E-Z DECK Truck Loading Guide

 

Load bundles of E-Z DECK® Panels two (2) wide and four (4) high.

 

Load racks of E-Z DECK jacks two (2) high and with the jacks set parallel to the length of the trailer. Block the racks in by other products on both sides.

 

Load bundles of Z-BEAMS® three (3) wide by five (5) tall with dunnage-grade lumber between each stacked bundle.

 

Load bundles of E-Z DECK Posts two (2) wide and three (3) tall with dunnage-grade lumber between each stacked bundle.

 

Be mindful of the weight differences between the steel Z-BEAMS and E-Z DECK jacks and the aluminum E-Z DECK Posts and Panels and distribute accordingly. Always load the E-Z DECK Posts and Panels on top of stacks if mixing steel and aluminum equipment.

 

It is a good practice to use larger bundles to block in smaller palletized items like buckets, U-Heads, Swivel Heads, or Drop Heads to help keep them from shifting in transit.
