Passenger-Side and Driver-Side Windshields
Some delivery trucks will have two windshields: one on the driver’s side and one on the passenger side (even though you don’t have a passenger seat). We are able to service either side. Avoid calling them “left” or “right” because that can cause confusion during the part procurement process.

We can replace the windshield on the USPS Mailcat LLV vehicles. Again, we only service Southern California.
What Are Some Common Reasons Why Delivery Windshields Break?
The most common reason is simply road debris. Specifically, rocks and pebbles that hit delivery truck windshields when they are driving down a highway or freeways. In this scenario, the relatively high speed combined with the rock impact causes windshield breakage.
Delivery trucks have an unfortunate design issue: poor aerodynamics. Because of the boxy profile, road debris tends to hit the delivery truck windshield dead-on instead of flowing up or around the vehicle. This increases the chances of direct rock and pebble smacks and thus broken windshields.
Delivery trucks suffer from poor aerodynamic styling which can increase windshield breakage.
Another reason why delivery truck windshields break is because of road accidents. It’s really important to train your delivery drivers to drive slowly even though the entire business stresses urgency. Driving slowly will save lives, reduce vehicle damage from accidents and lower insurance costs. It actually pays to be extra careful in this business!
Finally, the end-of-the-day parking lot or area for delivery trucks can be a place where windshields can get damaged. Some businesses have busy lots and warehouses where objects can smash into a windshield and break it. Any warehouse or industrial setting where beams, bars, and forklifts exist can be a cause for windshield breakage. Just the nature of such busy spaces can be the issue.
