Flatbed truck transportation

Cargo transportation with flatbed trucks in Poland

Flatbed truck transport is widely used for the efficient transportation of various types of cargo. These vehicles are equipped with reinforced sides on three sides and have an open platform. This allows for the transport of substantial volumes of goods that do not require specific storage conditions.

How cargo transportation with flatbed trucks is carried out

Our transport company carries out flatbed truck freight transport according to the following process:

1. assessing the weight, volume, and characteristics of the cargo to select the optimal platform;
2. careful loading, which can be done through one of the open sides or from above;
3. preparing the necessary documentation for legal transport and customs clearance;
4. planning a route that ensures timely arrival at the destination without delays.

Flatbed trucks significantly reduce transportation costs. Depending on the cargo, you can choose a body with top, rear, or side loading to ensure the safe movement of goods without damage.

Advantages of cargo transportation with flatbed trucks

Flatbed trucks are an excellent alternative to curtain-sided vehicles, when transporting industrial equipment, special machinery, construction materials, and other large structures. They are used for both domestic and international freight and offer the following advantages:

• the open platform simplifies the loading and unloading of large items;
• opening side and rear sides allow the vehicle to get close to the unloading area;
• cargo can be securely fastened to prevent shifting, falling, or damage during transport.

Of course, cargo transported on an open flatbed platform is not protected from rain, snow, intense sun, or other adverse weather conditions. Therefore, for perishable goods, it's better to use a truck with a tarpaulin cover. In other cases, flatbed truck freight transport provides the required reliability, efficiency, and safety.

You can choose a flatbed truck that matches the volume of goods being transported. If necessary, one vehicle can be used to carry cargo from multiple customers (consolidated shipments), significantly reducing transportation costs by avoiding the expense of sending a half-empty truck.
