A hybrid laminated wood floor for cargo-carrying truck trailers, truck bodies and containers is provided. The hybrid laminated wood floor is formed from two or more different types of hardwood strips that are mixed in a controlled manner and arranged in a pattern. The hardwoods are selected to provide a difference in the average density of the wood types. The hybrid wood floor provides weight reduction and cost savings as compared with a conventional laminated wood floor made of a single type of wood, such as oak or hard maple.
