CARGO NET VS STRAP SELECTOR — PICK THE RIGHT RESTRAINT

Describe your load. Get the right cargo restraint — net or strap — for safe transport every time.

Cargo Net or Strap — Which Is DOT-Legal for Your Load?

Both contain cargo. Only one is legal for your specific load type under FMCSA securement rules. Get the right call instantly.

Select your cargo type, weight, and vehicle. The tool applies FMCSA 49 CFR §393 securement rules and tells you which method is compliant for your load.

Using a cargo net where straps are required is a DOT inspection failure. The distinction is load weight, size, and shape — not personal preference.

Pickup truck drivers, commercial haulers, van operators, and anyone moving cargo on public roads.
