Sectional van trailer having detachable, interchangeable compartments capable of forming a continuous van body with accompanying system for forming shelf decks and partition walls within cargo holding sections
A sectional van trailer including a plurality of van sections or cargo compartments which are secured to a trailer frame provides advantages when moving both household goods and/or commercial freight. The van sections may be individually removed and left at a location for loading or unloading providing weather-tight individual containers for the goods disposed therein. When interconnected, each van section may remain an individual compartment or may be joined with one or more adjacent van sections to form a continuous van body. A tractor mounted hoist apparatus is provided to allow a lone truck operator to move the van sections between the ground, and the trailer frame, a storage stand, or a truck frame. Since the individual van sections may be removed from a trailer, stored, and resecured to a different trailer frame, efficient transportation of both household goods and commercial freight by truck to a final destination is possible. Also included is a system for removably constructing shelf decks and partition walls within the cargo compartment or other cargo holding section which can be stored as part of the cargo section wall.
