What Is a 5 Ton Truck?
A 5 ton truck, also known as a straight, cube, or box truck, has a large enclosed cargo area mounted on its chassis. These trucks usually accommodate up to 10,000 lbs of cargo and are commonly used for local or regional deliveries. A2E Cartage’s fleet of 5 ton trucks includes options with tailgates, ramps, and logistic tracking systems to support secure and efficient deliveries.
Our trucks are maintained to meet commercial standards and operated by experienced, safety-certified drivers who understand the unique demands of Manitoba’s roads and weather conditions.

Guidelines
Rules and Limitations
While 5 ton trucks are incredibly flexible, there are a few considerations to keep in mind:
Maximum payload typically ranges between 8,000–10,000 lbs
Cargo dimensions must fit within the truck’s box (approx. 24–26 feet long)
Ideal for palletized or boxed items — oversized or irregular cargo may require alternate equipment
Liftgate requests must be made during booking for locations without loading docks
Limited availability during peak hours — we recommend scheduling ahead
