Flatbed Shipping That Fits Your Freight

Rhode Island flatbed demand is driven by marine and boatbuilding fabrication, industrial machinery and specialty manufacturing, and structural steel and building materials for a dense Southern New England construction base.

Freight moves the I-95 spine through Providence with I-295 wrapping the metro. ProvPort is a working deepwater port handling breakbulk, cement, and bulk cargo, and the Port of Davisville at Quonset is one of North America's top auto-import and project-cargo ports, feeding open-deck volume off the waterfront. This planning is specific to Rhode Island.

Across the state we consolidate open-deck routing between Providence, Warwick, Cranston, and Pawtucket, running multi-stop lanes that stage steel and machinery and deliver straight to yards and jobsites where no dock exists. A single flatbed run can drop marine components at Quonset and building materials in the metro. This planning is specific to Rhode Island.

Rhode Island is a two-to-three-day lane from our Pineville terminal south of Charlotte, running up the I-95 corridor through the Northeast, and we handle it as scheduled OTR with a firm window confirmed before dispatch. For shippers with steady Providence open-deck volume we set up dedicated flatbed lanes and drop-trailer programs, and we handle oversize and overweight permits when a load runs over standard dimensions.
