Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Random parts load to a dairy farm in upstate NY. Followed by some skidded coils from Cleveland, OH back to WI. Receiver wanted the coil load parked inside for the weekend for some reason even though it's in a Conestoga.

These were banded into bundles (not very tightly) and when they loaded them, they put straps over each tier separately. I added some straps through the middle and over the top but of course I had to loosen all of their straps to add softeners. During transit, I didn’t pay much attention to the straps on the bottom tier…I didn’t want to squeeze them too much so as to make that one narrower than the others…

it’s loads like this that make me miss hauling 1 slab of concrete…

 

One of the last loads my wide did with her trainer last week. Aircraft wing frames and samples.

 

If I’m not mistaken, this is what they look like on the other end of the building after they have worked their magic.

Edit: that doesn’t look like the same facility. We haul the skins after they are processed for several different customers.

 

This is in Arconic in Bettendorf, Iowa. We haul larger ones to Boeing in Seattle. I believe these were going to somewhere in the Midwest for gulf stream jets.

 

Hurry up and wait

 

If I ever called my wife wide I probably wouldn’t live to tell about it

 

Very cool pic!

 

Strapping and smoke tarp in the wind is always a B%#*h.
