Flatbed Trucking Service
Most flatbeds have a flat deck or the step deck (also known as a drop deck). Some flatbed trucks have double step decks, perfect for oversized cargo. A step deck can accommodate much taller loads than a box, van, or normal flatbed truck. Our flatbed trucking service ensures safe transport because cargo is secured on the flatbed truck using ropes, chains, and straps. Side rack kits or walls with fixed canvas tarps can be added to flatbed trucks. Curtain side trailer covers and curtain side tarp systems roll forward and backward on the trailer to cover up freight and protect it during poor weather conditions. Due to the design of flatbed trucks, cranes and forklifts are able to quickly load and unload goods from the rear, top, and both sides. Because flatbed trucks often have ramps, they are ideal for loading and unloading at construction sites and shipping points, which generally do not have docks.
