Portuguese term

baú do caminhão

Portuguese to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks trucks
Hi, guys,
It looks simple but after some research I can´t be so sure trunk applies to this case.
Other possibilities are container or trailer, but in this case I´m dealing with small trucks.

Any help?

Thanks!

box truck / box van / cube van, bob truck or cube truck

A box truck—also known as a box van, cube van, bob truck[1] or cube truck—is a chassis cab truck with an enclosed cuboid-shaped cargo area.[2] On most box trucks, the cabin is separate to the cargo area, however some box trucks have a door between the cabin and the cargo area.[3]

The difference between a box truck and a van is that the cargo van is a one-piece (unibody), while a box truck is created by adding a cargo box to a chassis cab

U-Haul Truck

Se for um caminhão de mudança, há uma empresa nos EUA cujo o nome virou meio que um sinônimo para esse tipo de serviço. UHAUL ou U-HAUL. Não sei se essa dica ajuda.
abraços.
