Lorry Body Sizes & Models
USRI manufactures a standard range of 8 lorry body sizes, the USE series, from compact 7 ft builds to large 23 ft bodies, available across all product types.
Choosing the right lorry body size depends on the cargo you carry and the chassis you're building on, not just the product type. USRI's standard USE-series range covers 8 sizes, from the compact USE 205 to the large-capacity USE 2515, and every size is available across USRI's full product range, including aluminium, steel half, canopy, container, and other body types. Custom dimensions are also available for cargo or chassis requirements outside the standard range.
