All this and I forgot edge guards.

good to go!!

 

Did the shipper require that nonsense?

I almost booked a load like that but backed away..Was required to have 15 straps.

 

Agreed, that's bigtime overkill. 1/3 of the straps would do the same job.

 

OMG if I was the shipper, I would be upset with you OP, the straps are not color coordinated with the earth tone of the crates.

 

Not really enough down angle on the straps to prevent side shifting. Why not stagger left right or better yet just nail some 2x4’s to the floor next to each crate?

what’s the weight?

 

I get loads like that all the time. I just strap the rear and that’s it. Never had them move. However I do drive gentle and never far. I don’t believe they would slide on me sideways. If they do it’s light enough where my whole trailer wouldn’t lean and it’s not liquid so don’t worry about a spill.

 

When ur a van driver but wanna be a flatbedder

 

Yeah, not laughing at the OP for sure but you could grow wings and do a back flip and that freight not move. Better safe then sorry but I agree throw a couple straps around the end skid and drive sensible.
