Trailer and flatbed winches come up in different sizes & capacities, and styles say weld-on Winches, bolt on winches, portable winches, cable winches, combination winches and sliding winches
There are also different ways of mounting for winches, mostly side mount weld-on winch & side mount bolt-on winch, standard or low clearance under weld-on or bolt-on winches, and also storable mount weld-on or bolt on winches, which means they can be easily removed from the vehicle when not in use and stored until to be used again; while a portable winch is a flexible and versatile device that is designed for use in locations where a permanent winch installation is not practical or possible
In case of the sliding winches, it is special and typically can be moved horizontally along a track that is mounted on the trailer bed, the sliding winch provides more flexibility where the winch can be positioned on the trailer depending on the different size and shape of the cargo being transported
