Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

If they ask why you should wrap the pocket and hook back to the chain tell them because that's what the manufacturer say to do to get the full strength.

 

I, Brsims, do hereby formally request induction to the flatbedder "Big Boy Adult Trucker Club".

New company, new truck, different trailer (formally a steel, pipe, and aluminum hauler with a straight 48' spread axle flatbed)

 

Tomorrow's load to Worthington mn.

 

Hey mj.....





Ya got a loose strap there.....

 

Ya just a couple!

 

Got that! Now just need to experience the grunt labor, hard thinking, cussin' and swearin' part.....

 

Don't forget humble, pure of heart, and free of sin. Right guys?

 

Hoping to get some time with the stepdeck (like six months or so to get really comfortable with it) and then step up to the RGN, but that will be up to what the company needs at the time. Definitely looking forward to trying my hand at some OverSize freight when the chance comes up.

That said, and tips, tricks, advice, or butt whoopins' just on general principles will be greatly appreciated! This is obviously a whole different world from 'sticks and bricks' flatbedding, and it wasn't until I started that I realized I don't even know what it is I don't know!

Figured out real quick that prior steel hauling experience means very, very, VERY little!
