Truck Tarp?
Ok... I've searched all the forums and don't seem to see anything about Truck Tarps... lots about covers, but I'm looking for just a form-fit tarp for the back end.
I found this online http://www.tarice.com/Truck_Tarps/truck_tarps.html
but was wondering if there is anything else out there before I go buying one.
Especially if any of the standard auto-stores carry them??? I looked online at a few and didn't find anything.
Of course this is all last minute as I'm planning on moving some stuff this weekend and if its snowing I'll need to cover it up. If you have one or know of a company please let me know
Thanks!

This has been my experience with truck tarps, the wind whips them back and forth, back and forth and a hole or tear appears. This is especially true when covering odd sized items that stick up at different angles such as moving furniture.
Now if I needed a tarp every other day, I would invest in a heavy canvass and work hard to tighten it down at every point to minimize damage.
Since I so rarely use a tarp, I invested in a few cheap $4.00 6x8 plastic tarps.
I cover the items but don't waste my time on tarp abuse prevention.
When they tear, boo-hoo woe is me, then I throw them away.
I have found there is also a direct correlation between how much time you spend covering crap and how much percipitation you'll get but, that is getting into weather forecasting and is a whole different topic.
