    flatbed is alot more work with chance of alot more violations. read up on regulations in fmcsr about load securement. i been runnin flatbed for e.w. wylie now for a cpl years. i really do enjoy the physical work of it. but, load securment regulations can be confusing to a new flatbedder. congrats and good luck

    Thanks and yes it is. I get lost in how to tie down different stuff but its getting easier now. I think I came in at a good time cause everything is slow, so I take my time and try to Do it right. But now its tome to bring on the freight. Need so miles. Be safe out there.
