intriguing…a different slant on HGV driving I, as an armchair driver, was totally unaware of. Ever thought of getting into TV presenting? You’d fly it! Very engaging and made what is seen by most as a very boring job, a very enjoyable watch……impressed!

[@ThatRegularGuy94]

Met Luke the other day whilst delivering to the range Cannock seemed like a top lad and his videos were what inspired me to make the change and become a driver, best decision I've ever made, the happiest I've ever been at work and currently saving for my first house. Keep on trucking dude 👍

[@bellowsmain6762]

Really enjoying you content. Takes me back, driving all over the country for my job. Mostly alright but some days, bloody frustrating. Keep up the easy going attitude. It will keep you mentally healthy.

I've only had my class 2 license since May this year. Your videos have saved me on things I've been to embarrassed to ask the hardened lorry drivers lol. But I'm loving driving a HGV. Class 1 in a few months most definitely. You've got another regular watcher 👍

[@gary63693]

Please remember that. The vast majority of drivers will help you if they can. Never be afraid, because one day, you may do something and it could be too dangerous or illegal. When i first passed my class 2, i asked questions. All the best to you and drive safe

Just found your channel. I am Now a new subscriber. Nice to see the difficulties that HGV drivers go through. I am a milkman and have been for 30 years. Drive safe.

[@jaybatsford]

My old man worked for Chep at their place near Birmingham Airport, he remembers when the stack rules changed. It was the result of an incident where a lift truck operator was loading a HGV and was driving forward with a high stack and the stack went over and the top most pallet skimmed across the floor taking the legs from underneath the HGV driver while he was sorting out his curtains. The driver got swept under the trailer and hit his head on the trailer side fairings knocking him unconscious.

[@thomashill3349]

nice one Luke, visions of vicar of Dibley when you jumped into that puddle

[@harrislondon]

It's funny I was an FLT driver for 8 years till I recently moved on to a HGV driver. My site would initially enforce on day 1 10 pallets high max due to seeing over the pallets. Both when loading curtained at 15 or flatbed at 20s. This changed when they timed it and realised its taking twice the time to do the same job... as well as an inexperienced driver having the potential to stack the second lot off centre leading to issues at unload. So they changed it to 15/ 20 if you're comfortable doing so 😅 they prefered seeing a 15 minute full load instead of 30-45 minutes clearly. Time over safety!

[@volvos60bloke]

What a brilliant video. Discovered this today, have subscribed!

[@guymeadows7300]

Hello Luke. I passed you on the M56 today in my old manual Scania with a blue 45ft. container behind me (She does lead on a bit). We made eye contact & i was going to wave hello but i got distracted. Stay happy!

[@leebenson2802]

They stack 10 high because when the pallets are back in the factory for checking and repair the workers check in shacks of 5 and it's easy to count stock.

[@christyler373]

yep

[@malcolmyoung7866]

First day on weekly rest...and I'm watching Luke C in a HGV....I need to get a 'feckin' life...

[@bally55andy]

Great channel Luke, Just found you by watching Trucker Jenko channel. The first drop is just down the road from my house.

[@seberous]

See this is what's crazy with health and safety. They address the risks of pallets falling by reducing stack heights, but don't take into account the extra risks from: the job taking longer so the forklift operating for longer, the risk of hitting someone when lining up pallets and restacking them, and the driver getting annoyed about how long it's taking or their concentration slipping from doing it for so long. Crazy world

[@timtwyford815]

Nice video,I work at Batleys opposite Chep in Swindon.We load em 15 at a time!!

[@ANDREWB7360]

[@PeterPan-my7nb]

They can very well load the pallets one at a go as long as they pay for the time it takes. Charge them properly for the transport.

[@louiswojcik8008]

Had to laugh at that beeping🤣 see you at devon truck show

Stick 3 or 4 layers of tape over the speaker works a treat 👍

[@DICKdeNORMATITY]

Theyll be testing each pallet for woodworm next Mr Ferguson.

[@flitsertheo]

Not necessary with Europallets as they always treated against vermin.

