Nationwide Steel & Metal Freight Transportation
I’m Bryan Ellis, The Freight Fella—a freight broker with King of Freight. I help manufacturers, metal suppliers, and fabricators coordinate nationwide transportation for steel coils, beams, plate, pipe, sheet metal, and fabricated components. Flatbed, step deck, conestoga, and tarped options are evaluated around your shipment’s dimensions, weight, loading methods, and weather-protection needs. All freight is brokered through King of Freight.
Steel and Metal Freight Transportation Options
Flatbed Transportation
Open-deck transportation for beams, plate, pipe, and fabricated components requiring side or overhead loading. Share piece weights, dimensions, and loading requirements when requesting a quote.
Step Deck Transportation
A lower main deck may suit taller fabricated assemblies and equipment. Trailer selection depends on loaded dimensions, weight distribution, and loading access.
Conestoga Transportation
A retractable tarp system provides weather protection while allowing side and overhead loading when opened. Interior clearance and shipment requirements must be confirmed before booking.
Tarping and Weather Protection
For loads requiring tarps, I coordinate equipment around the requested coverage and handling needs. Tell me about moisture sensitivity, sharp edges, packaging, and any special protection requirements.
Details That Help Keep Steel Shipments Moving
Accurate shipment information helps coordinate the right equipment and reduce avoidable pickup or delivery delays.
- • Piece count, dimensions, and individual weights
• Packaging, lifting points, and loading orientation
