Security is Key

Did you know that areas with active construction projects and major shipping ports are the most common for equipment theft? Fleet vehicles are more susceptible to theft by professional thieves who look for the easiest opportunity to steal new equipment.

Newer equipment models are stolen often because of a higher resale value which can cause big losses for companies. Higher equipment theft creates a need for increased security measures in work trucks.

How can you Protect your Work Truck? Don’t make your fleet vulnerable to theft.

Keep your doors locked at all times!
The most common reason vehicles get stolen is due to easy access. 80% of stolen vehicles are attributed to unlocked doors.

Park in well lit areas
Don’t isolate your truck! Parking near other vehicles in illuminated areas will reduce attempts to steal your truck.
Hide your valuables!
Thieves are constantly looking for the newest equipment to seize. You can protect your valuable equipment with Fleetwest’s Load’N’Go Security Top!

Does Your Work Truck Have a New Coat?

A Powder Coated Finish can change your fleet for the better! This protective finish offers many features that improve your transferable truck body. Powder coating is long-lasting, resistant to wear, durable, and consistent in color.

Here are some Powder Coating Benefits:
  • Impact Resistant--powder coating creates a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint.
  • Weather Resistant--liquid paints wear easily in harsh weather conditions. A powder coated finish resists corroding, fading, and rusting better than standard paint.
  • Sustainable--powder coating is great for the environment! This fine finish reduces negative environmental impact by eliminating the use of volatile organic compounds.
The Result:
A uniform, durable, high-quality finish that will improve the overall aesthetic of your fleet. With a Powder Coated finish, you won't have to worry about damaging your paint job, meanwhile protecting the environment!




Fleetwest Transferable Truck Bodies offers a Powder Coated finish on Load'N'Go models. This is just one more advantage to the long list of features that make the Load'N'Go perfect for your fleet!

Safety First

Conscious driving is essential for road safety while driving pickups. There are many important factors that contribute to being a safe driver. Pickup drivers have to make mindful decisions while on the road. It is important to remember the extensive damage trucks can cause in collisions.

Here are some tips to help you be a safe driver:

Don’t let your cell phone distract you!
Avoiding your phone while driving is an easy way to stay focused on traffic signs and signals. Texting and talking on the phone is a distraction to drivers and causes many unfortunate accidents.

Keep a steady pace
Speeding and driving too closely behind other cars is something to be avoided while driving. Steady driving is a smart and easy way for drivers to pay attention to blind spots and remain safe and focused on the road.

Hauling cargo wisely!
Tools rolling around in the bed of your pickup are an easy way to become distracted on the road. This problem can be avoided with the proper storage options available with Fleetwest transferable truck body options. Fleetwest now offers the New Durashell 175 and 145 models equipped with:

·        Customizable storage space
