Canvas tarps are mainstays at construction sites, fire
departments, cargo operations, salvage companies and schools, for covering
outdoor equipment. Affordable, fold-able, long-lasting tarpaulins are also
favorite buys of city dwellers, suburbanites, farmers and outdoors enthusiasts
for their sheer versatility.
Lightweight canvas tarps are indispensable for landscaping and
home improvement projects, protecting decks and patios during outside paint or
repair jobs. In freezing winter weather, protect plants on an apartment patio
or a backyard garden with a water-repellent canvas tarp. Screened porches can
be shielded using insulating tarps on brisk or stormy days. Farmers cover hay
and tractors with canvas tarps, which resist costly condensation
Our U.S.-made 100 percent single-filled military cotton duck
fabric tarps at TarpSurplus.com have triple-stitched hems and sturdy grommets
placed every 24 inches for easy tie-downs. They’re water-resistant but also
breathable, which means they won’t trap moisture like poly tarps. Available in
10-ounce or 12-oz. weights, these handy military-grade cotton canvas tarps are
bestsellers at Tarp Surplus.
Campers use lighter-weight tarps as makeshift overhead
shelter from the elements during outside picnics. Avid bicyclists stow
lightweight, tear-resistant canvas tarps in their saddlebags to cover their
bikes and themselves during sudden rain showers. Hunters use canvas tarps to
line the floors of duck blinds.
They’re water resistant, but not waterproof, which makes
canvas tarps great protection for light rain. Because of dyes and finishes,
they’re recommended for outside use. Canvas tarpaulins are sturdy, but not
tough enough for trailer, boat or car covers. Shop our line of vinyl tarps for
those jobs.
Keep a folded canvas tarp in your car trunk to spread on the
ground when checking under your hood or repairing a flat tire. Unlike some
slippery poly tarps, canvas tarps stay put when you walk or stand on them.
Then, line the floor of your car trunk with the tarp, toss in the flat tire and
your tools, and enjoy a safe ride home. Not only do canvas tarps have hundreds
of uses; you can reuse them hundreds of times.
