    Got gloves but I'll buy more I've seen some people advise a 10 pack from harbor frieght. I'll be near one after I go pick up my bike wither tomorrow or Friday so I'll get them then

    You've never done flatbedding before have you?I think it would be wise if you ask if you can go with an exp driver on a few loads.

    I'm pretty sure all you will have to bring with you is a decent pair of work gloves and steel toe boots. They will tell you exactly what to bring in your orientation packet in your email
     
    Boattlebot Thanks this.

    Flatbedding is not easy even the tarp takes a certain art to fold it correctly.
