Heavy Duty Machine Tarps

Most every large town has a tarp store in it, If you tell us where need to buy tarps might be able to help dolthan tarp in AL. can sell them

 

Big Phil, I personally quit tarping loads, HD Machine Tarps are quite expensive and the shippers and brokers do not want to pay for the tarping. They want everything to be all inclusive. By the time you spend $ 1,500 bucks on tarps and you use them for free , its just not worth it. I tell them to shrink wrap the load if wanted tarped..

 

Big Phil, I buy my tarps @ Mytee products in ohio..

a 30 x 30 will cost you round $200 plus shipping..Very reasonable AND durable..I still have lumber tarps I bought from them back in 2008..my steel tarps are used every week and are 3 years old..(of course you must protect them correctly and tie then done right)

 

There's a tarp place in Burns Harbor...in the FlyingJ complex.

 

I think that is the TarpStop in Gary?

Ive bought alot from their Perrysburg OH store, a 30x30 would probably be a custom tarp, I do know they will sew you up any tarp configuration you want.

OP- have you looked back thru the classifieds on here?

 

Machinery has a lot of sharp points, no matter what tarps you use you need to pad the sharp points,, Majority of tarps use 18oz/yard material , I used 9oz tarps for years with no problems , I always padded with furniture pads or used carpet , Best place to buy tarps is a tarp company Tri City Canvas in Granite City , Il

Granite City Canvas,3240 W Chain Of Rocks Rd, #A, Granite City, IL 62040

I suggest you get a few smaller tarps,,many loads you will not need large tarps and when you do you can use 3-4 tarps,,smaller tarps are much easier to handle and easier to tie them down so you do not get a lot if flapping,, I would get 2 20x30, 2 20x20 and a couple of 20x16 all made with 9oz material. also get padding, I used to carry 30 furniture pads, and 6 4x4 pices of used carpet. Again you will need padding no matter what kind of tarps you use,

 

Yes a lot of padding and a lot of bungees . But beware that some 30' X 30 ' can weight up to 140 lb ! a couple of 24 ' X 30 ' might be a better deal unless you always tarp the same thing and 1 big one does it.
