How to properly unload a hopper and load a hopper

me too!

 

Roll tarp before loading.

I'll admit to having it done to me, and doing it once myself.

 

A vibrator is a must in my opinion. Use a portable one if the trailer doesn't have permanent mounted ones. If your rails don't have the bracket pockets to set the vibrator then if you own the equipment get em put on at timpte or Wilson trailer shop. Or have the boss do it if you work for someone. Reason being is the suction cup vibrators run 1300 plus. The kind that sit in the bracket can be attained for a 150 bucks. Get 3 in one oil to keep it oiled. On another note, I'm not sure why people call em welfare wagons. Yeah I've seen some cheap rates on back haul stuff but overall I made 76k last year as a company driver an home most weekends. I'm on track to do a little over 80k this year. I don't feel that's all that bad considering the boss pays me off 80% of the gross. Heck if he paid off 100% I'd be closer to a 100k. Both figures are considerably better than when a pulled a reefer for six years staying gone 3 an 4 weeks at a time.

 

Barley silage ?

 

No..just barley. It's low bushel weight is why we put it into bags. Better quality went into bins.

 

I've unloaded off of end dump like that process is showing there. When I did it we were hauling gluten feed. Not sure what that guy's hauling.
