What is an unsecured load? An unsecured load is anything in transit that has not been fastened or attached to the vehicle. Tarps, rope, straps, netting, chains, and/or cargo bars may be used to prevent any part of the load or the covering from becoming loose, de-tached, or leaving the vehicle while it is moving.

How to secure your load Tie down. Use rope, bungee cords, netting or

straps. Tie larger items directly to your vehicle.

Lighter goes lower. Put lighter items at the bottom of the load, and weigh them down so they don’t blow out.

Don’t overload. Keep material level with truck bed or trailer if at all possible.

Double-check. Always double-check your load. Ask yourself, “Would I feel safe driving behind my vehicle? If the answer is, “No,” then you need to do a better job of securing your load.

Facts Securing your load helps prevent roadside

litter.

Penalties can range from a $228 citation all the way to criminal charges if property dam-age or injuries result from the unsecured load (source WSP).

Netting, straps, rope, and bungee cord can be used to tie each large item to the vehicle. Since there is nothing in the load that can blow out, a cover is not needed.

Garbage cans are secured to the truck with a strap.

Lids are secured with bungee cords.

Tarp covers the entire load and is secured with cargo netting.

Tie downs are missing. Debris can fall or fly out of moving vehicle. Load should be covered with tarp and cargo net.

Tie downs are inadequate. Top, sides and back of load is not secure. Vehicle is overloaded. Load should be secured with straps and/or cargo net.

Debris can fall or fly out. Load should be secured to the trailer with rope, netting and/or straps.
