Here is the issue guys. I want to maximize my driving time. The problem is I run a flatbed which I love. If you haven't ran a flatbed before you probably wont really understand what im trying to do here but anyway... lets give a scenario.
Lets say I drive for 2 hours and get to my pickup spot. However it takes 2 hours to get loaded and then another 2-3 hours to strap and tarp. Well, naturally this eats into your driving time.
How do you flatbedders get around this.

We don't take 2-3 hours to secure it....
Working Class Patriot, Coonass and dollylama Thank this. -
Are you asking folks to tell you how to violate DOT regs?

I am not a super trucker, but I don't lay down and take naps while I am working either. The plan is too be organized and have a system down. Make every move count.
Working Class Patriot Thanks this.

Loading, tarping, strapping....takes about an hour and the same for unloading....
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.....

Simple solution is to be like Notarps.....Don't tarp period and you'll be fine......
Well, in a perfect world.....
