Flatbed Truck Bodies
Monroe Custom Bodies is the most reliable source for truck bodies. The flatbed truck is a true classic, though most don’t think of them when considering heavy duty work trucks. While a flatbed body may seem simple, a rigorous standard of performance is just as imperative as with any truck body. The design of a flatbed body makes it simple to create and even simpler to enjoy, with top-notch maneuverability for busy city streets that doesn’t make you compromise on power. Flatbed trucks are well-suited for a wide variety of industries including utility, municipality, maintenance, and more.
MATERIAL
Our flatbed truck bodies can be made from high-grade aluminum or steel.
Aluminum
Aluminum allows for a lighter van, maximizing fuel efficiency without compromising on efficacy. Aluminum is a cheaper option that maximizes efficiency in all senses. It is roughly a third of the weight of steel, while providing the same quality of service in many situations. Aluminum is an excellent choice for almost any truck body.
Steel
Steel is heavier, but offers increased durability that puts extra years on its long lifetime. Steel can withstand even the harshest working environments, so they are often recommended for rugged jobs. When you need to haul the heaviest payloads in the most extreme conditions, stainless steel is an affordable option that will handle these obstacles time and time again. Steel can haul much heavier loads than common alternative materials, as it is a heavier metal than popular aluminum truck bodies. If you need a rugged workhorse that can handle even the most demanding jobs, you will need a quality stainless steel truck body to get the job done dependably year after year. It is durable enough to handle any amount of harsh weather conditions, be it a blizzard or a heat wave. While all of our metals provide sufficient protection from the elements, stainless steel is also corrosion resistant.
We source the highest grade metals; so no matter what you choose, you know you’re getting the highest quality truck body on the market.
DOORS
Our truck bodies are top-of-the-line down to every detail, and one of our favorite details are doors. Our signature hidden hinge system allows our doors to overlap with the body, making it impossible for doors to bind up with a heavy payload. Additionally, they remove the need for hemmed edges, removing the possibility to trap water and salt.
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
We offer an array of different additional options for our flatbed truck bodies. Additional storage options like drawers and boxes are all available in a large range of sizes. Galvanneal steel plating can be installed to provide slip resistance and extra protection from the harsh elements.
