    Boss told me to cover the ends and get away with using two 20 foot tarps on the 40 foot load. Plus dunnage sticking out the sides. It is what it is.

    It matches the truck though (Cascadia).

    It is, however, tight going down the road.

    I guess it's OK as long as your shorts aren't painted to match.

    I used to have a trailer that looked like that. The cross members were more rust that steel. Was only useful for hauling palletized stuff or I had to use 4x4s to span frame rails to keep it from punching through the wood deck.

    Was a good City trailer. It wasn't allowed to leave the state though.

    Hopefully yours is a bit more solid though.

    Call me lazy. It was a load of shingles... Just think about it... They are stored at the shipper outside... They get shipped all the time without a tarp, they get stored at the receiver outside.

    I found out after the fact that the load planner that booked this load was new and was marking all his builds as Tarped. Even when he built a load of Holland trailer sliders. That #### ain't getting tarped,I don't give a ####

    Is that first lift axle self steer or do you have to dump it when turning?
