Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Most 3” straps have the same WWL as 4”. I carry several 3”, I do notice that they are a tad bit thicker than the 4” ones. Both from the same manufacturer.

 

At least the ones in the link I showed, the difference between the 3" and the 4", although both have a WLL of 5400 lbs, the breaking strength is different, with the 4" having a breaking strength of 20,000 lbs and the 3" having a breaking strength of 16,200 lbs. The purchase price of one or the other, however, seems to be roughly the same price with the 3" actually being 30 cents higher when I looked.

 

2 stops today. Done by 1 pm, hiding from the heat now.

 

Kyle,

Compared to a traditional flatbed, what’s it like having one with a forklift on it?

 

This ole dozer blade looks awkward now way back here all alone. Unload it in the morning and throw some Oregon lumber on

 

It’s the greatest thing that ever happened to me.

 

is it better because it makes loading easier?

 

Yup. The years I spent bumping docks caused me to have a deep hatred for slow lazy forklift operators.

This job I do now, I do it all myself. Never have to wait on anyone and everything gets loaded the way I want it!

Unloading is also a breeze because I usually deliver to jobsites weeks before the crew shows up, so I have the site to myself. Just show up, fork everything off, and GTFO. 20-30 minutes tops. No nonsense!
