Flatbed Truck FAQ

What endorsements are needed to haul flatbed loads?

A Class A CDL is required for tractor-trailer flatbed combinations. For oversize or over-dimensional loads (exceeding standard width, length, or weight limits), a special permit is required from each state the load passes through. Loads over certain widths may also require escort vehicles.

What is the legal weight limit for a standard flatbed tractor-trailer?

The Federal Bridge Formula limits most tractor-trailer combinations to 80,000 lbs gross vehicle weight on Interstate highways. Flatbeds frequently haul loads close to this limit — verify axle weights and spread carefully. Overweight permits are available for heavier loads on state highways.

Is a long-nose conventional or aerodynamic truck better for flatbed work?

Long-nose conventionals (Peterbilt 389, Kenworth W900) have stronger frame rails and a more traditional look favored by owner-operators in heavy haul and oversized work. Aerodynamic trucks (Cascadia, T680) are more fuel-efficient on standard flatbed runs but less common in heavy-haul applications. For OTR flatbed, both work — fuel economy vs. horsepower/torque spec is the tradeoff.
