Help and advice
<p><small>[Your user agent does not support frames or is currently configured not to display frames. However, you may visit <a href="/vehicles/new-to-trucks/payload.aspx?content=true">the related document.</a>]</small></p><p>The first critical thing to determine is simply the weight that you are transporting. The more the payload, the heavier the truck needed. Most trucks are based on gross vehicle weight (gvw). This is simply the total weight of the vehicle including any body, load, fuel, driver, passengers, tools etc. The Canter is available in 3.5 tonne gvw, 6.5 tonne gvw and 7.5 tonne gvw versions. Payloads will vary depending on bodyweight etc. but typically you’d be looking at:</p><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td width="189" valign="top"> </td><td width="189" valign="top">Typical max payload with a dropside body<img src="/media/2818/6c18_dropside_s2_150x69.jpg" width="150" height="69" alt="Dropside Truck"/><br /><?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="CementBags" /></td><td width="189" valign="top">Typical max payload with a curtain side<br /> <img src="/media/3018/3c11_curtain_grey_crop_125x69.jpg" width="125" height="69" alt="Curtain side"/><br /><?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="WaterBottles" /></td></tr><tr><td width="189" valign="top">Canter 3.5t</td><td width="189" valign="top">1200 kg or 48 bags of cement</td><td width="189" valign="top">1000 kg or 52 water bottles</td></tr><tr><td width="189" valign="top">Canter 6.5t</td><td width="189" valign="top">3400 kg or 136 bags of cement</td><td width="189" valign="top">3100 kg or 162 water bottles</td></tr><tr><td width="189" valign="top">Canter 7.5t</td><td width="189" valign="top">4400 kg or 176 bags of cement</td><td width="189" valign="top">4100 kg or 215 water bottles</td></tr></tbody></table><p>You may also be thinking about towing, for example a compressor, so this is something to discuss with your dealer. The Canter 3.5t, for example, has a 3,500 kg towing capacity - one of the best in its segment.</p>
