2 weeks on the road with a heavy hauler

Hello my friend, my name is Newton, today I am 80 years old, years ago I worked with big machines and super heavy trucks like yours. But when I saw your video working with care and responsibility, nostalgia hit my heart, so in view of all your dedicated work, I just have to thank you for the gift of your video and the memories of my past. 😊😊 👏👏👏

Thank you very much for your comment and kind words Newton! It’s true I take pride in my work. I’m sure this work is very different than when you did it years ago. Rules & regulations mixed with new technology, it was probably a lot more interesting in your days!

I appreciate watching all the prep and unfolding of the trailer as well as all the rigging that goes with each load. It shows others that might not know what actually happens. I mean, it's part of the job so why not show it? It definitely makes for a more interesting video than just a ride-a-long. I enjoyed it very much compared to other trucking channels that only show a very brief ultra fast time-lapse of their transport. Great camera angles help too! You've earned my sub after watching a few other videos, but definitely from this one and the longer extended version, because of the explanation and showing what you're rigging up while you're doing it. Also, hearing the truck run rather than the music all the time would be a nice addition, even with the wind lol!

[@luckybananaheavyhaul3407]

They sometimes remove the buckets and put them on a flatbed depending on where the loader is going. The bucket alone weighs 10,000 lbs and requires a bigger trailer just to carry the extra weight. Depending on the state the bigger trailers sometimes require police escorts and the cost is cheaper to just send the bucket on a separate truck.

I’ve never weighed exactly the big 10x12’s but I would guess 200+lbs. If I grab them in a bear hug like a human being I can lift them but usually I just lift one end at a time and flip them. The big tarps weigh about the same.

[@luckybananaheavyhaul3407]

Every state and province has different escort requirements. With this trailer configuration and these types of loads places like Ontario and Illinois do not require an escort however an escort was required in Michigan and Indiana. When the video was being filmed from behind obviously the camera was mounted on an escort. Unfortunately there is a lot of competition in this business and there is no budget to hire escorts which are not required by law.

[@luckybananaheavyhaul3407]

Dragging the wheels is not recommended at higher speeds. It’s fine if you’re going slowly and being gentle. In this case there is a high center crown in the road when leaving the customer but I know it’s only going to touch lightly so that’s fine. If I come to a bigger obstacle like a set of raised train tracks I will get out and physically lift the trailer higher to avoid damage.
