    I'm really bummed no one's telling me what I did wrong. Maybe @Dye Guardian will have some tips on how to keep my tarps from ballooning so bad.

    I mean technically it is skidded freight so he should be fine with just straps right?

    Mine aren't skidded. They are on coil bunks and dunnage. You can however haul shotgun coils with just straps though. Scary but it's allowed. Screenshot_2017-01-30-21-48-17.png

    Yep and legally he could of used just the 2 straps on each and met the securement and wll requirements

    Edit, was to slow to reply before Chewy already had the regs posted on it
