Today, a growing number of industries utilize flatbed trailers to move goods. Of all the different types of trucks used to haul freight, flatbed trailers are in high demand. After all, this is the ideal solution for transporting odd-shaped, long, and heavy cargo. The goal is to work with a respected source that provides flatbed trucking services.
Below are some of the things that flatbed transportation carriers transport, making this a valuable service.
For many residential/commercial builds and renovation projects, construction companies use heavy materials, equipment, and tools. Due to their large sizes, standard transport trucks often won’t suffice. However, since flatbeds don’t have a roof, sides, or back, they can accommodate most everything the job requires.
Thanks to flatbed transportation companies construction firms can get just about everything they need delivered safely to the job site. That includes lumber, concrete, brick, siding, and even equipment like backhoes and trench diggers.
Similar to construction jobs, those who work on roadways, highways, and bridges use specialized equipment. Often, this equipment is extremely large, heavy, and expensive so they often rely on top-rated flatbed transportation companies to get the equipment to the site safely and quickly.
Flatbed transportation carriers play a vital role in preparing construction sites. Just as important is the removal of scrap material at a project’s end. This is especially true for renovation and remodeling jobs.
To prevent a fire hazard, millions of stockpiled tires get hauled away every year in the U.S. That requires the tires to be compressed into bales. As with the other items mentioned, there’s no way any other type of shipping vehicle would be able to accommodate this type of job. This is where flatbed transportation companies can become a part of the solution.
