How Heavy Haul Trailers are Made! BTW, I Ordered One!

[@wallysworld5518]

Wow, he gave you a complete run down of the entire operation. He represents the company very well!

[@ryanmcdaniel5610]

I thought so too!

[@darrellsmith4780]

! P

[@bitrage.]

I like seeing there are ppl that understand the entire process and importance of them all, that way you can have communication and problem solving as a whole.

[@realemonful]

@@bitrage. That looks like a maw and paw shop and I bet non of those workers get paid a lot either. I mean, how often do you see well paid workers working without any safety equipment whatsoever? Not that I think all that safety is necessary but when you look, they overpaid workers are all protected at company expense

[@bitrage.]

@realemonful lol, when certain management wasn't around I wore 50% if any of the safety equipment myself..🤣 safety squints good enough

[@MotoMatt]

Mad props to the sales guy. I love when you got a guy who flys a desk but knows every aspect of the work. Really shows passion.

[@skraminc]

Proper employee for a real business. Becoming rare.

[@campaul8366]

Ponytail giving the rundown is the kind of employee that keeps a company in business. Very very well spoken and knowledgeable on the end to end process.

[@jimmillican2339]

You ok Jo 😊😮 hi

[@dancearoundtheworld5360]

gotta love a starting mane and has the time to show the progress of making these sick trailerz

[@chaddevine565]

It aint rocket science...

[@ericgriffin397]

That salesman is a great one!! I hope he gets a raise and a promotion!! Cool and informative video!! Thank you Bruce!

[@MIDTOWNE1]

Now, this is AMMMERRRICA !!!!! Boys and girls, this is how we got it done before and we will get it done again. By the sweat of our brow and making quality goods.

[@Saskatchewan_IH_Farmer]

Those “Ag” trailers for us here in Canada are used mostly for custom combining crews. They haul dual wheeled combines or 300HP+ tractors/Quadtracs/4tracs with grain cart all over the wheat belt from Texas right up to central Saskatchewan/Alberta. Most custom crews usually run a minimum of 3 combines, plus tractor and grain cart, plus Draper headers, plus pick up headers if they get into canola, which is something that’s mostly grown up here as we don’t grow a lot of corn on the prairies. Canola, lentils, canary seed pay way better plus the yields are so much better.

[@banffdigger]

We can run 10' wide trailers in western canada with just the over width permit 24/7 and it really sucks loading a feller buncher on a 8.5' trailer with outriggers and breaking said outriggers off.

[@brenteichel7661]

Ten wide is the way to go for hauling tracked machines

[@evomink]

Dude with the ponytail is terrific. He was born to be in the trailer game.

[@jeff7764]

Trailer game lol

[@nicholassnyder552]

It's the ponytail that gives him the trailer game abilities

[@stevehudson7429]

Sounds like some old guys mad because they don't have enough hair to tie back

[@TheSuprahuman]

The guy was a fountain of knowledge. Great to see people who take pride in their work and know all the aspects of the manufacture procedure . A+ for Globe.

[@michaelgreen4838]

That's so unusual to see someone that knows something and takes pride in what they do !

[@AJ-sh8uv]

Not a trucker, but a mechanic. Seeing the amount of labor going into those makes me wonder just how long it takes to make these. Truly impressive. Jason is awesome. The man knows everything there is to know about those trailers. He has more passion and knowledge than some of the guys who represent in my company.

[@mikeford963]

Depending on the trailer and how many guys are on it, a couple weeks.

[@DrewMarold]

I never realized they would all be custom-made. It's an impressive operation and seems like a very down-to-earth company.

[@TruckerBill250]

I was hoping to run into to you at Globe..I bring a majority of their steel to them, and just delivered there just a couple of hours before you got there. Really good guys there, they really do know their stuff, I have been delivering there for going on 7 years now...I ordered my hat and shirt a few days ago from your website and received it yesterday, nice quality thanx Bruce!!

[@amsoiladam]

Thanks for taking us on this tour Bruce, it’s really amazing seeing all of the work that goes in the building these.

