Take the Pledge to
Haul Smart

Securing items to your truck during hauling is crucial - not only to prevent littering, but also to ensure the safety of yourself and other drivers on the road.

Pledge in Action

  • Assess the load and plan accordingly.

  • Invest in durable straps, ropes, or nets.

  • Place small, loose items in containers.

  • Balance the load to prevent shifting.

  • Before driving, inspect all tie-downs.

What to Do

  • Place heavier items at the bottom and center of the truck bed to maintain stability. Distribute the weight evenly across the truck bed to prevent imbalances.

  • Stop periodically to check tie-downs and ensure the load remains secure.​

What to Avoid

  • Don't rely on gravity alone; simply placing items in the truck bed without securing them is extremely dangerous.

  • Don't leave small, loose items unsecured. These items can easily become airborne, creating litter and hazards.
