Dozens of successful Avro Transport Independent Contractors have upgraded to multi-unit delivery vehicles. “Haul & Tow” trucks literally “haul” one unit on their deck and “tow” one unit behind. Combination, or “flatbed”, vehicles are comprised of a flatbed or step-deck trailer and a power unit, ranging from dually pick-ups all the way up to semi tractors.
The trailers are designed to move multiple units at once. The contractors in this division are typically those who have joined our fleet by way of the Drive-Away or Tow-Away division and then evolved their businesses into multi-unit deliveries. Others have come from a transportation background, having recognized the competitive profit potential.
Our Flatbed division is our highest opportunity for growth. We know that a truck and trailer can be a 6-figure investment, but that simply means your return will be much higher. Most of our flatbed drivers are making $2.30+ per mile.
Flatbed trucking incorporates carrying an open deck trailer that doesn't have any walls like a box trailer or dry van.
Avoid shipping cargo with food and beverage products, as the trailers have no insulation or safety from the elements.
In general, flatbed shipping is referred to as open transportation of large cargo. Once the cargo is loaded, it's moved on a flat base platform rather than in a trailer.
A flatbed has a solid bed, generally of wooden planks with no roof and no fixed sides.
