Logistics terminology:

  • Dry Van - Standard Enclosed diesel trailer (it has no tie downs to secure your pallet or product) YOUR PRODUCT NEEDS TO BE PALLET/CRATE/SKID MOUNTED for this option

  • Open Load - Your product will have No pallet or skid to sit on. The Product will have straps placed on them by the driver. You can get many more products nested on the trailer if you have contracted a designated truck/trailer for your load.

  • Low Boy - These low boy trailer are great for the taller products that require you to ship tall items. (anything above 82")

  • Hot Shot - Pick up truck with a gooseneck trailer 24' - 40' long (Sometimes can deliver on a weekend)

  • Conestoga - A flat bed trailer  with  a sliding cover that covers the entire trailer AND has mounting points inside. (PREFERRED...!!!!!)

  • Tarped - We Never Suggest this option: because it will scuff and damage the powder coat finish. (But it protects oversize items from the weather elements) 

  • Flatbed Trailer Types

  • Flatbed trailers come in all shapes, sizes, and maximum load capacities. Some of the most common types of flatbed trailers and specialized trucking trailers include:

  • Lowboy Trailers for products like platforms

  • Step Deck Trailers

  • Stretch Double Drop Trailers

  • Removable Gooseneck Trailers (RGN)

  • Conestoga Trailers

  • Sidekit Trailers

  • It is essential to note the maximum legal load weight of the cargo as well as the dimensions of a particular type for proper and accurate flatbed & specialized trucking rates.WE HAVE NEVER MAXED out a weight limit trailer... 

  • Each flatbed trailer is different from the other types, and it is essential to note the maximum legal load weight of each. While most of the trailers mentioned in this article are capable of handling loads that exceed the legal dimensions and weights for safety, some states will require a permit and/or have premium charges that will need to be obtained before a shipment can be transported.
