    You can load a curtain side wider than a Conestoga.

    Size of the container would be helpful. What does 22.5 lowpros have to do with anything?

    That has nothing to do if the container would fit in the Conestoga.

    Give measurements of the container and measurements of the Conestoga trailer. That would determine if it would fit. Tire size has nothing to do with it.

    If memory serves me, a laminate manufacturer, like wilsonart uses them to transport products. Had something to do with the glues used and keeping the temps stable during transport.
