When a 3.5 tonne flatbed works
A 3.5 tonne flatbed is one possibility for Hoddesdon jobs carrying fencing, boards, tools, scaffold planks, compact machinery, garden materials and small pallet runs, where the handling task outweighs the need for a larger class. Confirm bed length, side access and safe standing space during the quote.
When to ask about a 7.5 tonne flatbed
Multiple pallets, machinery, long materials and larger site orders may call for more deck capacity than a van provides. Ask whether a 7.5 tonne lorry fits, and cover access, driver requirements and the unloading method.
