Flatbed & Step Deck dispatch services

Open-deck freight for flatbed and step deck carriers who know how to secure a load.

Flatbed and step deck work rewards experience. Rates are usually stronger than van freight, but every load needs the right deck, the right securement and clear expectations about tarping and site access.

We match loads to your trailer, gear and comfort level, confirm tarp requirements and tarp pay before booking, and negotiate for the extra work open-deck freight demands.

Flatbed & Step Deck loads we book

  • Steel, coils and metal products
  • Lumber and building materials
  • Machinery and equipment
  • Pipe, rebar and construction materials
  • Taller freight that fits a step deck

How we dispatch Flatbed & Step Deck trucks

  • Match loads to your deck length, securement gear and tarps
  • Confirm tarp requirements and tarp pay before you commit
  • Check site access and call-ahead requirements for job-site deliveries
  • Negotiate fairly for the extra time open-deck loads take
