Two flatbed trucks are listed for sale in the UAE today, both from the same supplier, who is not yet verified. One is in Dubai and one in Sharjah. Both are Mercedes. With two listings there is no typical price to quote, so use the figure on each listing and ask the supplier whether it is open to offers.
A flatbed has a flat load deck with no sides or roof, which makes loading from any direction possible by forklift, crane or hand. Contractors use it for steel sections, pipes, blocks, pallets, cable drums and site cabins. Because the load is exposed, securing it with chains, straps and edge protectors is part of every trip.
Choose by deck length, axle rating and whether a hiab crane or tail-lift is fitted. Fixed-side or drop-side decks give some extra control over loose loads. If these two do not fit your work, Post an inquiry with the length and payload you need. Other rigid trucks are on the trucks for sale page.
Match the deck to your longest regular load. Steel bars and pipes often arrive in 6 or 12 metre lengths, and a short deck leaves too much overhang. Ask the seller for the internal deck length, the rated payload and whether side posts or headboards are fitted.
Often yes, if the chassis, axle rating and subframe can take the crane's weight and its tipping moment. Always check with the crane maker or a bodybuilder first. A hiab crane also reduces the payload left on the deck, so factor that into the weight you plan to carry.
Inspect the deck boards or steel floor for rot and cracks, the lashing points, the headboard and the tyres. Check the chassis for weld repairs and the engine for oil leaks. Ask for the registration card and service records, and confirm the paperwork matches the chassis number.
Use chains or straps rated for the load, edge protectors on sharp corners, and at least two tie-downs on any single piece. Load heavy items low and forward over the axles. The supplier can tell you the number of lashing points and their rated strength.
