What Size Flatbed Trailer Should I Rent

Start with the longest piece of material you need to haul. If your longest piece is 12 feet, a 14-foot flatbed gives you a comfortable fit. If you are hauling 16-foot lumber or long pipe runs, you will want the 16-foot deck. The 20-foot flatbed is there for the longest loads, though it does make the trailer harder to maneuver in tight spaces.

Beyond length, think about weight. Heavier loads need a trailer rated to carry them safely. Just let Big Rentals know what you are hauling in Laredo, including the material type and approximate weight, and we will confirm the right size before you come in to pick up the trailer.