[@BeanDip2288]

Made in the good ole USA! That’s best part about all of this, see so many different nationalities working ass off doing same thing. Love it, you can tell they put all of time, and effort and high quality product!

[@mjboy8790]

That guy was bad ass with the knowledge and did a hell of a job showing you around.

[@nate4036]

Globe not only make tough and functional trailers, but they’re beautiful. Hatermade 379’s trailer really made me start looking at these. Work em all week, wash em, put em in a truck show right after

[@Solo-vm8pd]

These trailers look great & extra heavy duty. These guys have their stuff well put together. The vibe & interactions amongst the team makes for a great work environment & you can tell they take pride in their craft, these guys are making a work of art from a trailer

[@markgoddard3115]

Wow!! That place always wanted to know how they were built thanks Bruce great video and very informative 👍

[@CarlosRodriguez-kb9jc]

Awesome video, thanks to Globe Trailers for participating.

[@kymw7833]

Bruce this is a fantastic video ,this company is what I always think America is small business total customer focus and a quality product,that guy,s knowledge of his product is a man proud of his job.And you Bruce could make this type of video on many different small companies ,maybe a new business for you!!!!! Give it some thought mate it's a winner again one of the best video,s you have done well done Kym Adelaide

[@99iwaena]

Back in 2008 the municipality that I was employed with, we received our first Globe 50-ton detachable gooseneck low-boy trailer that’s almost exactly like the grey trailer featured in the video. An independent heavy equipment contractor submitted a bid and won the bid. I’ve been retired since 2011, and currently it’s still in use on a daily operation. The only minor problems occurred was the auxiliary motor that powers the gooseneck other than that it’s a solidly built low-boy trailer. 💯👍🤙🏽

[@wesleytruax2469]

Seems like quality heavy duty trailers and the guy giving the tour definitely knows his business I don't think you need to ask anyone else what you need other than him.

[@ldtenenoff]

MADE AND STAYED IN THE U.S.A. JASON IS THE MAN CONGRATES JASON ON UR PRODUCT KNOWLEGE AS WELL AS STATE LAWS AND TRAILER SPECS A REAL ASSET TO GLOBE TRAILERS AND THE HAULING INDUSTRY AS A HOLE!!!!!! THATS WAT A MAN WHO TAKES PRIDE IN HIS CRAFT SOUNDS LIKE BRAVO MAN BRAVO

[@godbluffvdgg]

Made in USA...Sweet trailer! So great to see these young people continuing a long lost art...Very sharp young people and a well run shop...Good health, happiness and success to you all!

[@johnvanriper3363]

Man that Rep is really knowledgeable I don’t think I’ve ever seen one better. Good job Thanks

[@whf7143]

Jason is incredible! That man knows everything about his craft without any doubt. Super to see such incredible knowledge and proud of their Made in America craftsmanship!

[@chrisrussell8903]

What a tour guide that fella is! Great operation there. You can feel good about buying from them.

[@Dotson869]

Apatong is definitely worth the extra money by far, have a 50 ton Fontaine with a apatong deck and it’s 20 years old. Replaced 3 boards in those 20 years.

[@mikeford963]

I worked for Peerless trailers in Canada, I have a chunk of that wood that I intend to use for knife scales one day!!

[@Mr.XYZ6775]

I really enjoyed the tour of Globe Trailers. I am an engineering contractor now retired, so back in 1995 - 2002 I worked at P&H mining now It's Komatsu in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Back then I worked on the hydraulic excavator dippers, aka bucket, these dippers used plates 1.50 to 3.00 inch thick and the welding symbols, it's like trying to learn the Arabic language. The excavator frames were 10 times the size of Globe Trailers. I and several other designers and drafter were hired to complete the redesign of the 9020-dragline machine that went to Australia. It was quite a working and learning experience.

[@heavyhaulage1]

I don’t comment to often Bruce, but I really enjoyed this one. Jason did Globe (and himself) proud 👏🏻

[@rickcales38]

Jason gave a great tour and really showed his passion for the company. I couldn’t help but wonder if he was prior Air Force. His belt looks just like a dress blues belt for the AF. Great guy, making great trailers.

