About Tank Semitrailers

---

Polar Chemical Transport Trailer

Tank semitrailers are essentially long, cylindrical storage containers on wheels built to transport massive quantities of liquids, gases, and more. Although the particulars may vary depending on the manufacturer and model, tank trailers are usually constructed of aluminum, stainless steel, or carbon steel.

The new and used tank trailers listed for sale on MarketBook.ca are highly specialized equipment, and as such are divided into more than a dozen subcategories according to payload type. This is a key factor, as specific tank trailer types can rarely be used to transport any other substance(s) without modifications. You can find out more about tank trailer types by visiting the MarketBook.ca subcategory pages, including the asphalt and hot oil, chemical and acid, crude oil, frac, gasoline and fuel, industrial gas, liquid food-grade, non-code, pneumatic and dry bulk, sanitary, vacuum, waste and sludge, and water tank trailer areas.

Wet vs. Dry Tank Semitrailers

One key difference between the types of cargo that trailers in the dry bulk and liquid bulk transport industries are used to haul is that transporting liquid bulk cargo tends to be much more expensive. Additionally, there are many strict regulations concerning the transport of liquid bulk cargo that don’t affect the dry bulk transport industry. Another key consideration when hauling liquids vs. dry bulk materials is that liquids commonly leave behind a measurable quantity of residue in a tank trailer after it has been unloaded, which requires washing the trailer out before the next load can be hauled.
