Flatbed & utility trailers
A compact, durable hauling platform built around the equipment, material and loading method.
Simple on the surface. Specific underneath.
Flatbed and utility trailers are useful when the load does not need an enclosure and straightforward access matters. Universal configures the platform around equipment dimensions, load distribution, securement points, towing limits and the conditions the trailer will work in.
Built to move more than one kind of load.
Existing Universal materials show flatbeds used for construction equipment, landscaping tools, heavy scrap metal, tire bales, building materials, machinery, recycling materials and aircraft parts.
- Plan deck dimensions around the largest regular load
- Locate securement where it can actually be reached
- Balance payload and axle placement
- Confirm tow-vehicle capacity before build decisions
The payload drives the configuration.
Weight is only one part of a useful hauling setup. Loading direction, equipment footprint, center of gravity, ramps, tie-down access and clearance determine whether the trailer works smoothly in the field.