[@toaster7965]

Sir has your pallets been tested for covid? Didn't think so.....

[@jojobroom]

As someone who loads pallets onto lorries for a living, I use a fork truck with double forks and load 15 high. So I take just 14 lifts to load a lorry. 10-15 minutes max. A tidy well stacked yard ready for our customers ie you lovely lorry drivers. The guys I load love coming to where I work as we are ready and professional and quick.

[@derbyphoter]

Oh i'm so glad i had to retire 15 yrs ago when my back went, places like this would do my head in

[@johnbarnes4008]

Awesome vlog mate keep safe and well

[@THDMNTR-qb3mz]

We use a similar warning system on our trucks for turning left, on the actual unit there might be a twisty turny thing that turns the volume of that beep down. It's still obnoxiously loud but it does help 😀

[@theenglishbiker8293]

That coupled with a sneaky bit of electrical tape makes it almost bearable. But still loud enough to be noticed when it needs to be

[@LA-fr7fx]

Thank you.

[@robertoverton9605]

Drawing pin through the holes you won't hear a single beep anymore

[@lawrenceedwards7344]

Great video mate

[@almostanengineer]

Congrats on the ‘London Edition’ unit 😂😂

[@MrFlash4203]

When I was a forklift driver we were only allowed to lift 8 high the size of a regular palates goods. We were told the reason was because in wet weather Especially the pallets could slide off and could cause injuries also when driving if you have to stop suddenly they could shift more and fall of the front. Plus it moves the centre of gravity etc. Loads of different reasons.

[@Jellan]

Trouble with that left turn beeper is if you modify it YOU are liable for any incidents, as you have modified safety features on the vehicle. Doesn’t matter if it’s not involved in the incident either. I’ll agree though it’s annoying. They should be able to turn the volume down for you at least.

[@domg5163]

I thought i felt the earth shudder on friday, must have been you jumping in that puddle. You can wrap a load of duct tape around that bleeper, does the trick for me and i think some of them also have a little volume roller on it but probably won't do much

I think the 104 lifts thing is ocd its satisfying I prefer to do this sometimes when im loading i line up the pallets and then load its just feels quicker than going backand forth idk

[@ronkeefe6780]

I used to drive a wagon and drag on the chep contract in the midlands, we ran 20 pallets high with 600 on the lorry. The chep employees used to load 60 at a time, 3 stacks of 20 on their FLT, they where good but some of the customers where terrible, used to stack them on 20s but would only load in 10s etc.I loved the job but not some of the customers

aa an ex coubterbalance forkie in a very very busy rdc goods in etc the chep truck gets loaded as and when it can but the forkie doesnt always know when the chep truck is coming in plus the reach trucks have to bring the pallets out of the warehouse etc then thhe yard forkie has to find time in their very busy day to load the chep whilst keeping the ramp clear of vans and 7.tt and class 2s etc plus because you arent in a flatbed the pallets have to be perfectly straight to fit flush etc you aint ald waffling tonight lol

Worked at the factory that made most of UK's chep pallets (we called them GKN back then)used to store in 40s and move around in 20s,can only see moving in 10s necessary where lots of pedestrians which should be segregated from flts anyway.

[@truckersteve61]

I've got a new truck, and got that warning system in, yes its annoying

[@michaelthomas3646]

yeah picking up a stack, then dropping them closer to the trailer, unless it was to seperate the stacks then it is just wasting time. shame you didn't get to see Martin, but yeah legal requirements are more important, not just the job.

A few months ago cheap were sending us broken pallet's when the company complained they said by such and such a regulation our forks where are 30cm to short basically they told us to kiss their ass

[@randyzimmerman826]

Little inside forklifts are narrow track and on outside pavement that is uneven I can see the problems with pallets stacked high. With a larger forklift with a proper backstop on the mast is less prone to wobbling side to side. Wrong tool for the job.

[@almostanengineer]

It’s the same at my place, maximum 10 pallets lifted at once, stacked max 20 high, I’m not sure if move them closer to the wagon though, that just seems odd, especially when he had all those mixed stacks to sort too 🙄
