Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Here's yesterday. My highest paying load so far, and it's mulch of all things. My ETA was right at the end of the window, and I was a minute late. Still loaded no problem. Then I made it to the receiver one minute before the window expired. It was Walmart. They still unloaded me, and let me park. Good day.

At the shipper, there was a dry van in front of me and another flatbedder. They had us go in front of him. We were strapped and rolling out and he was still waiting. They're cursed.

Pallets were fat, and I was hanging over the trailer about three inches on both sides. I decided to pull it. What would you guys have done?

 

Pull it

 

Out of the 50 or so mulch loads ive pulled this year already , its rare i get one that isnt hanging over the sides...idk about the places ur pulling out of but it looks like they pack those pallets really well... The place im at is half assed and the shrink wrap falls apart in 75 miles or so and that black plastic at the top is the only thing that keeps those bags on the pallet. If that comes off ur screwed .. I have lost 4 bags total. And almost had an entire pallet come off if I didnt pull over and catch it in time.. Luckily all the ones ive lost came off when i was in middle of nowhere and nobody saw it or got hurt . but just something to be aware of .

 

Please don't hate me. This is just for today, I'm not switching.

 

Grab that wagon on your left and go load some yard bird. C’mon man just one little hit... you’ll love it

 

Whelp, I'm hooked back up to old faithful. 120 miles loaded, and 120 back with an empty for $1,500. One thing I learned is holy CRAP are these trailers easy to put in a hole. Beats the heck out of a spread, even with a dump valve.

But anyways....never again.

 

Uh huh... Until they throw a pile of cash at you again.

 

Took all day waiting in line, then waiting to get who was getting what sorted out, finally loaded. Headed to Fort Lewis, WA out of IN...

 

you know that is not exactly how 7 axle set ups work.....

 

So you're telling me I can't load another 70k lbs on top?

Well crap, one of these days we'll figure it out, maybe.
