Help converting my van

(To continue the theme)

Well, flatbed rates arent easy to get 6$ a mile all miles with 50% deadhead, so im going to move to reefer, i hear its recession-proof.

we can trade trailers and ill just buy 50 or 60 lb of dry ice a week to toss in the van, thatll save weight and fuel.

 

Also glue some styrofoam insulation to the walls. It'll make the dry ice last longer!

 

I figure if I left just enough sidewall material intact ( a straps width) every 10’ It won’t need any securement. Just cut through those pieces after I got to the yard before unloading.

 

You know what, just cut holes in the walls so you can side load. Leave the roof. Now you don't have to tarp!

 

OSB and great stuff spray foam. Save your money and don’t worry about paint. That is way to much of an investment for a first timer.

 

But then you are getting a little close to converting to a livestock trailer territory.

 

Good point. And I'm pretty sure this design isn't going to be able to handle 90mph!

 

I hear that any of the Dot approved conspicuity tape will hold it together at those speeds just fine.

 

I have a van trailer that's just; been "conv. It had sides taken in for scrap by pirates and is sitting on a flat bed trailer and ready to go?
