    I'm just thinking what could make it more challenging. Having to unload while fighting a pair Ninjas. But you use you pump and blind them with product.

    Got to be careful with that used oil.
    Used to have to load back hauls out of safety Kleen facilities and take them back to their Main plant in East Chicago, I
    Once I was pumping their crap used oil and whatever else is in there in to my tank and a huge chunk of metal totally screwed up my pump. Got wedged in there and shut down my pump. If your going to be doing a lot of that get yourself a filter
     
    Bud A. and Orange713 Thank this.

    Our trailers have calibration charts on the side and the shipper actually had a stick to measure!

    I have a filter sitting in my garage. It's going to the truck tomorrow! I used it with ISO tanks. You never know what junk the Chinese drop into the tank.

    We dont train people here.
    They have to have at least 1 yr tank exp.
    New hires will ride with a driver/trainer for 3 days just to make sure they know how to pump and air off loads.
     
    Bud A. and ChicagoJohn Thank this.
