The sliding tarp offers protection from weather elements like rain, snow, and direct sunlight, making it ideal for transporting sensitive materials that need exposure protection but not complete enclosure.
Unlike fully enclosed trailers, the Conestoga allows for side loading and unloading, offering greater flexibility in handling large or awkwardly shaped items.
The retractable system allows for quicker loading and unloading times compared to traditional tarping methods, increasing operational efficiency.
Its open nature allows for the transportation of oversized items or machinery that wouldn’t fit inside enclosed trailers.
With no sides or roof, flatbeds allow for crane and forklift access from all sides, simplifying the processes of loading and unloading.
Often used in construction and agriculture, it's ideal for transporting building materials, large equipment, and heavy machinery.
The floor is made up of slats that can move back and forth, pushing the cargo out of the trailer without the need for manual unloading.
Reduces the need for tipping to unload cargo, which can be safer in areas with height restrictions or unstable ground.
Commonly used for transporting agricultural products, recycling materials, and other bulk goods.
The trailer can be extended to accommodate the length of the cargo, which is crucial for transporting items like wind turbine blades, long steel girders, or pre-fabricated bridge sections.
Typically, hauling such long items requires special road use permits, but the extendable flatbed makes such transport feasible.
Provides stable and secure transportation for items that would be hazardous or impossible to transport on a standard trailer due to their length.
Allows for the transport of tall equipment like forklifts, industrial machinery, and high cube containers without surpassing road height limits.
Like the flatbed, it allows for easy loading and unloading from the sides and rear but offers additional flexibility with height.
Often equipped with ramps for rolling cargo on and off, enhancing its utility for heavy equipment that can be driven onto the trailer.
