Best Answer

There really isn't a set capacity, as the sizes and configuration of these trucks may vary. You could be talking about a single axle straight truck, or a tractor-trailer, whether a regular five axle unit or a Michigan 'sled'. Heating oil weighs ~8.2 lbs. per gallon, and a single axle truck with a 33,000 GVW would probably be able to carry 7 - 8 tons of payload, while a five axle semi truck and tanker trailer grossing at 80,000 lbs. would have between a 20 - 24 ton payload.
