It depends on the commercial vehicle, how it's licensed, the state it's running in, and a lot of other things, but a tractor-trailer combination with tandem axles on the tractor and the trailer can generally carry 80,000 pounds--12,000 on the front axle and 34,000 on the tractor and trailer tandems.

Deduct the actual weight of the vehicle (E-350 Van) from 10,500 lbs. The remainder is the weight capacity of the cargo (including Passenger weight) that the manufacturer specifies for the vehicle. If vehicle weight is unknown buy a weight ticket at a commercial scale and drive it unloaded onto the scale with the normal driver on board. Subtract this weight from 10,500 lbs. The remainder would be the maximum legal cargo weight which may be loaded.
