DeRidder, Louisiana sits at the heart of Beauregard Parish — a region driven by oilfield service, forestry, timber harvesting, and military operations near Fort Johnson (formerly Fort Polk). If you work in any of these industries, you know that your truck has to earn its keep. Star Truck Equipment in Wharton, TX serves DeRidder buyers with professional-grade truck beds, flatbeds, service bodies, and crane bodies — with shipping available throughout Louisiana.

Wharton is approximately 220 miles west of DeRidder — a straight shot across I-10 and Highway 190. Many of our DeRidder-area customers make the drive for the sheer variety of our in-stock inventory. Others let us handle delivery. Either way, we make it easy to get the right truck body for your work.

Truck Bodies Built for DeRidder’s Industries

Beauregard Parish is known for oilfield service companies operating across Southwest Louisiana, logging and timber operations, and contractors supporting Fort Johnson and surrounding military installations. That means trucks need to be tough, functional, and reliable in the field.

  • Service Bodies (RKI, STI) — Built for oilfield field service, equipment maintenance, and military contractor support. Locking compartments, tool organization, and rugged construction.
  • Flatbeds (CM, Norstar, Bedrock, Bradford Built) — For timber haulers, equipment movers, and contractors needing a versatile open deck. Available in steel and aluminum.
  • Crane Bodies (STI, RKI) — For oilfield service and heavy-equipment contractors who need a lift. Our crane body lineup handles everything from light-duty picks to serious rigging work.
  • Standard Truck Beds — CM, Norstar, NXG, and Pronghorn beds for everyday contractor and ranch use in Beauregard Parish.
  • Hay Beds — Bedrock, CM, and Bradford Built hay beds for cattle operations and farms across the parish.

STI & RKI: The Oilfield Standard

Southwest Louisiana’s oilfield service sector demands truck bodies that can hold up to rough use, chemical exposure, and constant loading. STI service bodies and RKI service bodies are favorites among oilfield contractors throughout the region — built in the USA, designed for hard work, and available through Star Truck Equipment with delivery to DeRidder.
