    I've had several loads like this, where there's a pallet or two that need covered. A 16x16 machine tarp, with more frequent rows of D rings would work well I think. Getting my 24x16 to fit well is a bit challenging.

    Gonna have to do it again this Monday, on a piece that's 8x7x4.

    How about, if you can't speak English, therefore can't understand instructions, you can't load.

    If I was the shipper, that would be my policy. Why take the liability risk of working with someone who may injure themselves or someone else because they can't understand simple instructions?

    I thought speaking/understanding English was a requirement for a CDL.....has that changed?

    DuPont in Joliet has that policy. In big letters. No English, no load.

    Maybe not big enough for you but Joplin Tarp keeps a half steel tarp in stock that is 12X16, plenty of D-rings and I have used it many times in place of a full sized tarp. Rolls up nice and small and easy to toss around. I have used it way more than I thought. 12BC64A9-F2D6-4F59-941F-D4276F09F71F.jpeg 98A3E26E-1175-475D-AEDD-454395936551.jpeg
