Supposed to load some of those little cargo tongue trailers but dont have chains only straps. Any tips or pics on how to properly secure them to a flatbed with straps?
Multiple stops, big stacks of them with styrofoam blocks between them? The load is going to sway. If you have straps with J hooks, strap the hook to the top trailer of each stack and cinch it down evenly 4 points securement on each top trailer of each stack. Be sure to check it periodically.
Its supposedly the cargo style covered units. I'm assuming I'll have to strap the axles and tongue's down
I would throw one over the top to keep it from going side to side, and criss-cross over axles and springs.
That would be my go to. Nail some 2x4's down to block the tires, run a chain over the axle and bind it down, then a rubber pad under the dolly leg and strap the tongue down.
Most places I have trailers loaded. They won't allow chains. But they have secured with 2x4's, wood blocks and styrofoam blocks as needed. I have chained thru the stake pockets to secure after leaving loading site.
