No matter the job, enjoy the freedom of flexibility at competitive rates.
Double Drops
Double drop flatbeds have a high deck at the front and rear of these trailers, which create a lower well in the middle to carry especially tall cargo. These specialty trailers are often required to transport especially tall machinery or equipment, as the transportation industry has regulations for maximum height because of the clearances for bridges and tunnels around the country. Usually available in lengths from 24 ft to 29.6 ft, a standard double drop trailer can carry up to 40,000 lbs.
Extendable Double Drop
When your cargo load is taller than a standard flatbed can carry but longer than a double drop can haul, the extendable double drop flatbeds may be just what you need. Extendable double drops can be extended to lengths of 29 ft to 50 ft, and have a greater maximum load than the standard versions. This makes extendable double drops able to carry especially tall and heavy equipment, machinery or industrial goods.
Great Dane
As one of the world’s largest manufacturers of dry, refrigerated, and flatbed trailers, Great Dane provides customers with the experience and reputation that their products are engineered with the quality to handle any load. Founded in Savannah, Georgia in 1900, the long history of Great Dane gives you the trust that their equipment can handle any cargo you need to haul.
Hyundai
Hyundai Translead has spent its long history putting an intense emphasis on R&D and engineering, leading them to create exceptional products that outlast and outperform others. With the strength of structural steel and protection of galvanized components incorporated into Hyundai flatbed trailers, this company that has been in the manufacturing and engineering business since 1947 builds flatbed trailers that can withstand nearly any test or cargo that you throw at them.
Utility
Utility Trailer Manufacturing Company has acquired the wisdom over their long history to manufacture trailers that stand the test of time. The quality and durability that the Utility brand has become known for, has caused this company to become the third-largest manufacturer of flatbed trailers in the US. With the strength of steel but with the lightweight benefit of an all-aluminum body, their 4000 AE model trailer has found a way to outperform the normal weight and strength requirements that brings cost savings to their customers. Utility flatbed trailers are a great choice for your company if fuel and maintenance costs are something that you want to keep as low as possible.
Vanguard
Vanguard National Trailer Corporation has long lived up to its company name by always remaining at the front of the industry for its quality and the resilience of its products. Producing their flatbed trucks being in both lightweight steel VSF and fully aluminum models, Vanguard flatbed trailers offer 80,000 lbs distributed frame rating. With the same strength as the lightweight steel, the fully aluminum Vanguard flatbed trailer weighs in at 2,000 lbs less, which comes from a feat of engineering. Their models both come in 48ft length and are known for their years of trouble-free performance and financial savings for their customers' operations.
Stoughton
Stoughton has grown from small beginnings to become one of the largest manufacturers of dry van, grain, and refrigerated trailers in North America. Known for attention to the small details that other companies may not pay attention to, Stoughton builds its trailers with the care of small family-owned companies but with the manufacturing excellence of the biggest brands. One of the few remaining family-owned brands in the US, Stoughton trailers brings you American-made ingenuity and a small-business appreciation for customer service.
Don't just take our word, hear what COOP customers have to say about our platform.
“The supply of short-term rental trucks was almost impossible. COOP was able to help by connecting us to equipment Owners that weren’t utilizing their fleets.”
“I like the convenience of being able to pick up the vehicles when I need them, check them out on the app, take pictures, and get on the road.”
Heavy Hauling
Flatbed trailers are the right solution for heavy machinery and equipment that doesn’t need to be protected from the sun or rain. If your Columbia business needs to haul vehicles, heavy equipment, large piping, or industrial machinery, COOP has flatbed trailers with different options that can carry any load. If your business in Columbia needs a flatbed trailer for your heavy hauling needs, download the COOP app to find one today!
Construction
Construction companies often have a need for heavy equipment that cannot be driven to the job site, especially for large or commercial projects. It may be more efficient for your construction company in Columbia to rent a flatbed trailer from the COOP app for a new project than it would be to purchase a flatbed trailer that sits unused. The COOP app is an easy and affordable option to find a flatbed trailer rental when you need it. Download the app and join the platform to find your next flatbed trailer rental in Columbia today!
Can a flatbed trailer be used to move large construction machinery?
Flatbed trailers can be used to move exceptionally tall and heavy construction machinery. The type and size that you need will all depend on the dimensions and weight of that machinery. Most construction machinery and equipment is large and tall, so for example you could rent a 53 ft flatbed trailer with COOP. If your machinery is taller than regulations allow it to be carried on a standard flatbed trailer, you may need to find a lowboy trailer rental on the COOP app.
Do I need to use my own insurance for rentals on the COOP app?
You may bring your own coverage, but COOP also offers physical damage and a $1M liability policy to qualified renters.
Does the COOP app offer flatbed trailers to rent for a month?
Absolutely! With many different sizes and models of flatbed trailers available depending on seasonal availability, there are typically plenty of options to choose from. Use the COOP app to rent a small or large flatbed trailer starting from $21 per day, and COOP offers discounts for rentals that are longer than a week.
