      WHAT IS FLATBED TRANSPORTATION AND SHIPPING?

      Flatbed shipping is ideal for transporting cargo that may not need the enclosure of a dry van, can't be loaded or unloaded from a dock, or exceeds standard truck trailer dimensions. Flatbeds are designed to accommodate loading from all angles, utilizing cranes and forklifts for versatile cargo handling.

      FLATBED TRUCKING SERVICES WE OFFER

      Flatbed FTL

      If your shipment is big enough to take a full trailer, we can help you with the right equipment to make this happen. Whether one truck is enough or you need multiple vehicles, we can arrange it.

      Oversize Shipments

      Legal requirements for oversize shipments vary across U.S. states, emphasizing the importance of understanding and complying with the specific regulations in each state. Let LAX Freight make sure your shipment is delivered safely and on time.

      Consolidated

      Your load might not often require an entire deck space and have enough extra time to deliver. To reduce the cost, while also limiting carbon emissions, we can consolidate your shipment with others ensuring the most cost-efficient way to ship.

      There are different modifications of each of the open-platform trailer type, but most common ones are the following:

      Flatbed

      A regular, the most standard open-platform trailer with the legal gross commodity dimensions and weight:

      • 48’x8’6”x8’6”
      • ±45,000 lbs

      Step deck (drop deck)

      Consists of a lower deck and an upper deck allowing for the more taller commodities than a flatbed:

      • 37’-41’ lower deck x 10’ height
      • 11’ upper deck x 8’6” height
      • 8’6” wide
      • ±45,000 lbs

      Double drop (lowboy)

      Also known as a lowboy, has 2 upper sections (in the front and rear) and 1 lower section called a “well”.

      • 29’x8’6”x11’6”

      RGN

      A trailer type which looks pretty much just like a double drop but has a detachable front upper deck that allows to drop the well and drive heavy equipment onto the trailer.

      Hotshot

      Small RGN trailer pulled by a pickup truck.
