    2 loads I've done recently. I've got forklifts on now, but no pics from a distance.

    Every load I pickup I take pictures of how they are secured after the shipper approves it. That way no blame is on me. I also take pictures of each individual until during loading so no damage can be blamed on me.

    Already saved me on 2 claims.

    Picked up 44k lbs of galvanized steel that is supposedly a tower when put together like a lego kit. All fine and dandy until I go to deliver.

    In the middle of the mountains in West Virginia that is nothing but an absolute mud pit where it has rained for like a week straight. I’m absolutely amazed I didn’t get stuck. Add in a wooden bridge about 50ft long over a stream. No concrete, purely wood and looked rickety as you can get. Pucker factor at max.

    I love deliveries and pick up's like that. Always a fun time. I had to pick up from a farm recently, those 16cyl cat blocks going for rebuild.
    "We get trucks here all the time" then I come around the corner,
    "You're bigger than the other guys we get here.."
    Yeah dude, I have a specialized FB with fixed triaxle centre lift. I can haul heavy tings to big places.

    I call them F.O.C.U.S. customers.