[@Firebird400]

I used to work in a couple trailer shop’s when I was a apprentice welder. We were only allowed 1 stop/start on the outside rail . Long way to go without stopping the weld. That’s quite the outfit actually, looks good all in house to .

[@collinwalker]

This man at globe is the GOAT in the trailer game. Was fun to watch.

[@goleafsgo8496]

Really cool tour literally a "One Stop Shop" in the way they can basically build whatever the customer desires. I don't think I heard the tour guide say no to any question you asked. Loved the white with red accents but sadly I would fear what it would look like once put into action? Thanks for taking us along was a little surprised at the lack of automation in the actual build process? It seemed like everything involved the employee named "manwell".

[@joshfaught813]

Awesome video !!! That guy did a heck of a job representing Globe Trailers

[@LukeA_55]

Dang Jason knows really his stuff. It's rare to find a salesman that knows what he's talking about

[@bertrutledge4546]

Very nice tour . They can make whatever you want and it will be functional. Thanks to Globe Trailer for the informative tour.

[@realkilju]

Very indepht tour of the whole place, really liked how well he explained everything about the trailers

[@joshuabuxton7502]

Hey Bruce, the real question how big and heavy do you want to haul??? I'm a heavy haul driver that's done 2-2-2, 2-3-2 , 3-3-3 , 3-4-3, 4-3-4.. Ya see when it comes to heavy haul Go big or go home!! Which means not the load on the trailer, but instead the equipment you will need to haul that load.. for the little bit of equipment you might think about wanting to haul, I would honestly recommend a 30ft belly, 3 axle, disc brakes, outriggers, flip neck, LED lights and strobes on 3 sides, center storage area for dunnage, extra chains and binders, etc,.. A center lift and rear lift axle , why you ask 1) you're in Florida 2) having 2 axles that can lift will save you money in fuel and maintenance 3) it gives you options for weight distribution I can personally tell you that Globe Trailers are heavy but again they're built very well.. And surprisingly they actually ride somewhat smooth.. Good luck with your new trailer

[@DRH20]

I’m going to buy a trailer from them just based on this video. What a knowledgeable guy! Great video Bruce, 180° from the Kenworth wrecking videos.

[@MrMopar413]

WOW that brought back memories when I used to work for Atlas Copco Wagner Mining Equipment Co. manufacturing Plant in Portland, Oregon. I could hit the floor running in that shop. Nothing like working in the blaster and the grind shed, working the burning tables and final assembly.

[@ChoppazOG]

seem to be well built trailers and that salesman needs a raise very informative!

[@urcousinfromboston9052]

Awesome tour by Jason, holy crap!! You got the red carpet treatment Bruce!!

[@ManuelFlores-uq3bh]

This makes me love my Trailer tech job even more which feels more than just a job because there’s more to trailer than meets the eye

[@righttobloodydissent]

This is such an interesting video, seeing the inner workings of this company. I hope they get some customer's from your video Bruce and good on you for making a video about working class Americans. edit: A true blue collar lad.

[@frdboy86]

Little late to the party but just wanted to say, I'm from Michigan and pull the 8-axle van trailers. It was a little crazy to me when I first saw them but I always thought it was a normal thing everywhere until I came across a post on FB talking about how surprised they were to see something like that on the road and then comment after comment from others stating the same thing. Thats when I figured out it was a Michigan only thing and thought it was pretty damn cool. Also, Glad to see someone take pride in what they do and are happy to show it off by giving you a tour of the facility. Awesome video!

[@gerryspang5917]

Awesome factory tour, seems like well built trailers, can’t wait to see what you order. Wishing you and your a Merry Christmas and Blessings in the New Year.

