Post your flatbed load pictures here

I can't comment on that except that may have been before the new owner bought the company. I get my paycheck on time every time and get paid real good for not talking about what I'm hauling. As for the company having a "Social Media" policy, you might want to ask the company your hauling a particular load of freight for, a lot of shippers/receivers are adding fine print to the fine print in their carrier contracts specifically prohibiting posting pictures of their freight online.

You may see our trucks loading at ________ all the time but don't assume you know whats in all of them, I can assure you that no one seen us loading this one, and yes it is loaded, I spent the better part of an hour securing it.

 

That's why I never post a picture without the company name and numbers blurred out and usually don't post a picture of the truck at all, just the trailer. I don't spend much time reading the company handbook either.

 

OK i'm willing to take your word on the straps,but i did contact the Spill Team over all that Gravy dripping off the trailer onto the parking lot. Not to mention the poor guys whose windshields you keep messing up when you pass them on the Big Road.

 

Never Mind

 

It was 2007-8 when I hauled some freight for them out of the Kansas terminal and out of Seattle and Portland. It took forever to get paid, to the point of filing on their bond, but their check came through at the last minute. They didn't seem like a bad company, just one that didn't have their crap together. As far as posting pics go, posting a pic of what your truck looks like going down the road should be no big deal. Posting a pic of what's under the tarp could definitely be an issue, as you know. You won't see me posting pics of my contract freight, even the piece I delivered today which is probably the coolest thing I've ever hauled. The shape of the tarps would reveal too much information.

 

Well as far as I know a lot has changed since 07-08, we have a new owner and I just checked their stats on the brokerage side which is showing 33 days average. Not perfect by any means but far better than a whole lot of them out there today.

As for the pictures, we have no "written" policy but our main customer has a very stringent social media policy and as such we are required to adhere to it. Break the rules and you'll likely get moved to a red truck at the sister company hauling garbage freight that pays nothing and every load has to be tarped.

 

Don't worry, all this foundation drilling equipment has soaked up all the gravy lol

 

I was the shortest driver to load and ended up with the tallest load. Sometimes life just ain't fair!

 

This is the second one of these (Franklin Log Skidder) to be hauled to job sites. They have been converted and refurbished into power line sprayers for Davey Tree. I hauled one up to Clarion PA today. This one will be going to Clearfield PA out I80 east tomorrow and I hope to get a third one hauled out to Clearfield tomorrow as well.
