Frequently Asked Questions
What are flatbeds best for?
Flatbeds are ideal for large items that are not sensitive to the sun. Since they don’t have walls or roofs, you have more space to fit more goods. They usually come in 48 or 53-foot sizes, but you can extend the space up to 100feet and 40 tons by equipping an extendable flatbed. If your cargo is heavy, you can go for perimeter deck trailers that haul up to 150 tons. You can stabilize the trucks by combining removable goosenecks (RGNs) and extendable trailers for maximum security and safety.
