Specialized Rates for Your Specialized Drop Deck Equipment
A step deck (drop deck) trailer allows carriers to haul taller cargo—up to 10 to 11.5 feet in height—that standard flatbeds cannot legally transport without specialized over-height permits. This capability unlocks some of the highest paying industrial spot market rates in North America.
At MAB Dispatchers, our specialized open-deck team understands the distinct capabilities of your trailer—upper deck dimensions, lower well length, ground clearance, and ramp configurations. We negotiate premium rates on specialized equipment, construction machinery, and energy sector shipments.
How MAB Maximizes Step Deck Revenue
1. Tall & Specialized Freight Matching
We match your trailer with cargo specifically requiring lower deck height, ensuring brokers pay specialized equipment rates rather than standard flatbed prices.
2. Ramp & Drivable Equipment Pay
If your step deck is equipped with loading ramps, we secure premium drive-on/drive-off machinery hauls that command substantial rate premiums.
3. Oversize Permitting Guidance
For over-width or over-length loads, we ensure state permit fees, escort requirements, and routing curfews are fully reimbursed by the broker.
4. Zero Forced Dispatch
You have 100% control over the cargo you haul. You review and approve dimensions, weight distribution, and securement specs before booking.
5. Full Accessory Compensation
We negotiate top compensation for drop tarps, dunnage, chain binders, corner protectors, and multiple pick/drop stop charges.
6. Rapid Factoring Support
Immediate submission of signed bills of lading, delivery photos, and permit receipts directly to your factoring company for fast funding.
