About the light-duty dropside truck

The KEEYAK Light-Duty Dropside Truck is an open-sided cargo vehicle with hinged side panels around a flat load deck. Operators lower the panels for side or rear access. Floor load capacity is 1.5–2.5 t/m² and deck width is 1.6–2.1 m, depending on the selected body. Check both against the cargo and loading method.

It suits distributors, contractors, retailers, and municipal fleets making frequent local stops. Buyers should match deck size, side-panel arrangement, tie-down provision, and body material to cargo dimensions, handling method, road access, and the selected chassis configuration.

Typical applications

  1. Urban building material delivery

    The drop-side body gives crews direct access to bagged cement, tiles, timber, and fittings where forklifts or manual unloading approach from either side.

  2. Market and retail distribution

    Wholesalers use the open-sided cargo truck for boxed goods and produce requiring frequent stops, quick visual checks, and flexible curbside unloading throughout dense routes.

  3. Landscaping supply transport

    Contractors move tools, plants, fencing, and packaged soil on a flatbed with drop sides, securing each load according to its shape and handling requirements.

  4. Municipal maintenance support

    Public works teams carry barriers, signs, repair materials, and compact equipment between short jobs, using the lowering panels to reduce repetitive lifting during unloading.

Before you order

What loading access does a dropside body provide?

Lowering the side or rear panels exposes the deck for the agreed handling method. For frequent local deliveries, check the cargo dimensions, side-panel arrangement and tie-down positions as well as access at each stop. This open body needs a separate plan for weather-sensitive goods.
