Flat Bed Trailer Wheel Well Problems

We are having issues unloading some items on flat bed trailers that have 2 sets of wheel wells. Our forklifts are slidding of them especially when they are wet. Are there any "transitions" out there for sale? Or do I need to design and make some? I would like to be able to just smooth up the humps occurring from the wheel wells as we drive over them with a forklift....Thanks.

what kind of trailer is this (make and model?)
is it designed to allow forklifts to operate on it or should it be loaded and unloaded only from the sides?

or just email me some pics of the problem
email is in my profile
