A-Frame Slab Transport
Stone slabs moved upright, strapped, and intact.
Just In Time Delivery hauls stone slabs across Tampa Bay on dedicated A-frame trucks — granite, quartz, quartzite, marble, porcelain, and sintered surfaces loaded upright against padded A-frames with dunnage and ratchet straps, moved between slab yards, fabrication shops, showrooms, and jobsites.

How we protect the load
Purpose-built A-frame racks
Slabs ride upright against a padded steel A-frame — never flat, never leaned on a strap alone. Rubber-faced supports keep polished faces off metal.
Dunnage & ratchet straps
Timber dunnage under every slab, foam or carpet between faces, and ratchet straps set by crews who know what a bookmatched slab costs to replace.
Yard-to-shop-to-jobsite
Slab yard pickups, transfers between fabrication shops, showroom sample walls, and finished-top runs to residential and commercial jobsites.
Jumbo slabs handled
Full jumbo sizes up to roughly 130" x 78" and oversized porcelain panels — tell us the dimensions and we bring the right frame and crew.
How a slab run works
- 1
Tell us the slabs
Material, slab count, dimensions, and the pickup and drop addresses. Photos of the rack or bundle help us size the load.
- 2
We schedule the A-frame
Dispatch assigns an A-frame truck and crew and confirms the window with both the yard and the receiving shop or site.
- 3
Loaded & secured
Slabs are loaded upright, separated, dunnaged, and strapped. Condition is noted at pickup so nobody argues about a chip later.
- 4
Delivered & offloaded
We deliver to the receiving A-frame, rack, or staging area. Where a lift is needed, we can pair the run with our forklift service.
Who we haul slabs for
Stone & slab yards
Move sold slabs out to fabricators the same day instead of tying up your own truck and crew.
Countertop fabricators
Pickups from multiple distributors on one run, plus finished-top delivery to the jobsite.
Tile & surface distributors
Porcelain panels and sintered slabs delivered to showrooms and dealers without freight-damage roulette.
Builders & remodelers
Slab and finished-top delivery timed to your install crew, not to a carrier's route schedule.
Need a lift at either end of the run? Pair the haul with Forklift 4 Hire.

Quick answers
- Who hauls stone slabs in Tampa Bay?
- Just In Time Delivery, a Riverview, FL based final-mile carrier, runs dedicated A-frame slab transport between slab yards, fabrication shops, showrooms, and jobsites across the Tampa Bay region.
- Why can't slabs be laid flat on a flatbed?
- Laid flat, a slab flexes over the deck and cracks on road shock. Standing upright against a padded A-frame with dunnage and straps keeps the load in compression and intact.
- Can one run cover multiple slab yards?
- Yes. A single A-frame run can pick up from several distributors and deliver to your shop in one trip, which is usually cheaper than separate pickups.
Slab transport FAQ
- What is A-frame slab transport?
- It is stone transport on a truck fitted with a steel A-frame rack. Slabs stand upright and lean against the padded frame, separated by dunnage and secured with ratchet straps — the only safe way to move granite, quartz, marble, and porcelain slabs any real distance.
- Which materials do you haul?
- Granite, quartz, quartzite, marble, soapstone, porcelain and sintered slabs including Dekton-style ultra-compact surfaces, remnants, and finished cut tops.
- How large a slab can you move?
- Full jumbo slabs up to roughly 130 inches by 78 inches, plus oversized porcelain panels. Send the dimensions and slab count and we confirm the right frame and crew before booking.
- Do you deliver finished countertops to jobsites?
- Yes. We move finished cut tops from the fabrication shop to residential and commercial jobsites in the Tampa Bay area. We transport and place the material; we are not a countertop installer.
- Can you load or unload where there is no forklift?
- Often yes — we can pair a slab run with our Forklift 4 Hire service so a truck-mounted forklift and trained operator meet the load. Tell us the site conditions up front so dispatch sends the right equipment.
- How is slab transport priced?
- Slab runs are quoted per job based on slab count, dimensions, mileage between stops, and any lift or crew needs. All quotes are estimates until confirmed at booking.
- What areas do you cover for slab hauling?
- Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Brandon, Riverview, Lakeland, Bradenton, and Sarasota, plus surrounding Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Polk, Manatee, and Sarasota county destinations.
All quotes are estimates only and are subject to verification. Final pricing is confirmed upon booking.
