Flatbed Goosenecks & Deck-Over Trailers

Flatbed Gooseneck and Deck-Overs

Flatbed gooseneck and deck-over trailers are designed for hauling heavy loads, including equipment, vehicles, and palletized materials, often used alongside equipment trailers or tilt trailers depending on loading needs. With set-ups that support wider decks and improved weight distribution, they’re commonly used for both commercial and personal transport.

As the nation’s top manufacturer of professional-grade trailers, we offer a wide range of models designed to handle your toughest jobs. Explore our selection of deck-over and gooseneck trailers to find the perfect fit for your hauling needs.

Flatbed Goosenecks

Flatbed gooseneck trailers use a hitch mounted over the rear axle of the tow vehicle, helping improve weight distribution and towing stability. They’re commonly used for transporting large equipment, vehicles, and palletized materials over longer distances.

Hydraulic Dovetail Goosenecks

Hydraulic dovetail gooseneck trailers use a powered rear section to simplify loading and unloading. This configuration is often used for heavy equipment where consistent, controlled loading is required.

Deck-Over Tag-Alongs

Deck-over tag-along trailers feature a full-width deck positioned above the wheels, allowing for the transport of larger equipment and bulk materials. They’re commonly used when additional deck space is needed without switching to a gooseneck setup.

Deck-Over Pintles

Deck-over pintle trailers combine a wider deck with a pintle hitch, making them suitable for hauling heavy loads across uneven terrain. This setup is often used in construction and industrial environments.

Flatbed Gooseneck Vs. Deck-Over 

Choosing between a gooseneck and a deck-over trailer depends on how the load is distributed and how the trailer will be used.

Choose a gooseneck trailer if you need:

• Improved weight distribution for heavier loads
• Greater towing stability, especially over longer distances

Choose a deck-over trailer if you need:

• A wider deck for larger or oversized equipment
• Flexibility when loading different types of cargo
