Conestoga Transportation Company
Transport your freights safely with ultra-secured Conestoga trailers
Exceptional Versatility
Our Conestoga trailers offer added security, versatility, and protection against elements and harsh weather. The best feature of Conestoga is its tarping system that covers the whole deck and also hauls a maximum weight of 44,000 pounds. This is better than traditional flatbeds as they require tarping to protect goods during transportation. Whereas with Conestoga, you get a high-quality tarp readily available.
Conestoga can be fully retracted, making it easier for side-loading and unloading, which helps cut a significant amount of your time. We have a wide range of Conestoga trailers for every purpose, such as double drop Conestoga, step-deck Conestoga, and Conestoga flatbeds. Step decks are best for carrying taller items, while Conestoga flatbeds are great for transporting items that require additional protection from elements.
Impeccable Security
Protection from the elements is the major selling point of Conestoga trailers, which makes them an instant choice for several clients. Regardless of how well prepared you are, you cannot predict harsh weather, which can severely damage your freight. While tarping an open deck freight may help, but it is far from a 100% solution.
Simply load the goods, secure the freight, roll the canvas, and hit the road. Conestoga offers perfect security and a touch-free solution. Hence, they are widely recommended for carrying high-end and expensive goods like sensitive machinery during poor weather. These trailers are available in various lengths, weights, and heights, providing a maximum interior height of 98”. However, drop decks can go up to 120”.
