Flat-Top Truck Services — Open Deck Transport
A flat-top truck is an open deck with no sides or roof, giving you unrestricted access to load from any angle. It's the go-to when freight is easier to load on an open deck than inside an enclosed body — available in rigids, semi-trailers and B-doubles.
When you need a flat-top
A flat-top is the right choice when you need crane loading from above. It's commonly used in the construction industry thanks to its versatility — open access from the top and sides makes loading and unloading straightforward, and freight can be strapped down rather than enclosed.
Flat-tops are also available with a Moffett (truck-mounted forklift) or Hiab (crane), so your freight can be loaded and unloaded at sites without their own equipment.
What you can ship
Steel and structural materials, precast concrete, timber packs, machinery, equipment, pipes and poles — freight that's easier to load and secure on an open deck.
Point-to-point or hourly hire
Flat-top trucks are available on point-to-point or hourly hire. Choose point-to-point for a straightforward A-to-B run, or hourly hire when you've got multiple stops, site time or an open-ended job. Get an instant quote and we'll price the best option.
