Our team customizes lumber transportation plans around the size, weight, and handling needs of each shipment so wood products can move safely and efficiently to their destination. Wood Hauling Options ## Types of Transport We Use for Wood Hauling With years of experience under our belts and the right equipment for timber shipping, our team customizes transportation methods to safely deliver wood shipments of different sizes and profiles. ### Flatbed A flatbed lumber truck is a versatile and commonly used trailer solution. A flatbed truck is an entirely open truck with a flat surface to secure large goods to. This is ideal for cargo that doesn’t need protection from the elements. With its flat, open design, a flatbed truck is built to accommodate a variety of cargo types of all shapes and sizes, making it perfect for large wood transportation endeavors. ### RGN RGN, or Removable Gooseneck trailer, is a trailer with a detachable front end that can be used as a ramp to load heavy or large goods. An RGN trailer is equipped with a double drop formation, which helps carry goods of a taller height. This makes this a wonderful choice to accommodate a large degree of different cargo with ease. ### Double Drop Similar to an RGN, a Double Drop trailer is one of the lowest trailers to the ground. With this feature, this truck type is great for wood hauling as it can handle large, heavy, and oversized goods.
