A day in the truck Hauling Cement! (Pneumatic trailers)

Here i'm hauling some cement powder and giving a brief overview of the loading and unloading of the Pneumatic trailers.

[@garygerard4290]

I hauled cement for maybe 6 different companies in California. We're allowed 80,000 lbs gross on 5 axles - 'about 53,000 powder I've watched a number of truck driving videos, a lot of bs and shine. That video sure took me back, wow. I might have trouble sleeping tonight but I'm glad I watched it - thanks

Rock on dude that was smooth

[@robertblain9968]

I did this stuff for 11 years. Kind of miss it

[@terrellscaife2411]

Action pack great video

[@sfh294]

Very informative thank you for making the video.

[@RAL686]

We're in Central Oregon and since they closed the local load yard in town off of railroad cars, we have to drive 3 hours to Portland to load our powder truck. And since we have a hard time keeping a driver to drive the route every day, we have to order a delivery from another company to have it delivered to 1 of our 4 reload yards.

Keep the videos coming my new friend ....been there and done that pneumatic cement powder and trucking myself brother 😎

[@johnandrews389]

That whole set up is sick. You have the 48 inch hightrise or midroof sleeper. You don't see them often. How about a video on the truck?

[@Ericcarter42]

I don't want to make the wrong judgment but it looks like it's pretty easy work is it or is it pretty hard I'm only asking because I just got my CDL and I'm looking for a line of work that's not too strenuous because I was shot in the back on deployment so I'm not as flexible anymore 😌

[@somewhere-n-Texas]

This is extremely easy! I'm currently a cement hauler for a big concrete company here in the Houston Tx area...I came from doing dang near 20 yrs of asphalt road work and this is exactly the job I needed after all them years of hard labor 🫡

[@somewhere-n-Texas]

If you can get a job doing this, you won't regret it!

[@miascastro2157]

If u don’t mind me asking what company in Houston do u work for.

Can anybody tell me what is the least physical (trips in/out of truck) between pneumatic, transfer, or end dump. I recently got my Class A CDL with all endorsements, but have bad, arthritic knees. Trying to pick the route that will be provide the most longevity. Thank you in advance.

[@neckarsulme]

Not too sure about pneumatic, but I have driven transfers and end dumps and Transfers are a lot of in and out, end dumps hardly at all

[@dchoney9435]

@@neckarsulme thanks for the info, I appreciate the feedback.

[@RufusTBiscuits]

I’m same way and unfortunately I flatbed. I did pneumatic for oilfield and tanker. Both were minimal work other than dragging hoses

[@runespaze]

Aside from removing the hose from the truck and where ever you're blowing, you can also have a trailer with incab switches for the valves. That what i have.

[@ameri-cantruckerschannel3081]

What spec for truck needed ? Thanks

[@bigshot9462]

How you doing. Have a question can you full up your concrete bulk trailer and leave it or you have to unload it even if it the concrete silo is full

[@johnneufeld02]

You can leave it, we have left a trailer full for a week before and it unloaded fine after that.

[@hectorgarcia-zv1wi]

This shit seem far more better then doing dry van

[@hectorgarcia-zv1wi]

Yup fuck dryvan off loading 3000 case nope 👎 I’m swiching it up

[@Ty-ky3bp]

It is but people fuck up by over pressuring and also sitting in the truck

[@humantruckjack423]

Wish I our place had doubles

[@janapaya2772]

What company you have I'm a bulk driver for more than 4 years at cemex philippines

[@trucktrailerparts]

hose pipe factor for cement trailer

[@evaristosanchez8677]

How many loads you do day

[@cholowarrior9997]

You can do bout 2 good loads a day or 3 to 4 loads in the city but those city loads dont pay worth a shit you got to get an over weight permit if you want to make any real money and the schedule sucks graveyard shift for life but that’s all part of the hob

[@ayoogo]

[@_Bandido1911]

[@somewhere-n-Texas]
