The cargo box of container semi-trailer belongs to the category of goods and is integrated with the goods. Its body is only a frame, and the cargo box can be unloaded together when unloading. The cargo box of the van semi trailer belongs to the category of the body. The goods are only loaded in the cargo box, and the goods need to be removed from the cargo box scattered when unloading.
