Abstract
A load transport device includes a deck suitable for supporting large square agricultural bales thereon. Side portions extending along opposing longitudinal sides of the deck are supported for movement relative to one another in a lateral direction so that a horizontal spacing therebetween is adjustable to accommodate various load sizes. A clamping force can be applied to the side portions for urging the side portions towards one another to clamp a load between the side portions for safe highway transport.
