    They've been working on getting these heads off now for over 3 hours, and they tell me now that they are going to weld on some lift eyes to take them off and I won't be out of here till at least noon. I freaking hate unions

    Don't you haul these a lot? How do they usually come off?

    I would think a forklift on both sides from the bottom and you pull your trailer out from underneath? They set it strait down and repeat on the next one?

    Then they can spend the next 6 days trying to figure out how to move them!

    Do you take the stands back with you or do they stay?

    The racks are propriety to my company, one of the owners has a patent on the design. They usually use one of these on the edge to lift it out of the racks using an overhead crane or a large forklift. 20171108_080432.jpg

    Problem with these guys are they are union and don't like having to lift them using those things, they are resorting to welding on a lift eye a taking them off by overhead crane

    Finally got a proper overweight load with this company. But why would I need oversize banners for only OW? Boss says I do so I do.
