unladen
Without any cargo
Unladen means not carrying a load or cargo.
An unladen truck weighs less than a loaded one; an unladen ship sits higher in the water.
The term appears in technical and regulatory contexts: unladen weight, unladen vehicle.
Outside such contexts, empty or unloaded are more common choices.
