Vans and flatbeds Click Here for Freight Quote or call 800-282-4990 At 4 Way Logistics, we have a team of world class logisticians who will advise and recommend precisely which type of truck trailer equipment is best for each particular shipment. The use of van or flatbed is fundamental to proper cost avoidance and efficient operation in the trucking industry. VANS: Our services offer a wide array of trucking options, including precisely which type of Van trailer your shipment may require. We service most of these shipments, especially those comprising loose cartons or unitized or palletized freight, in a van trailer. Truckload service usually requires 48 or 53 foot trailers, although there are a wide variety of styles of trailer. We will frequently ask you if your palletized shipment, for example, can be stacked or not in the van trailer. 4 Way Logistics can reduce your costs with this type of informational request. FLATBEDS: Some shipments require that the main deck be free of walls or ceiling constraints and require a flatbed trailer for loading or unloading ease and speed. Again, there is a wide variety in flatbed trailers which accommodate the trucking of almost any type shipment. Flatbeds also serve the needs of customers trucking special equipment, the wide load, the long load, the oversized load, the heavy haul load, or any other type of trucking which can legally move by highway in North America, and cannot move in a van.
