Tarp

Truckers use tarps to cover and protect their loads and other drivers. Falls during tarping are a serious safety concern for garbage trucks, gravel trucks, tank cars and trucks, flatbeds, and others.

Padlock and seal
Security seals are tamper evident mechanisms used to seal cargo in transit shipping containers in a way that provides tamper evidence and some level of security. ... Security seals are commonly used to secure truck trailers, vessel containers, chemical drums, airline duty-free trolleys, and utility meters

• A tailgate (Canada) or liftgate (USA) is a platform at the rear of the truck, used for loading and unloading heavy freight at locations without docks and forklifts.

Tailgate
Trailer cable is an integral part of the brake and safety system, powering circuits for LED tail lights, brake lights and turn signals. Use trailer connectors and plugs to create solid connections between trailers and the trucks, RVs and heavy equipment used for towing.
Trailer cables
Red cable – Control brake system. Green cable – stability.
Blue cable – control all trailer electric system.