[@gtbrown4840]

Hell of a set up nice trailors thanks for the tour

[@leviguwap3654]

Hats off to these guys @ globe trailers

[@camdenpearson6934]

Great salesman and great show quality product. Hope he gets a good Christmas bonus

[@G.i.modeMonsta]

They build some bad ass trailers. That’s for sure! The stretching is a Cool feature, the video was awesome so much useful information being able to walk-through the entire process helps the customer make and easy decisions. I would actually feel good about paying and feeling secure about it. Everything in house handmade good old-fashioned hard work craftsmanship keep doing what you’re doing!!!

[@flir67man84]

That guy did great plant tour. Pakistani truck has competition.. nice to see American truck factory still here ..

[@chance6298]

That dude knows his shit, and knows it front to back side to side in every option configuration possible. Would be a worthwhile experience to purchase a trailer from that company.

[@johncast9565]

That shop is clean...very clean.

[@davidbishop4015]

What a massive operation. If they can't build it for you, nobody can. Good luck with your build. Looking forward to seeing it when it's done. Stay safe.

[@tristanoliva]

I absolutely love that they powder coat vs conventional paint!

[@Nathang2233]

Most trailer companies powdercoat nowadays

[@alxgu198]

Surprisingly interesting video Bruce 👍 nice one. Jason knows his job, very knowledgeable.

[@localcrew]

Very impressive. Love the attention to detail.

[@allbrass0019]

Super knowledgeable sales guy and the fact that the sales guy fist bumps the production guys shows me that is a down to earth company. Really cool to see.

[@PTRRanger951]

That gray trailer was gorgeous. That is an awesome color!!

[@MichaelWilliams-mw7xn]

I love Globe trailers. If you have a 3axle truck. Definitely get 51 ton 2axle with the 3axle hydraulic flip. If you get 4axle truck then you get 55 ton 3axle with 4th flip. I run 3axle truck with 3axle double drop.

[@graemewoodruff9988]

Great tour thanks for sharing. They’re open with their designs and builds, especially with you filming.

[@bmrivest]

Great inside look at Globe Trailers! Thanks for the video, Bruce!

[@michaelnewbury1279]

That's a damn good salesman. I would love to have seen there 3+1 being put together . That's a cool work of art . Great video.

[@chadmutchler5062]

That’s a Globe!! Love em.

[@chadmutchler5062]

I had a 55ton 4 axle. Hyd neck and 4th flip. Expanded steel down the center for storage. Lots of extras. Globe trailers rock.

[@Lifting_mechanic]

as a Marine Corps Veteran i can confirm the government loves the hell out of flat bed trailers, when i was in we would load our hmmwv´s and trucks on lowboys and flat bed trailers, loved loading them hated unloading lol

[@keithhill9138]

Unbelievable trailer Com. I’m sure these trailers are as expensive if not more than the tractor that pulls them. Great video Bruce!!!

[@charlesroer972]

Nice rig , I’ll bet trailer has hearty price tag . It works if trailer is busy ,a lot of heavy haulin !

[@bobnelson1428]

Bruce in Canada the standard width for any type of trailer is 102” (8ft. 6”) with a annual permit you can pull a 10 ft. Wide trailer for farm and construction equipment. Good luck with your trailer build. From Newfoundland 🇨🇦

[@HighMenDestroyr]

That’s crazy, I run the same press brake but only a 80ton. Awesome video

[@bigjmma6797]

You can tell those are some really well built trailers.

[@MikeyM1422]

WoW! Never thought about heavy hauling… Those are some beautiful trailers

[@6EARJAMER]

that red & white trailer looks awesome!

[@rileyshane78]

I work with truck drivers that use those trailers all the time. They are actually super aggravating when they will not slide back together. We have to use a crane to pick up weight most of the time. Totally only nice and easy while it’s new

[@SuperchargedSS1]

That's very impressive. Great tour.

[@jefferybonem7336]

Back in the 1970s I worked for Ameron who manufactured concrete pipe fir water and water applications. We designed a single beam light Aluminum Trailer. During testing it buckled under the weight of the doing to being to light weight. Ameron in 1979 s had the largest private fleet of flat bed trailers in California. We had a fleet of a 12 Cozad low bed heaven haul rigs. Fun times managing the fleet.

