Hour good for newbie?

I'm a little confused on exactly what you did. What did you repair?

 

I would concentrate on safety vs speed. Some might be quicker , some slower but safety is most important.
Obviously the more you practice the more efficient youll be.

 

I would not worry about speed, like ric said that comes with practice. Also different freight will require different strapping/tarping from what I seen so dont worry about how long it takes you as long as you get it done and get the load there.

 

good work If you buy a winder for the straps, or bend a small rebar to do job faster.

 

3 tarps AND fixed holes in them?

Must have been that Benny Hill theme music playing in the background!



Rushing around is a good way to get hurt. That's why some of these lawsuit-phobic shippers makes us dress up like trained monkeys and wear harnesses and set up railings, etc. The very spot you might be standing could have been a place where some driver lay with a busted skull before.

 

Quicker then me lol. Just finished tarping and strapping 22 bundles of OSB on a 53' four axle and it took me 2.25 hours with two 24' tarps.. Just make sure it's done right that's all

 

So how much of that time do u guys log?
