Cargo Securement Rules
January 1, 2004. The rule change revolves around tie-
downs for equipment. Currently, one-half of the working
load must be secured, which is generally done with two
chains of appropriate grade. The new rules require a
minimum of four tie-downs regardless if two cover the
weight of the working load. The tie-downs should be
placed at the front and the rear of the load and at
appropriate points in-between. Additionally, all
neccessary equipment must be completely lowered and
secured. Articulation vehicles must also be restrained in
a manner that prevents articulation while in transit. The
change creates more work for the driver, but should
eliminate roadside haggling over whether or not a load is
properly secured.