[@charlieboy501]

Nice tour

[@t_crom]

loved the trailers and operation they run....looks like quality products but get the 55ton stretch with the hydraulic flip rear axel

[@toddclark332]

Thanks for the ride along there buddy you and your family have a beautiful Christmas 👍♥️💙🇱🇷

[@chrisryanst]

Really entertaining and informative that guy really knows how to build trailers

[@akramshuageyv828]

I have globe for 5 years and I love it

[@jim-zx7gz]

Jason did an excellent job representing Globe trailers. Very impressed

[@RCTBandit]

That guy is great, showed and explained everything, we run a 55 ton Talbert, three axle rear with lift third and manual dump, we only dump air on the 70k+ pound machines, do their necks have multiple height adjustment? We can set our neck height at 6 different levels which raises the whole trailer height without Messing with leveling valve(import for heavier stuff

[@idunwantmynamehere]

I want to be as knowledgeable at my place of work as this guy. There’s some things I don’t have answers for, this guy knows their product to the weld.

[@jeff7764]

He’s probably worked every position there. I’m kinda of the same way at my job, because of experience and working every position there over the last 20 yrs.

[@mitchmills8967]

That outfit looks top notch super high end stuff go a little higher than you think you need without breaking the bank or needing big permits.

[@peteturgeon1509]

I could watch stuff like this all day! Great video!

[@moto3463]

That is a super clean trailer love the paint on it nice stuff.

[@liljammerjakesmith1296]

Damn that purple one is the same color as our truck Hawaiian orchid beautiful color there

[@wesleyashby3100]

That is the color Hawaiian orchid

[@dellboy1419]

That was a fabulous tour by an excellent company man.

[@ernestbrothers1298]

Well Bruce, Globe makes quality product. Nice now they looking for bit of weight savings. What are you looking to move? Bigger tractors? As in hight weight? 26' ft well was standard on 48' rgn 2axle You add 5 ' for 3rd axle you gain weight you can haul if you can keep it to rear. Not lot of hydraulic rgn have upper deck over fithwheel. Talk to your buddies, talk to salesman. If you stick with hydraulic neck ask about padded neck support so you not messing you paint job. Yes in Canada as in some western states we have wider trailers because we can get annual permit to move them. If load isn't over trailers width no more permits needed. Also makes it easier to load at times. Good luck. Merry Christmas to you, family and crew

[@SuperMegaCliff]

Globe trailers you have a new fan 👍

[@450R]

Awesome tour guy def knows his stuff hard to come by this day in age..

[@cesarlugo3913]

Great tour! Thx for sharing.

[@jimbo5056]

Excellent tour and trailer facility. Hope the price is reasonable knowing exactly what kind of quality you're getting. Thanks for sharing Jason

[@josssd3677]

Great trailers, and very good quality, I am impressed with the finish,, from a KIWI,,

[@arieruiten23]

Bigg heavy trailer With lift Axels and shift expands its cool you need that Bruce very cool

[@simpledj509chromo7]

Pretty cool stuff. I've never seen an extension trailer going down the road like that. I've never seen a Globe trailer either, but as someone who is fabrication minded I wouldn't have a problem investing in a Globe trailer if I was in need of a lowboy. They look to be very well designed and they've corrected a some issues I've seen on a couple trailers that were common problems with the deck, side rails, and cross members. You can't prevent all the damage from years of dumbasses severely overloading 35 ton tandem axle trailers. But you can build a solid freaking trailer that will stand up to the abuse it is rated for. Even if it only has to go a few miles down the road, loading a trailer 20 tons over it's rated capacity is hell on the unit and I don't recommend trying it.

[@claterpillar1]

I'd give Landoll a look. Been using there lowboys for 22 years now. I really want a newer one. They offer hot dip galvanized metal protection now.

[@clydelevey2737]

Thanks Bruce I really enjoy seeing the whole process of making the trailers great video

[@glen511]

Excellent video. I truly enjoyed it. Very informative and great detail.
