Flat Top Trailers in Perth

A common sight on Australia’s roads, especially in the outback, is a road train, a transport method that is unique to the country. This highly efficient method of transporting large cargo over long distances often consists of multiple flat top trailers.

This type of trailer is most commonly used because flat top trailers in Perth are extremely versatile and have large carrying capacities. This makes them ideal for many transport needs and we can have flat top trailers delivered to Perth to meet those needs.

Choosing the Ideal Flat-Top Trailer

The growth of containerised freight has partly led to the increased use of flat top trailers because they are ideally suited to this type of cargo. So, if you are in the market for a new trailer, you need to consider various factors to decide if a flat top trailer is best for you and the features you need it to have.

The main consideration when choosing a trailer is what you will use it for. If you are carrying cargo that needs to be protected against the weather, then a trailer that is covered in, such as a box trailer, is what you need. For large, heavy and irregularly shaped loads, however, a flat top trailer is by far the best option.

When choosing a flat top trailer, consider the type of loads you need to carry. Lengthy items may need an extended trailer while wide loads will need a trailer that can accommodate them. You will, however, need to conform to restrictions set by regulations and we can advise you on this.

The weight of the load is also an important consideration, and flat tops are ideal for moving heavy loads. Those manufactured from galvanised steel beams are the most solid and long-lasting while aluminium is suitable for compact trailers that have a low weight.

Loading and unloading of cargoes are important so consider how you will get items on and off. Flat top trailers simplify the process because they are open on all sides, are relatively low and the lack of obstructions makes packing easier and more efficient.

Choose a trailer that has adequate means of securing your cargo, so it is transported safely. Twist locks can secure loads, as can hooks to which chains and straps can be attached.
