The run
What moves on this lane
Birmingham makes steel and ductile iron pipe, and much of it moves on flatbed. Utilities, contractors, and fabricators in the Raleigh area buy it.
Pipe and steel are long, heavy loads. Our flatbed drivers chain them down and check the load during the trip to Raleigh.
Share piece lengths and weights when you book, so dispatch can confirm the right deck before the truck is sent.
