Enddump

Thanks guys I’m super excited about this opportunity but still remain cautious and nervous the driving part doesn’t bother me but the dumping does lol

 

I know it gets intimidating but also pay attention to how it’s loaded, also if it starts doing something funky In the air either put it down early or put it to the boards so you can get the load to break out of the nose and make sure you run the piston into the last stage (try to stop a smidge short so you don’t slam the piston) guys get scared and put them up 3/4 of the way which changes the center of gravity and will get them to roll as well, and any time you go into a landfill try and put a piece of plastic in the nose

 

So how long do I give myself to see if I like the job

 

Most ppl know within the first month if it’s for them or not

 

I’m gonna try it all I can say if I don’t like is it’s not for me we will be hauling to ports and stuff of that nature and dumping on a barge people have told me horror stories but I’m gonna take it slow

 

Crap I got the truck home and trailer we will be driving mostly 2 lane riads

 

Is that a bad thing?

 

No not at all I’m just new to this trucking I’ve driven dump trucks a bunch but never a tractor trailer only when I got my cdl

 

End dump is one of the easiest things to drive there is.
And nothing wrong with a 2 lane road.

 

Thanks guys for all the help getting ready to load my first load
