The Hybrid Solution: Best of Both Worlds

A Conestoga system transforms your standard flatbed into a high-performance hybrid. You get the versatile loading capabilities of a flatbed (side-loading or crane-loading) combined with the weatherproof security of a dry van.

Why Make the Investment?

While the upfront cost is higher than traditional tarps, the long-term ROI is undeniable:

• Time is Money: Open or close your entire system in under 2 minutes. Eliminate the hour-long struggle with heavy, 100-lb tarps.

• Driver Safety: Significantly reduce the risk of falls or back injuries. No more throwing tarps in high winds, rain, or snow.

• Cargo Integrity: Zero risk of crushing delicate cargo with tie-down pressure. Perfect for high-value lumber, specialized metals, and paper products.

• Premium Rates: Brokers and shippers pay more for premium equipment that guarantees cargo arrives dry and debris-free.

Specifications & Limitations

To ensure you choose the right equipment for your business, consider these factors:

• Oversized Loads: Since the system frame is fixed, you cannot haul loads that exceed the trailer’s width or height.

• Weight Capacity: We recommend staying within the 44,000 lbs range to maintain the integrity of the mechanical rail system. Always refer to your specific system's rating.
