HOW TO BUY THE RIGHT TRUC K BODYWith a variety of customizable Supreme truck bodies serving so many different industries, you’re sure to find the one that’s right for you and your business. We can help guide you to the one best suited for your requirements, and to get started here are a few questions to consider when buying a truck body.

What type of cargo are you hauling?

Perhaps the most important determining factor when choosing your truck body. That’s why we offer rugged workhorses that can be tailored so you can efficiently haul:

• Appliances, office supplies, packages, etc.: see our Signature Van on pages 6-7

• Lumber, Pipe, etc.: see Curtainside (covered solution) on pages 8-9 and Platform/Stake (open solution) on pages 14-15

• Furniture: see Furniture on pages 10-11

• Produce, flowers, meat, seafood, etc.: see the Kold King on pages 12-13

1 How do you load and unload your truck?Whether it’s with a forklift or by hand, we simplify the process for you by:

• Selecting the best truck body type for your business application: see pages 6-15

• Offering optional loading solutions (lift gates, ramps, forklift packages, steps, rear/side doors): see Options Gallery pages 18-22

How much interior cargo space do you need?

Knowing your overall payload capacity is essential for determining what size truck body you need, so here’s what to look for:

• Large, heavy, or bulky payloads: see Signature Van on pages 6-7, Curtainside on pages 8-9, Furniture on pages 10-11, Kold King on pages 12-13, and Platform/Stake on pages 14-15

• Small or light payloads: visit supremecorp.com

Do you need graphics applied to your truck body?

A smooth, rivetless side wall allows your brand graphics to really stand out. To learn more about the display benefits of our side wall solutions, see pages 16-17 for:

• FiberPanel® HC

• FiberPanel® PW

• SignaturePlate™

What options will make your job easier?

From securing your cargo, to special door and floor requirements, to interior lighting, we have the options to match your demands. To see how you can customize your truck body for your business, turn to pages 18-22.
