LUMBER TARPS
Pick the drop your load needs — then the weight your back can take
Every tarp here shows what it weighs, because that is the number you feel at the end of a long day.
How To Choose
Pick your drop first, because the drop is the size. A 16x27 tarp is always a 4 ft drop, a 20x27 is a 6 ft, and a 24x27 is an 8 ft. Match it to how tall your load rides and the rest follows.
Then look at the weight, not the ounces. You are the one throwing it up there, and an 8 ft combination tarp weighs 100.8 lbs while the RipStop in the same size weighs 76 lbs. That is 25 lbs you feel on every load, and it is why the 11oz RipStop is the tarp most of our drivers settle on. It is light, the crosshatch weave stops a tear from running, and it patches with glue at a truck stop instead of a sewing machine.
Go heavier only when the freight earns it. Bare steel and sharp edges chew through thin vinyl, and that is what 18oz is for.

“Got 2 4ft tarps and 2 8ft tarps for my husband’s birthday since he drives a flatbed. He’s been using them non-stop — says they’re the best tarps he’s ever had. They seriously withstand everything!”

“I purchased several items from Cargo Control Center, including tarps and chains. Driving in severe conditions and dealing with sharp and heavy cargo, I haven’t had any issues — no damage, no failures.”
