Fence crews move long, awkward material all day: posts, rails, rolls of chain link, panels, concrete bags and post-hole equipment. The right truck body means fewer trips and no damaged material.
What a Fence Installation Truck Needs
- Long, open deck: A flatbed carries 8-, 10- and 12-foot posts and rails without hanging over the tailgate.
- Locking tool storage: Post drivers, augers, tensioners, come-alongs and fasteners ride safer in a service body.
- Payload for concrete and wire: Concrete bags and wire rolls add up fast, so check GVWR and payload before choosing a chassis.
- Tie-down and rack options: Stake pockets, headache racks and accessories keep loads secure.
Recommended Setups
Residential and light commercial crews: A Norstar flatbed on an F-350 or Ram 3500 handles most jobs.
Heavy commercial and ranch fencing: A Bedrock or CM flatbed on a dually gives the payload for pallets of material. Browse all truck beds for sale.
Crews that want one truck: A CM service body with a ladder rack carries tools plus long material overhead.
Steel or Aluminum?
Steel handles the abuse of dropped posts and dragged rolls; aluminum saves weight for more payload. Ask us which fits your daily loads.
