Questions You Should Know about Fence Semi Trailer

First load is tomorrow. Hauling fencing materials on pallets. The broker said he doesn&#;t know how much of what, but generally it&#;s mixed with barbed wire, fence posts, etc... for a farm store. Does anyone have some tips for hauling his stuff? Beings as it&#;s my first O/O load I don&#;t want to go out and look like an idiot. I&#;m carrying 14 4&#; straps, 6 16&#; chains, 6 20&#; chains, binders of course, steel and carpet corner protectors, and tarps I don&#;t need for this load. Everything is on pallets.

Fence loads can be fun...........

You may not want to use chain on this load. The products can and will move and settle.

Most likely all of the fabrics and related things will be on skids, and may be banded to the skid depending on product. Some may just be stacked with a sheet of corrugated between them. It should also be shrink wrapped. You may want To use V boards for the wire rolls and mesh products.
The fence post will be easy.
They should be in banded bundles on skids. They will be painted, so you may not want to use chains, some places get picky about that. Usually stack two high and two wide. Make sure they are tight together. If so, toss at least 2 or 3 ( alternate sides ) straps over top, and use carpet strips under straps. If you want, take a 2 in portable and choke the stacks.

You can make V boards out of 1X4s. 4 foot may be the best for the load. If you have some old cut straps, use them to make the V boards.

I&#;ve done some fencing, mostly for hog farms and agriculture, none of the loads have been oversized.

Bring some good edge protectors and you&#;re probably gonna end up throwing everything you got at it save for chains &#; I was always told straps only.

It&#;s usually a heavy load for us, with bundles stacked seemingly wherever by the shipper. Try to get some layered straps mixed in, especially if they have gates stacked vertically. Belly strap if you absolutely need too.

If it&#;s a lot of barbed wire &#; felt padding is your friend. The posts are usually on pallets and banded together. Normally the simplest and least worrisome part of the entire load. It&#;s the fence and gate that will concern you the most depending on how they load them. They should band them together. However, they might be stacked vertically and as mentioned above &#; they&#;ll settle.

Biggest hurdle will be protecting the straps. They often like to rub on things in the wind. Make sure the contact points are covered with something (could be a piece of cardboard even) and you put a half twist in the strap on any one that has a gap between it and the load so it doesn't flap going down the road.
