I guess I just have not been getting out often enough, but I don't think that I recall ever seeing styrofoam being hauled on a flat bed!!

It would take one hell of a lot of styrofoam to weigh 23,000lbs!!! Maybey it is some other kind of foam?? ....like, say, some kind of sponge foam used in upholstering furniture or car seats??

Yeah I wonder what kind of foam it is that does not require any tarping?...........I would imagine that at a bare minimum it will require a smoke tarp.
maybe the "spencinator" can elaborate further

Good point, Jackrabbit!! According to Spencerains origional post, there is no tarping, just strapping. Leaves me to wonder how they would protect the load from the elements, road debris, and the like!!

I guess it could be shrinkwrapped or something....but even then the straps would tear it up.
