One Size Fits All Tarps?

I got away with just lumber tarps for years.If buying new get extr row of d rings about 1 ft down from top that way they will work for steel plate.9 ft drops should cover everything.I have 10 ft for my step.Add a couple of 28x16ft when you can afford it-makes life much easier

 

a 3 peice set of 8 foot drops will do anything you want. Just pay extra for a few more rows of d-rings. If you can afford them, go with the kevlar tarps. They are sooooo very nice, but pricey and a fraction of the weight of regular tarps.

Edit: I like to have d-rings every 2 feet down the sides.

 

The last set of lumber tarps I bought came from sharps tarps in grants pass Or.My steeltarps came from shur-co ft.dodge Ia.I believe there are a bunch of locations for shur-co.Spacing sounds about right with extra row at 1 ft.I used to get a discount at sharps because I was leased to combined transport.They were already made the way I wanted them.You can get them in different weights but the lighter they are the easier they are to tear.You should have a tarp shop in nashville-runs around 800-1000 dollars.Be sure to get patch kit and can of glue-big can.Keep rags,carpet old gloves, anything to protect from sharp edges.Oh yeah,big roll of duct tape.good luck

 

+1 on repair kit!

tricity canvas good products fair prices..

 

My last trailer had 5 or 6 foot drop tarps with extentions you could clip on to get to 8 foot. They were nice, I only had to use the extentions once, everything else was good with the shorter drop which makes tarping alot easier if you not trying to fold 4 feet of tarp up every time.
