Available Flatbed Truck Types

Here are some possible variations of Flatbed Truck rentals in Pittsburgh

Stake Bed Body

The stake bed body flatbed design is named after the stakes or temporary barriers used at the sides of the trucks for cargo support. These barriers are usually fastened into sockets at the edges of the deck to keep them in place when needed. When handling extremely large freight the temporary stakes are removed to create space.

Logging Body

Loggers handle a lot of heavy freight which requires a heavy-duty commercial truck for transportation. The logging body design is equipped with side posts that help to secure the cargo being transported. Also, by the use of tie-downs, straps, and nets extra support is provided for the cargo. They are also easy to use thanks to the power hoists that help with loading and unloading freight.

Flatbed Body

The size allows you to transport as much cargo as possible, reducing the back and forth to get everything. With the flat deck, you are able to stack loads both on the sides and upwards, fully utilizing the payload capacity. While the decks are mostly made of high-quality metallic planks, the trucks might also have additional reinforcement to secure the cargo. Loading and unloading are also made easy since there are no sidewalls.

Lowboys

Lowboys are very common, especially for tall freight hauling. The cargo deck is lower when compared to other types of flatbed trucks. They have a maximum payload capacity of 40,000 pounds with the main well having a maximum length of 29.9ft. The main deck, which is also known as the ‘well’ drops immediately after the gooseneck and usually has multiple axles to support heavy loads.
