Carhauling: Is this any place for a woman?

NO. I would like to think that in this day and age everyone is treated equal, but sadly that is not the case.

 

i would also like to think that you have experience and know what your doing.

no one cares that your a big girl. (your words)

all we care about is safety. and i've seen a couple of cars sitting on the road a time or two.

 

"Question #2: Would you recommend going out and getting driving experience before getting into the business or jumping right in?"

You need to do the same investigation and research before "jumping right in" to ANY new business...period!

Carhauling is the place for anyone, of any race or gender, who wants and will do a good job. I'd be doing it, but I don't really think I'd like driving someone elses valuable cars up and down off the truck. I think securing them, once I learned how to do it properly wouldn't be the hard part for me. My fear of damaging a $50,000 vehicle would be the hardest thing for me.

 

As for your 2nd question....I ditto Krashdragon.

 

how big'a girl are ya?

 

it takes a special person to haul cars, just like some people fit the flat beds, some refers and some dry freight. Jump in and give her a try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

heres a girls blog hauling cars, its well written and entertaining.

 

Anyone can do car hauling but you need some good training. I spent a week in a classroom for half a day and the other half driving cars on and off the truck. And then another two weeks riding with another driver before I was cut loose. I will admit I was stressed at the beginning about damaging cars and how to put everything on the truck without being overheight but everything came with time. Now I just look at my paper work and build loads pretty quickly now and I've been doing it since march. If you want in get a good company that will train and understand damages will happen.
