How much weight can a 24 foot straight truck haul?
The only information provided is that it's a 24' straight truck - that really tells us nothing in relation to the question you're asking. The payload it can haul is the tare weight (empty weight of the vehicle) subtracted from the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. So, if it's a non-CDL Class 6 vehicle with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of 26,000 lbs. and a tare weight of 15,000 lbs., then it can haul 11,000 lbs. of payload. If it's a Class 7 truck (which does require a CDL) with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of 33,000 lbs., and a tare weight of 17,000 lbs., then it can haul 16,000 lbs. of payload. But without having the tare weight and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of the vehicle you had in mind, it's impossible to tell you what you're looking for. Length doesn't determine how much weight it can haul.
How do you calculatet tare weight?
Take gross weight or loaded weight and subtract the empty weight to get the tare weight.
