Why ship with a Conestoga Flatbed Trailer?

When you hear the word Conestoga, where does your mind wander? Are you taken back to the 1600’s, to a time where the dirt roads are lined with horses, and covered wagons? That’s exactly where the word Conestoga comes from, but the innovative Conestoga Flatbed Trailer of today has really evolved over the years. The Conestoga flatbed trailer has improved shipping for both the shipper and the receiver.

You will find your shipment protected from the elements and weather, all the while, giving the driver, and you, peace of mind knowing your cargo is protected. When combined with the versatility of a flatbed during loading and unloading, the Conestoga flatbed trailer is highly sought after.

Conestoga Flatbed Trailer, Not Your Specialized Trailer

Though you will reap all the benefits of a flatbed trailer, you will find all the modern conveniences with a Conestoga flatbed. When you compare to a dry van trailer, it's exciting to think you will have all the protection of a closed trailer, but none of the limitations when loading or unloading. You will no longer be confined by three walls and a roof.

Open sides allow complete access to the cargo, making odd-sized shipments more accessible. This amazing combo makes for one of the most sought after trailers on the road. The versatility of the Conestoga flatbed is undeniable when compared to the traditional flatbed, or even the dry van trailer.

The move-able tarp system makes the Conestoga a dream, giving you the diversity needed for just about any load.

Traditionally, an occupied loading doc would be a problem, but the open sides allow for unloading anywhere, really. Drivers are no longer bound by heavy tarps that need to be strapped and unstrapped again. This is particularly helpful when it comes to parcel shipments or backhauls. The tarp system allows the driver access to all areas of the shipment, at all times. This is a fantastic advantage during parcel shipments, permitting more flexibility in a drivers route.
