Flatbed Shipping That Fits Your Freight
West Des Moines flatbed demand rides on office, retail and mixed-use construction across the growing western metro: structural steel, rebar, machinery and building materials sized for open decks. Steel and machinery crane-load onto an open flatbed, while a Conestoga tarps freight that needs protection. This planning is specific to West Des Moines, Iowa.
West Des Moines sits along I-80 and I-35 on the metro's west side, feeding the state's main freight corridors and Union Pacific rail. Iowa is landlocked, so open-deck loads reach these jobsites over the road rather than a port. We plan securement, tarping and crane or side-loading windows around each load, staging steel and materials the way a busy commercial site needs before the truck rolls. This planning is specific to West Des Moines, Iowa.
Around West Des Moines we consolidate open-deck routing to Urbandale (4 mi) and Des Moines (7 mi), plus Ankeny (14 mi) and Ames (38 mi), delivering to jobsites and plant yards without docks.
