The Right Truck for Every Street
Metro delivery is an equipment game. Bridges, tunnels, alleys and docks all set the rules — so we keep a fleet that answers every one of them.
Space Shipping dispatches a mixed fleet from Jamesburg, New Jersey, run by independent owner-operators under contract: 53-foot high-cube dry vans, 48-foot trailers, 40- to 45-foot low-height trailers for the Holland and Lincoln tunnels, 28-foot pup trailers with liftgates for mall docks and city streets, liftgate straight trucks for stops without a dock, and tandem- and single-axle tractors — matched to each stop by our dispatch desk and GPS-tracked 24/7.
Matched to the Stop. Dispatched from Jamesburg.
High-Cube Dry Vans
Maximum capacity for volume moves and full truckloads.
Standard Trailers
The workhorse for regional LTL and consolidated loads.
Low-Height Trailers
Purpose-kept for the bridges and tunnels other carriers route around.
Pup Trailers with Liftgates
City-sized, dock-optional — perfect for tight urban stops.
Tandem & Single-Axle Tractors + Liftgate Straight Trucks
Tandems for the heavy loads; single axles and straight trucks to thread congested streets and tight spots.
Owner-operator power. Space Shipping dispatch.Matching Equipment to the Delivery
How dispatch picks the vehicle — the choices that keep a mall, tunnel or storefront delivery on schedule.
| Stop or route | Equipment we send | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Mall dock or stockroom delivery | 28' pup trailer with liftgate; liftgate straight truck | Fits mall docks built for straight trucks; liftgate for dock-free stops |
| Manhattan storefront or flagship | Liftgate straight truck; 28' pup | Metered loading zones, tight streets, 53' restricted |
| Route through the Holland or Lincoln Tunnel | 40–45' low-height trailer | Holland Tunnel 12'6" limit, Lincoln Tunnel 13'0" |
| DC-to-DC or DC-to-store volume | 53' high-cube dry van; 48' trailer | Maximum cube for full and partial truckloads |
| Heavy loads | Tandem-axle tractor | Weight capacity for dense freight |
| Congested streets, alleys, tight yards | Single-axle tractor; straight truck | Shorter wheelbase, easier maneuvering |
Every vehicle is GPS-tracked around the clock and dispatched from our Jamesburg desk. Read more in our mall delivery requirements guide.
