Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

You had to know THIS was coming LOL. THIS is a load of hay.......... Had to do it, sorry LOL

 

I love it!

 

Obviously no one taught you how to stack the bales properly....


This is how you maximize the space on your truck.... Also another reason for a long wheelbase truck.

and hauling baled hay is for #######....

 

My hay haulin dad & uncles would step back in shame at these guys. Lol

 

Wednesdays load. Probably old news to a lot of you guys, but it was my first time doing molds. HUGE pain in the rear end to load and secure. And I don't know if it was necessary, but I started loading making sure the skids were centred, then once I starting tying down I had the forklift guy come back out and push the molds together on the skids, to make things more secure.

I stopped first after an hour like I usually do, to check the load and securement. Tightened two chains. When I stopped for the night I checked again, and had to tighten a couple straps from load shifting.

12 chains and 12 straps total I think. Probably overkill, but I don't care.

I hate the roads in Michigan.

 

MJ should get a kick out of this girl.

 

This was real fun to tarp, especially the back half. I had a few new holes in my rear tarp when I got where I was going.

 

That is big.

 

Darn you mj and my hay. I ended up with your load. Ended up spending 30 mins securing a piece that had shifted too. Never trust a shipper and plastic bands. I've got just about every strap I have on this 11k lb load. Well at least I was able to stop and be a tourist today.

 

Straps over the tarps is cheating!!!! Lol
