I know what the x strap is for. And its not needed on big square bales that are loaded right. Properly loaded hay takes a very severe lean to come off the trailer. Shingles, onions, insulation bundles........ yes.
You call them X's I call them bra's. I can't help it that black long nose pete fried your forehead from sun glare...
Hey TMC reject. That number you gave me was that your home # before you went to ATS or your cell? I started to call you the other day.
I passed by the home terminal on Saturday, luckily it was raining and I won't have to spend too much time getting rid of the stench.
I x-strapped or horseshoe chained EVERYthing I could that was square: Pallets, bricks, etc. Even built dunnage bulkheads whenever I had room to. With TMC and both other flatbed companies I was with. I was not about to lose a load under ANY circumstances. Just figured every car driving behind or beside me had MY family in it. Only takes a couple extra minutes to get the extra securement on. TMC taught me well and nowadays when I see a flat on the road, I compare their securement to the oversecurement I was taught at TMC.
Might want to check back there in the bunk for that bucket o chicken bones you left and them nappy ole smelly clothes you tossed back there.
