Flat Bed Trucking
Flatbed trucking is a method of transporting goods using a flatbed trailer that lacks a roof or sides. These trailers are attached to tractor units, and the cargo is secured to the flatbed using tarps, straps, chains, or other devices. Unlike enclosed trailers, flatbeds allow for the transportation of oversized or uniquely shaped items.
Importance
Versatility
Flatbed trucks accommodate large, heavy, or irregularly shaped cargo that wouldn’t fit in standard dry vans.
Industrial Equipment
They handle oversized equipment like industrial machinery, generators, and vehicles.
Efficiency
Loading and unloading are more straightforward due to the open design.
