What qualifies as a nursery tarp?
Is it just big see though netting?
What would I buy such a thing?

A mesh tarp is what I use. I buy mine from a nursery supply here in tn. where I live.Standard size is usually 16x55.Aywhere from $165.00 to $265.00 depending on the weight of the material.Some tarp shops make them also.

I use them hauling nursery stock, sod, trees. Made out of see-through netting.

I have mesh tarps that I use when we used to haul some sod loads. Not sure on the length but they are 16 wide. Takes two to cover a full trailer.
They work good for loads that just require a tarp to keep shrink wrap or packaging from coming off.SHC Thanks this. -
You need to cover plants so the wind does not shred them to pieces.
-
Most of the time, those are used for low speed local hauls.
-
Sod guys wanted the mesh tarps. Regular tarps would cook the sod. Mesh tarps keep the sod from drying out to much.

I use them to haul in the spring... big trees. they aren't cheap but when the trees are running and you have them . you can make really nice money if you know the right folks.

We use them for our B&B nursery loads, a regular tarp will quickly cook a tree.
