So I’ve been thinking about new tarps for a year now. I’ve never had new tarps. I got a used up set with the trailer I bought 5 years ago. I rounded up 2 more used short ones along the way. I’ve used all 4 a few times on 8’ tall stuff. I’m headed to tri city canvas in the morning to order some.
Thinking:
2x 8’ lumber tarps 18’ long
2x 4’ lumber tarps 16’ long
1 machinery tarp 24’ x 20’ d rings on all sides
stainless D rings every 2’ with the little flap under them.
Thinking red or black n orange?
I’d like a little colored tag on each to identify them when rolled up.
The idea is that the 2x 4’ do %90 of the work and the machine tarp can lengthen the 4’ OR the 8’ out to 53’.
Am I missing anything. I’m open to all ideas or thoughts?

I'd like to offer advice, but I'm one of them imitation flatbedders with a hidekit. Best I can tell you is don't order light colored tarps. I had a beautiful purple tarp that matched the fenders on my truck... it had big black soot streaks and marks on it in no time.
