Standard Flatbed

A standard flatbed is the most common, most basic and least expensive type of flatbed trailer. They’re generally 48’- 53’ long with a bed that sits at 42’’- 60’’ high. Since trailer and loading dock dimensions can both vary, a standard flatbed can often be adjusted to match dock height. They may also be equipped with a ramp to aid in loading from the ground and can typically haul freight that fits the following dimensions:

• Max weight: 48,000 pounds
• Max length: 48’ or 53’ (depending on trailer length)
• Max width: 8.5’
• Max height: 8.5’
