flatbed driver

Open-trailer truck operator

A flatbed driver is a truck driver who operates a flatbed truck—a commercial vehicle with an open, flat trailer bed and no sides or roof.

Flatbed drivers typically haul oversized cargo, construction materials, machinery, or loads that won't fit in enclosed trailers: The flatbed driver secured the steel beams with chains before heading out.
