Skidded coils

Secure with straps or chains, crossed and use proper edge protection. Don't be lazy, cross strap each coil or stack. I prefer straps on skidded coils. 4' drop tarps with padding.

Here is one we did recently...

 

Skidded coils can be done a few different ways
It all depends on how they are set.
With out better information it’s difficult to provide some ideas.

@PoleCrusher has a good photo of one method posted above. This is the basic idea for most situations.

 

I dont strap then. But others do. Rubber under the front stack, X chains with edge protectors. Single chain on anyone behind the X as long as it covers weight. If you space them out, another X chain. You should X chain back stack, this I do and dont do just depends. If you have a tall stack it gets X. If the require they get 3. I tarp the lazy way.

 

No wonder you don’t get nothin done. Using all that securement like that.

 

Only somedays I'm half fast, others I'm half ...ed.

 

These are 6 4ft x 4ft coils. I cross chain the front coil, then strap the other 5. I thought I had a pic of just the coils but I couldn't find it on my phone.

 

Don't haul them cheap, as in drive the rate down using the "backhaul" term.

Its not black iron, it finished, or semi finished product. Charge a proper rate.

 

Use something other than plastic strap protectors, too slippery. Use carpet or rubber protectors. Be very precise with strap or chain placement so they won’t slide off the coil
