I've been driving a concrete mixer for three years, and I'm thinking of going the roll off route. From what I've read the worst thing about a roll...

Well, I have the choice of getting a new (to me) truck and was looking for some input. Right now I'm in an 05 Paystar. (concrete mixer) here are...
I think I'd make it through, I'm 12'6. Problem would be width
