Used Box Trucks For Sale

Need a used box truck for your delivery, moving, or trades business? Ritchie Bros. has used box trucks in sizes from 10 to 26 feet from brands like Freightliner, International, Hino, and Isuzu, with photos, specs, and inspection reports on every listing.

What size box truck do I need?

Match the box length to your typical load, not just your biggest one: 10-16 ft suits local parcel and trades work, 20 ft covers most household moves and regional delivery, and 24-26 ft handles bulk freight and full household moves. Payload capacity on these trucks typically runs 10,000 to 26,000 lbs GVWR, so confirm the rating matches what you'll actually be hauling.

Gas or diesel box truck - which should I buy?

Diesel holds up better for heavy, long-distance, or daily-use routes, while gas models cost less to buy and maintain for lighter local work. A moving or junk-removal business running frequent short routes often does better with gas; regional freight or daily fleet use usually justifies diesel's durability.

What should I check before bidding on a used box truck?

Cycle the roll-up rear door and any liftgate to confirm smooth operation, check the box interior for water stains or rust that signal a leaking roof or door seal, and inspect the frame and mounting points where the box meets the chassis for corrosion. Also confirm mileage or engine hours line up with the asking price and that the GVWR on the door sticker matches what's listed.

Box truck vs. step van - what's the difference?

A box truck is built on a traditional truck chassis with a separate cab, giving it higher payload and towing capacity, while a step van has a walk-in cab integrated with the cargo area, built for frequent stop-and-go deliveries where the driver gets in and out repeatedly.
