Hey everyone! Sorry to bug you on here, but I'm a heavy hauler from Vancouver, BC, so I figured I'd ask my fellow drivers for help. I entered in a...
Hahaha nicely done! :biggrin_2559:
Indeed I am. I totally agree, I don't think I could ever bump docks again.
Thanks! I was just curious about differences between Canadian and US based companies. I'm local 31, and I'm doing all heavy haul/construction. I...
Haha indeed we do. That, and abusing our bodies on a daily basis...
Good call haha. What's the experience requirement for Teamsters in the US anyway?
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] This was from the last company I was with. First photo, picked up an excavator in a very rich residential area. I didn't...
Ahh fair enough, but we don't just do long loads at Davey. I just pulled a 14' wide a few weeks ago. The Port Mann is completed, but we're hauling...
Ya I was trying to crank the landing gear and lower my bags, but I'm not exactly as strong as some of you manly sorts :P I'm actually pretty...
I pulled a set of doubles to a ridiculously laid out jobsite and broke them up to unload. When hooking them back up, I jumped the pin on my pup...
Not allowed to back up doubles eh? Makes sense, I guess. After I quit OTR LTL, I did machinery hauling for a few months, and when they hired me, I...
I'm lucky that what I haul doesn't require tarping, however, when I have to break out the 1/2" chain, I'm still feeling it pretty good the next day...
I'm delivering to a lot of jobsites, where they need me to back against a crane, or around random other crap they strategically place in my way......
Home in Vancouver, waiting to be dispatched... It's been ridiculously slow lately, and it's killing me!
Hey I didn't say I can't back them up. Just not well. Or for any significant distance... Backing up a jeep, dolly, and booster is a whole...
Haha nope, but I haven't had to back them up much yet. When I did, it was the epitome of "gong show"... I'm still very new to heavy haul, and it's...
I actually just started pulling doubles about a week ago, with no advice or training too. Nice to know I'm not the only one! I'm starting to get...
I cooked nachos on my engine block once, and it actually worked surprisingly well. If the item can be wrapped in tin foil, stuff it in your turbo,...
This is what I haul :) I'm hauling girders mostly, but I also haul other oversize/overweight loads. Fun stuff! [ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH]
I'm stuck at a truck stop just outside Mobile, AL due to "Tropical Storm Lee". It's pretty darn ugly out here...
