Flatbed Trailer FAQ

What endorsements are needed to haul flatbed loads?

A Class A CDL is required for tractor-trailer flatbed combinations. Oversize loads (exceeding standard width, length, or weight limits) require a special permit from each state the load passes through. Loads over certain widths require pilot cars. Securement training (strapping, chaining, and tarping) is critical — improper securement is a leading flatbed violation.

Steel deck vs. aluminum deck flatbed — which should I buy?

Steel decks are heavier but more durable and cheaper to repair in the field. Aluminum decks are 1,500–2,500 lbs lighter, which translates directly to more legal payload on weight-sensitive loads. Aluminum is the preferred choice for most OTR flatbed operations. Steel decks are common in vocational applications where deck damage from machinery is more frequent.

What is the legal weight limit for a flatbed tractor-trailer?

The Federal Bridge Formula limits most combinations to 80,000 lbs GVW on Interstate highways. A standard 5-axle tractor-flatbed combo can carry approximately 47,000–48,000 lbs of payload. Overweight permits are available on state highways for heavier loads, with fees and routing restrictions varying by state.
