Steel & Aluminum

Coils, sheets, and structural metals protected from weather while maintaining easy overhead lifting access.

Machinery & Equipment

Oversize machinery that needs weather protection but cannot be loaded through standard van doors.

Lumber & Building Materials

Dimensional lumber, engineered wood, and building supplies kept dry with forklift access from all sides.

Project Cargo

Multi-piece project shipments requiring tarp protection with the flexibility of open-deck loading and securement.

If your equipment type is not listed, contact us. If it needs tarped protection with side or top loading access, we can coordinate the move.

Built For Weather-Sensitive Freight

Conestoga trailers are the go-to choice for cargo that needs both flatbed loading flexibility and enclosed protection. They’re tied to manufacturing schedules, steel deliveries, equipment installations, and any shipment where weather exposure is a concern.

We work directly with:

  • Manufacturers
  • Steel distributors
  • Equipment suppliers
  • Lumber yards
  • Industrial contractors

Whether you’re shipping a single oversized load or coordinating regular Conestoga runs across Western Canada, we match the right trailer configuration to your freight requirements.

Conestoga Trailer Transport: The Best of Both Worlds

Combining flatbed versatility with enclosed protection, our Conestoga trailers feature rolling tarp systems perfect for steel, machinery, and oddly-shaped cargo. Load from the top or sides with crane accessibility while keeping freight shielded from the elements during transport across Western Canada.
