Should E-Track be Used in Bed of Trailer that Will Haul Dirt or Rocks
Question:
I wonder witch system would be best for me. My trailer have a steel plat floor and I use it mainly for transporting wood, dirt, rocks and some times vehicules such as VTT, motorbike. So I guess the etracks might get full of debris hard to remove. What do you think note: its an home made trailer

Expert Reply:
If you are going to be carrying dirt and rocks in your trailer you really aren't going to want to put E-tracks on the floor. They'll get full of debris like you mentioned and would make shoveling out of the trailer much more frustrating.
A better option would be a flush mounted tie down anchor like the aprt # RR05.
