to all end dump haulers...

That’s going to be a disaster

 

Well guys and gal I had my first setback today. Brought a load of slate to Illinois got to my delivery raised the bed and not one rock fell out!! I have had some material hang up before but never the whole #### load!! My trailer is now sitting in a shop in Joliet thanks to @ChicagoJohn it was great seeing ya buddy!! Honestly I get now I should have put down some type of antifreeze but I didn’t think it would freeze at least not this bad!! Hoping for a better day tomorrow hopefully all is well

 

We used to have a power plant nearby, I've seen loads of coal frozen in. Then they come out all in one lump, and make a heck of a boom.

 

I’m hoping to skip the boom

 

At this point do you really care if there's a boom?

 

It was great to see you last night. I was happy to help. I'm hoping it warmed up enough to get it out.

 

Well other than a couple small clumps it slide out like it was never frozen. Now my trailer floor is filthy and I had to go out my way to get it washed out yeah have a good one everybody

 

We spray down Magic (I think it is a salt brine) then half a bag of rock salt, then put plastic on the walls/bed, then another half a bag of rock salt on top of the plastic.

Of course some loads I’m not allowed to put anything down and hope it all comes out at the final.

 

We spray the sids and floor down, and put down a bad of salt, Not working tomarrow, its getting down to 5 degrees tonight.

 

So tomorrow I am unloading a load of scrap and then headed to get a washout so I can reload feed ingredients. Pretty sure my trailer will flash over within 3.2 milliseconds after getting the washout...

And I’m fairly sure the load will be just warm enough to melt and refreeze itself to trailer
