Flatbed Trailer Rental in Detroit, MI

Removable Goosenecks (RGN)

‍

These are called removable because they can be detached from the cabin. The gooseneck is the part where the trailer is attached to the cabin. RGNs are very convenient because you can detach them to form a ramp that is used to load freight onto the deck. These flatbed trailers are configured with multiple axles which increase their hauling capacity and support. As such, the more axles on the trailers, the heavier the loads they can carry. On average, RGNs can have a length of approximately 29 ft.

Lowboys

‍
