I just got a flatbed truck—what do I need to make towing easier?

If you’re planning on towing, you’ll want to start with the right hitch. A 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch is great for hauling heavy loads, while a heavy-duty receiver hitch gives you more versatility. And don’t forget trailer wiring so your lights and brakes work properly. It’s a game-changer when you’re towing big loads!How do I keep my cargo from shifting around while I’m driving?Nothing worse than hearing stuff slide around back there! Ratchet straps, stake pocket anchors, and chain binders are solid options to lock everything down. If you’re hauling big equipment, adding lashing winches helps keep it extra secure. No more worrying about things flying off your truck!Want a full breakdown of which straps work best for different loads? Check out our Tie-Down Straps FAQ for tips on picking the right ones!

My tools are always all over the place. Any good storage solutions?

A flatbed toolbox is a total lifesaver. Keeps everything locked up, organized, and protected from the weather. If you’ve got smaller gear that tends to roll around, cargo nets or trailer cargo organizers help keep everything in one place. No more digging around for that one wrench!

What can I add to make my flatbed safer and more functional?

A few key upgrades can make a big difference! Ladder racks help if you haul long stuff like lumber or pipes. Mud flaps keep your truck (and other drivers) from getting sprayed with dirt and rocks. And if you’re carrying heavy loads, a headache rack adds an extra layer of protection between your cab and whatever you’re hauling. Oh, and don’t forget a spare tire carrier—because no one wants to be stranded with a flat!
