ABSTRACT:
A modular truck body includes a plurality of separate and independent modular compartments or modules. Each module is attached to vertical members of a corresponding subframe in order to efficiently attach the modules to the truck. In certain embodiments, immediately adjacent modules are not directly affixed to one another, so that one can easily be removed from the truck without affecting other modules thereon.
