24’ bobtail trucks flat or enclosed

Release time: 2021-11-12


A 24' flat head or closed short tail truck is a type of heavy-duty commercial vehicle that is typically used to transport large, bulky items. The distinguishing characteristic of this type of truck is its trailer bed, which is composed of two chambers - one for the cargo and one for the independent gooseneck load. The size of the truck is determined by the length of the trailer, usually ranging between 13' and 28'.

Typically, this type of truck is used to transport items such as large containers or boxes and logs, as well as long objects like furniture or conduit. The closed end of the trailer restricts movement, so it can be safely loaded with a forklift or crane, ensuring that the cargo is secure during transport. Other advantages include increased capacity, easy loading and unloading, and protection from wind, weather, and road conditions.

Gooseneck loads can also be attached to the back of the truck, allowing for more cargo weight and more efficient handling of larger loads. Generally, these loads range around 40', but can be adjusted to meet the needs of any particular job. Attaching gooseneck loads should be done carefully and securely, to ensure that the contents are not damaged or lost during transit.

Overall, 24' flat head or closed short tail trucks provide several advantages over other commercial vehicles. When correctly utilized, they can increase capacity and maneuverability while protecting payloads from potential weather or road damage.
