We are renting a 48’ flatbed with wood floor for the next few months & We will just tarp as needed for now. Our new Dorsey 53’ wood floor, combination, split axel, rear slide axel will hopefully arrive in June.
we will be adding the Quick Draw tarp system when it arrives

You're going to haul explosives with a Conestoga? Or a flat and just tarp it?
-
A lot of DOD teams haul 1.1, 1.2 & 1.3 with conestoga tarp system on flat beds and step decks.
We couldn’t find a 53’ we wanted used (with a wood floor) so we ordered a new one. Until it arrives we will rent a 48’ and tarp loads as needed. -
Class 1 explosives?
Sure hope you guys don't have a "Wile E Coyote" moment....

I truly appreciate the help that Everyone on here is willing to give.
Booth trailers currently only has 48 foot step decks with wood floors. I need a 53 foot flatbed.
The Good news is the route I took gets me my 53’ flatbed for about $25,000 cheaper than their 48 foot with a conestoga on it.
The bad news is I need to rent one for probably three months. (790 per month)Ruthless Thanks this. -
Conestoga kit is about that installed when i was buying them in 2019/
Glad you found a good solution -
$52k trailer (12% tax included)
$22.5k quick draw tarp system installed
