The Four Best Flatbed Supply Companies in The Midwest

CHRIS KUTZ

Because of the higher risk factor and specialized expertise that comes with the job, flatbed truckers tend to get paid higher than other truckers. In 2020, flatbedders averaged an annual income of $13K more than dry van truckers, and about 8 cents more per mile. With extra pay comes extra challenges of course, and these challenges include getting the right supplies for whatever load you’re about to carry - but if you’ve got the vigilance and the special skill to do it, especially during heavy traffic, then you know how fun this job can be. One of the most popular regions to jump into the business is the midwest, which is exactly why we chose the four best flatbed suppliers from that area.

An online store lets customers read about the dimensions and specs of each product, warranty information and also offers the exact price of each piece of equipment. You can order online for in-store pick up at one of their two locations in Middletown and London, each open on weekends. From cargo control, to truck tarps, to metal products like boxes, ramps and cab racks, they sell a range of flatbed accessories and necessities, all with multiple size options.

Now covering over 50,000 square feet, the company has become a single-source provider for dozens of fleets and individual owner operators across the country. In addition to housing outsourced equipment, they have their own manufacturing facility that helps cut out the middle man and offers direct wholesale prices.
