Use Mesh Tarps

Mesh tarps serve a variety of purposes. With so many different shapes, sizes, and weaves, you'll find a mesh tarp for just about any need. Mesh tarps are usually used to provide shade for plants and people, but they are also used on the back of trucks to secure and protect produce and other transferable objects. They are made in different percentage shade factors; some weaves are more dense than others. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Use a 60% shade factor mesh tarp to shade people and plants. Secure these tarps to trees or homes to keep the sun out.

    • 2

      Place an 85% mesh tarp over fine material on the back of a truck to keep it from blowing away. These tarps are ideal for transporting refuse, waste and large trees.

    • 3

      Cover your truck or trailer with a 60% multi mesh woven from vinyl coated polyester in an array of colors. These are good for truck cover, but not for shade.

    • 4

      Use the tarp straps or tie downs found on mesh tarps to secure them to boats, trucks, or machinery. Choose the mesh tarps made from flame-resistant material.

    • 5

      Add strength and mildew protection by purchasing a vinyl laminate mesh. It is light and airy, yet provides ample protection from the sun and wind.

Tips & Warnings

  • Mesh tarps are excellent for providing privacy from neighbors, especially if the only fence between them is chain-link.

  • Some of the less dense tarps aren't good for hauling debris, because the weave isn't tight enough to hold the garbage down.
