How far in advance should we book a Conestoga?

Cowtown Express is an asset-based Conestoga trucking company with a large network of trusted carriers that can accommodate seasonal surges. We recommend booking a Conestoga as soon as you know you need one, so our logistics team can make the necessary arrangements to transport your freight.

What information should we provide when booking a Conestoga?

Our logistics brokers need to know the size of your haul, the pickup and drop-off location’s zip codes, as well as the delivery deadline. This allows them to provide you with an accurate quote and ensure your freight is delivered on time.

Are there any permits to consider for Conestoga transportation?

Conestoga trailers operate the same way as standard flatbed or dry van trailers. They're the same size and have the same weight requirements which means they don't require a permit. However, if you have HAZMAT cargo, our team can arrange transportation and permits for you.

How much does it cost to transport loads on Conestoga?

The cost depends on the distance between pickup and delivery, the deadline, and the volume of freight transported. Therefore, it’s best to contact us with your specific needs so that we can provide you with an accurate quote.

What are the typical Conestoga trailer dimensions?

Conestoga trucks are typically 118-113’’ high, 102” wide, and 48-53’ long, with their lower decks ranging from 37-42’ long. They can transport between 42,000 to 45,000 pounds and are used to transport freight that requires protection from the elements.
