How much does a section of Trex fence weigh?

One 6 ft high section of Trex Fence, which includes two posts, pickets, rails, and everything else in between, weighs about 240 lbs. Trex Fencing materials are designed with strength, durability, and versatility in mind, which is why the material is heavier than many other fence systems.

This is important to keep in mind when ordering Trex Fencing, as this is not typically something that can be off-loaded by hand from the truck. We require shipping locations to have a forklift on-sight to handle the material. If you're a homeowner and don't have access to a forklift, don't panic! In most cases, we are able to arrange for the shipping company to provide a forklift service. Keep in mind though that this will add to your shipping costs. In other cases, we can ship the material to a nearby freight terminal. If you have access to a double-axle trailer, you can pick up your order there and the terminal service will load the material for you at no extra charge. 

Fortunately, the weight of the material means that your Trex Fence is designed to last. Trex Fencing can take a beating from kids, animals, the elements, and time. The Benefits & Virtues of Trex Fencing gives more detail concerning the advantages of Trex over other common fencing materials.
