Flatbed trailers are simply platforms with no roof or side walls making them perfect for hauling oversized cargo. They come in many varieties and sizes that make it easy to perform different hauling tasks. Flatbed trailers are also heavy-duty and are perfect for heavy freight management such as in construction, warehousing, and shipping containers from ship harbors. They can be up to 53 feet long making them perfect for transporting extremely long loads such as windmill turbines and logs. Generally, flatbed trailers are perfect for hauling abnormally large loads that could prove difficult to carry or load in enclosed trailers. COOP has a wide variety of flatbed trailers that you can easily rent for your business hauling needs.
Lowboys
Lowboys are a type of flatbed also known as double drops due to the well-like shape formed between the two axles. One drop is located after the gooseneck and the other in front of the rear axle(s). With an increased number of axles, lowboys have more capacity and strength for heavy hauls. The drop formed by lowboys gives it the ability to carry tall loads up to 14 feet high and also gives the load stability. Heavy machinery such as excavators, bulldozers, and other types of freight that exceed standard legal weight and height are easily loaded and transported on double drops.
Removable Goosenecks(RGN)
These types of flatbed trailers are called removable because they can be detached from the cabin. RGNs enable you to conveniently drive the load onto the trailer since they can also be detached and lowered to the ground to create a ramp. The trailers can also be configured with multiple axles which increases their capacity and support system making it possible to haul severely heavy loads. RGNs can have a length of up to 29 feet making them suitable for hauling cars and other automobiles.
Extendable Stretch Trailer
Just as in the name, extendable trailers can be stretched out and shrunk back to suit different lengths. They can be stretched up to 80 feet and are used for extra-long cargo such as windmill turbines to ensure that the load doesn’t overhang. Also, these flatbed trailers are made flexible for the purpose of driveability despite their sizes. One way to use your extendable trailer rental is to haul multiple stable loads.
