That being said- as people have pointed out- this height can vary by quite a few inches depending on load and suspension- thus why ramps (from a dock) are standard equipment for trailer loading.

Lifetime Gold Member Mar 29, 1999 3,299 Granite Falls, WA Around four feet, give or take a few inches. It's too high for an engine hoist to put anything on the flatbed, if that's what you're trying to do. OTOH, most LTL companies will have a trailer with a tailgate on it come to you, so all you have to do is get it on the tailgate and the gate lifts the load. You must log in or register to reply here.
