HOW TO SAFELY CARRY DRYWALL IN A PICKUP TRUCK?

A hauling rack elevates the drywall up above the top of the wheel wells and also extends that support to the tailgate.

USE YOUR PICKUP's SIDE PANELS

All you have to do is bolt the two, 2x4s down and you are ready to start stacking sheets of drywall on top of them.

All you need to do is lay as many 2x4s across the width of your truck bed as necessary.

If you want to use your truck bed for transporting sheets of drywall, don’t sweat the fact that your truck may be too small.
