Best Answer

There are various types of trailers, each with its own loading procedure and considerations (e.g., most van trailers have sliding tandems, whereas most open deck trailers do not). The question as is tends to be a bit too vague to reasonably be answered here - covering every type of trailer and the correct loading procedures in different instances would be a substantial amount of information to write a book on.

How to Secure loads on tractor trailers?

Straps! God you need lots of straps up under the bonk! Also load locks works when there is no were to put straps on a trailer. ------ And again, another inaccurate answer, given by an imposter claiming to be in the industry when he is not. Securing loads on a tractor-trailer depends first on what type of trailer you have. For van trailers, if loads require securement, this can be done with load locks and with straps which go wall-to-wall on the trailer, and lock into brackets located on the trailer wall. For flatbeds, stepdecks, curtainside trailers, lowboy trailers and other equipment trailers, the driver will secure the load using straps, chains, or a combination of both, depending on the load, and the type of trailer in use.


If a tractor is insured is the trailer that the tractor is hooked insured?

I would have to say no. I have a tractor that is insured the only thing that is insured is just that the tractor (fire theft etc). Although You can get your trailer insured just as you can an ATV horse trailer car truck if you had a policy for it. your tractor insurance will not help with the trailer.
