Flatbed trucking is an incredibly versatile solution for transporting overweight or over-dimensional shipments. When your cargo doesn’t fit in a 53’ van or straight truck, flatbeds become your go-to option. However, choosing the right service provider is crucial to ensure your shipment arrives safely, on time, and without damage. At Headwall, we offer comprehensive open-deck trucking services with a variety of trailer options tailored to meet your shipping needs.

When your cargo doesn’t fit in enclosed trailers, that’s where flatbed trucking shines. Flatbed trucks are designed to securely transport specialized loads that can be difficult to handle otherwise. Open deck trailers offer a level of flexibility that accommodates various sizes, weights, and dimensions.

Flatbed trucking is a great choice for construction materials, machinery, and other bulky items.  We will make sure everything from securement, to permits to escorts (if needed) are taken care of, to ensure your shipment is delivered safe and in a timely manner.  

At Headwall, we provide a range of flatbed and open deck shipping options, including Full Truckload (FTL) and Partial shipping options. Our team’s expertise can help guide you through which equipment and assessorial are needed to haul your cargo safely to its destination. Here are some common types of loads we specialize in:

• Oversized Loads: Cargo that exceeds the dimensions of standard enclosed trucks, such as large machinery or prefabricated structures.
• Heavy Equipment: Items that require special handling due to their weight, including construction and agricultural machinery.
• Construction Materials: Bulk materials like steel, concrete forms, and turbines that need careful transportation to job sites.

Flatbed Trucks are particularly effective for loads that are too tall for standard Dry Vans or Straight Trucks. They also provide the flexibility to load or offload using cranes, making the process efficient and straightforward.

Selecting an over-the-road trucking company involves more than just having flatbed trucks available.
