Owner ops and fleet owners, what do you refuse to haul on your flatbed? Commodities that you no longer accept. Freshly added to my list is elevator components, pain in the ### to prevent from destroying a tarp.
What's some of yours?

I can give ya a heads up on Walmart green return bins...they full of "past due food" Had a dozen of the bins and I parked trailer at the dock...dock hand told me later when he opened the doors there were maggots crawling out of bins,,must have been meat in bins. I have no idea why contents are not put in Walmarts dumpsters for local landfill.

Scrap bales or scrap anything. Not so much the load as the loading area. I loaded twice, got 2 punctured tires. Sometimes I have a steep learning curve.
Maxi sacks of anything and NO tarps.Siinman, Mattflat362, austinmike and 4 others Thank this. -
Greasy old manufacturing machines. The pay rate will be good, but will ruin a set of tarps. New machines will be crated. Old machines will be coming out of some closed down business.
You will get the big machine, plus all the brackets, shelves, nuts and bolts piled up in your trailer. The tarps are supposed to hold the pile of parts on.Mattflat362, Vampire, Sirscrapntruckalot and 6 others Thank this. -
I sat there one time for 2 hours trying to figure out just how to tarp up already built revolving doors going to a bank. Had glass on top and was peaked in the center like a teepee. What a joke.
Loads I refused countless times are cow hides. They are fresh from the cow, haven’t been processed. Gooey and bloody, not to mention stinky. They also want it tarped. Funny enough I see these for dry van loads also. Screw that.Siinman, austinmike, baha and 5 others Thank this. -
