Frequently Asked Questions
Flatbeds are ideal for oversized loads that won't fit in enclosed trailers, loads that need crane or forklift access from the side or top, construction materials like lumber and steel, and heavy equipment transport.
Step-deck (or drop-deck) trailers have a lower deck height, allowing for taller loads while staying within height restrictions. Standard flatbeds have a uniform deck height.
Many loads require tarping for weather protection and to prevent debris from falling. Some rental agreements include tarps; others require you to provide your own. Always confirm tarping requirements and availability.
Federal and provincial regulations require specific tie-down strength and placement based on cargo weight and type. Ensure you understand securement requirements before loading. Ontario has specific commercial vehicle safety requirements.
