Our data
Contribution: derived analysis, downloadable dataset
- Collected: every active for-hire record in the FMCSA Company Census File with a physical address in Grand Prairie, Texas whose MCS-150 filing lists the cargo classes this page counts: 208 carriers, pulled October 19, 2026. Verified carriers are joined to FMCSA L&I (authority, insurance) and SMS (inspections) by USDOT number.
- Published: 20 aggregate counts; the carrier-level records stay on the official FMCSA source and on each carrier's profile.
- Computed: 14 derived shares, each a dataset row with its formula and arithmetic.
- Method: for-hire carriers (the census classification says for hire) that list at least one cargo class usually hauled on open-deck (flatbed or step-deck) trailers: metal sheets, coils and rolls; logs, poles and beams; machinery and large objects. FMCSA records cargo classes, not trailer types. A verified carrier has a HaulAtlas profile that passes the profile index threshold: active in the census, an MCS-150 update in the last 24 months, and at least one record checked against FMCSA in the last 60 days (operating authority with an MC number, insurance on file, or roadside inspections). Verified means the records match; it is not a safety rating. Methodology.

Frequently asked questions
How many flatbed trucking companies are in Grand Prairie, Texas?
208 for-hire FMCSA-registered motor carriers with a physical address in Grand Prairie, Texas list a flatbed cargo class (metal sheets, coils or rolls; logs, poles or beams; machinery or large objects) on their MCS-150, as of October 19, 2026.
Does FMCSA record which carriers run flatbed equipment?
No. The FMCSA Company Census records the cargo classes a carrier says it hauls, not its trailers or trucks. This page counts for-hire carriers that list a flatbed cargo class (metal sheets, coils or rolls; logs, poles or beams; machinery or large objects); a carrier can list several classes, and the list is self-reported. Many carriers here list several other classes as well, so a listing shows what a carrier says it will haul, not the equipment it runs; ask about equipment before you book.
How do I check a carrier's authority and insurance?
Look up its USDOT number on FMCSA SAFER and its MC number in FMCSA L&I before tendering a load. Verified HaulAtlas profiles show what FMCSA had on file when HaulAtlas last checked, with the date.
