Step Deck Trailer FAQ
What is the maximum freight height on a step deck trailer?
A standard step deck's lower deck sits at 40–42 inches, allowing freight up to approximately 10 ft tall (vs. 8 ft 6 in on a standard flatbed) to clear most legal height limits of 13 ft 6 in. For loads taller than that, a lowboy or double-drop trailer is needed.
Do I need a permit to haul on a step deck trailer?
Most step deck loads fall within legal dimensions and don't require a permit. If cargo exceeds 8 ft 6 in width, 13 ft 6 in height, 53 ft length, or 80,000 lbs GVW, an oversize/overweight permit is required. Step decks are specifically designed to haul tall equipment without height permits in most cases.
