Cargo Services & Load Handling

24/7 Cargo Recovery & Load Handling for Freight Problems on the Road

Cargo problems can stop a shipment even when the truck itself still runs. Shifted freight, unstable loads, damaged trailers, rejected deliveries, rollover scenes, and blocked access points all change how the cargo needs to be handled. 

Strickland Towing & Tire Service supports cargo recovery, load handling, trailer transfers, and freight stabilization across South Central Kansas and North Central Oklahoma. We serve all main traffic routes in the area, including I-35, I-135, the Kansas Turnpike, US-54, US-81, US-77, and US-166.

Call us with the load details, trailer condition, location, and access notes so we can plan the response. We can handle most types of cargo, from refrigerated goods and live animals to industrial equipment and grain. Available day and night, every day of the year.

Cargo Problems We Can Help Solve

Cargo handling usually begins when the load cannot continue under its current conditions. Strickland helps drivers, dispatchers, and fleet teams address load problems as they arise rather than waiting for a perfect dock setup. Call us for situations such as:

Shifted or leaning freight

Unstable trailer loads

Cargo blocking trailer doors

Trailer swaps & load transfers

Rejected delivery situations

Cargo damaged during transport

Freight stranded after a breakdown

Cargo recovery after accidents or rollovers

Built for Drivers, Dispatch & Fleet Operations

Delays, rejected loads, blocked deliveries: cargo issues affect more than the trailer itself. Damaged freight and stranded equipment can all affect the next step in the route or supply chain. We solve these issues for:

Owner-operators

Independent drivers

Fleet managers

Dispatch teams

Logistics companies

Warehouses

Distribution centers

Commercial freight carriers

Load Handling & Cargo Support Services

Not every cargo problem happens at a dock with forklifts and warehouse staff readily available. Many freight situations require on-site support at the trailer’s current location.

Strickland provides cargo handling support for roadside, industrial, and job-site situations where loads need to be repositioned, transferred, stabilized, or recovered.

Load Shift Correction

A shifted load may place unsafe pressure on trailer walls, axles, doors, or cargo securement systems. We reposition and stabilize freight so the trailer can continue safely when possible.

Load Transfers & Trailer Swaps

We coordinate on-site load transfers and trailer swaps to help carriers keep freight moving through the supply chain with minimal additional delay.

Cargo Off-Loading & Reloading

If cargo needs to be completely removed and reloaded before transport can continue, Strickland can deploy heavy-duty recovery equipment, including rotator support, to assist.

Forklift & Equipment Support

Some cargo situations need lifting support beyond manual handling. Forklift and equipment support can help move freight safely during transfers, reloads, and recovery work.

Emergency Cargo Recovery

Cargo recovery becomes even more complex when accidents, overturned trailers, or roadway spills are involved. Freight often has to be stabilized, recovered, transferred, or secured before the roadway can be cleared safely.

Strickland supports:

Cargo recovery after rollovers

Freight stabilization

Load securement

Trailer recovery

Cargo transfer coordination

Recovery transport support

Our operators work to keep recovery scenes organized so drivers, dispatchers, carriers, and recovery teams can coordinate the next step efficiently.

On-Site Cargo Services Where the Load Sits

Cargo problems rarely happen at convenient locations. A shifted load may occur at a highway pull-off, construction site, rural road, warehouse yard, or distribution center where equipment is limited.

Strickland can bring cargo handling and recovery support directly to:

  • Highway shoulders
  • Freight yards
  • Warehouses
  • Construction sites
  • Distribution centers
  • Industrial facilities
  • Agricultural operations

That flexibility allows freight problems to be addressed where the load currently sits, rather than waiting to transport it to another location first. Our refrigerated trailers allow us to handle even time-sensitive cargo.

Local Cargo Recovery Across Freight Routes and Industrial Areas

With locations in Braman, South Haven, Wellington, and Wichita, we can provide cargo recovery and load-handling support throughout South Central Kansas and North Central Oklahoma. Our operators work along I-35, I-135, the Kansas Turnpike, US-54, US-81, US-77, and US-166, where freight problems can quickly affect schedules, deliveries, and traffic flow. 

Because our operators already work these freight corridors daily, we understand the roadway access, trailer positioning challenges, traffic exposure, and scheduling pressures that often accompany roadside cargo problems.
