Available Flatbed Trailer Types

Here are some possible variations of Flatbed Trailer rentals in Bridgeport

Double Drops

Also known as lowboy trailers, a double drop trailer usually ranges between 24 ft to 29.6 ft in length. These trailers are used to haul cargo that is taller than a standard flatbed can legally carry. Built with a high deck at the front and another at the rear of the trailer, these decks create a well where tall cargo such as a bulldozer can be placed for hauling. A standard double drop can haul up to 40,000 lbs, making it a great choice for hauling large and heavy equipment.

Extendable Double Drop

Similar to double drops, extendable double drop trailers are extendable to accommodate more freight than the standard double drop. Like the name suggests, the deck can be extended and has more load capacity when compared to standard double drops. With lengths of 29 ft to 50 ft, the extendable double drop trailer can be used to haul large and heavy equipment.

Step Decks

Similar to a lowboy trailer, a step-deck (also called a single drop) is a flatbed truck made up of two decks, a lower and an upper. These trailers are also used to carry tall cargo that cannot be carried on a standard flatbed due to height requirements. Used to carry up to 48,000 lbs, step decks usually range in length from 48 ft to 53 ft.

What size flatbed trailer do I need to move large construction machinery?
