    Did my first flatbed load Monday. It was just a one off deal, power only. Picked up the flatbed at a trailer rental place then off to the shipper. A whole pallet stacked with brand new in the box straps, bungees and tarps was waiting on us at the shipper. It was one of 7 loads. Some kind of titanium cooling tubes for a power plant.

    Took 4 hours to load all 9 crates @ 42,000 lbs, strapped, and tarped. Learned a lot and had fun. Made some mistakes. I'll do better next time. That's the first time I have ever loaded a truck and then stood back proud of the job. I mean you don't really admire the doors on a box trailer after you shut them right?

    Now you just need to find loads to haul inside them.

    Also, I'll trade you the wheels from my trailer for the ones off that white one.
