Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need a special licence for tray or flatbed truck hire?
Licence requirements vary by vehicle size and state regulations. Our booking system will confirm the necessary licence class for your selected vehicle.

 

Q: How do I secure items on a flatbed truck?
Safe load restraint is crucial for any journey. Use appropriate rated straps and tie-downs for your cargo weight, securing items to the truck's designated anchor points. Items should be distributed evenly across the tray and secured individually. We recommend checking load security at regular intervals during your journey, especially after starting your trip and at any rest stops.
