    Pictures of the last couple loads I actually had time to snap a picture of. First 3 are of a meat grinder, 4th is that darned old irrigation pipe. Should've taken a video and posted it on here for the unload of that pipe today. Used a backhoe to unload it along with some good ole fashioned redneck ingenuity in the form of 8 4x4s to create a ramp. Definitely not the safest unload I've ever had but at least I didn't have to worry about them bumping my trailer :biggrin_2559:

    We used to unload drill pipe and casing that way run chains from the side rail to the racks crawl under the trailer and knock the pins out with a hammer. The real trick was knocking both pins out at the same time so you didn't have a mess.

    When I hauled some 4" PVC they did the same thing. I left just the center strap on, then they put chains from my trailer side to the rack, and lifted by trailer with the big fork truck, then had me cut my strap. They replaced the strap with a new one (they had a few cases just for this) I was kind of confused by the method but it worked... so hey, why try to tell them how it should be done jack!!!

    I'd post a picture of my load but I already did I'm just northbound instead of southbound.

    Yea it worked but with casing you only forgot your earplugs once they sounded like church bells every time one hit the rack and were loud.

    Now if I'm looking at that correctly it would appear that you have john deere equipment on your trailer and case ih equipment on the trailer as well either that or massy.
