About Stake Trucks
Stake trucks are flatbed trucks with sockets around the edges of the cargo area in which removable wooden, steel, or aluminum sides are inserted to enclose the payload area. This unique, versatile body design makes it easy to load and unload a wide range of cargo and reduces the risk of damaging or losing cargo during transport.

Stake trucks can also be used by forestry and landscaping crews to transport timber, limbs, paving stones, trees, mowers, tools, and other materials and equipment. They’re also popular among automotive and refuse companies for hauling car parts, engines, refuse, and more.
