure the weight of insulation compared to what your walls roof and floor might weigh for a dry van, as well as fuel tank, lines, etc. I'd guess you are somewhere in the 10-12 range for a dry box.

 

I haul dry van. I know my bobtail is 18900. I know my dry weight with the empty trailer is about 34,750.

34750-18900=15850 for the empty trailer.

 

About same here for a Wabash

 

13,300 is the actual Cat Scale weight of a 2022 Great Dane dry van.

I know this because My state requires a empty scale ticket in order to register a trailer.

 

I need to do the same in about a week. Did you disconnect from the trailer on the cat scale?

 

how else would you get the empty weight come on really

 

Yes, I disconnected. Was a pain and I did it at night so I wouldn’t hold anyone up.

 

By simply just subtracting your tractor weight from the gross total.

I didn’t want to confuse the county so I just weighed the trailer by itself.
