Lifting and transporting a destroyed trailer

What a unique job this was. The 53' trailer was cut off on one end, with the larger part folded in on itself. The front part was almost a perfect cube of walls with the roof missing. All in all, this was no match for my 50ton rotator, Hulk, to be lifted and set onto the Landoll for transport.
The job itself was not as difficult as my other heavy rollovers go, but I had a lot of fun on it. A little bit of out of the box thinking and we were on the road in no time to the tow destination.

Whoever brought that to their yard did quite a fold job on it. Nice work loading up all the pieces.

How you rigged together all that scrap @35:35 and even slid the tire onto the end reminded me of Hannibal from the A-Team "...gotta love it when a plan comes together!"

[@timteevin4517]

Interesting load of scrap. Good job, once again.

I'm still amazed by the clear blue skies I see in the background. When I was growing up there in the 70's the skies were always grey and choked with smog. At times visibility was only about half a mile. Good job by the Pepe's crew.

Good morning from Southeast South Dakota. More fun in the sun... As always be safe.

[@eegarim]

Hearing that train horn in the background makes me wonder if the trailer got stuck on the train tracks, or the driver thought they could beat the train.🤔

[@harveystephens6115]

Da plane, Da plane! Scrap lift looks like airplane. Nice job

[@Ricochet845]

I saw the video was 42 mins in length and my first thought was 'Oh awesome Josh said "this will be easy" ' but you did not. Still an awesome video, shows how us towing & recovery people think outside the box when lift points are needed. Awesome video, now I can't wait for the mini-excavator thing you got coming out next week.

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Another great video Josh and Joe . Thanks for sharing. Kevin

I never thought of sun screen being a requirement of a tow truck but in California it does make sense. 🌞🌞🌞

[@johnmeeks9618]

I am surprised the customer didn’t remove the good tires and wheels on the rear right before you guys came to get the trailer.

[@donw3912]

what a mess...great coordination of the remains on the trailer...I too would love to know the backstory on the trailers demise. Another expertly performed job done by Pepe's :-)

[@PepesTowingService]

My guess is a rollover or the trailer got hit hard by another truck.

[@chewbaca1979]

@@PepesTowingService Might've been a train too, that's one hell of a clean break between the two halves of the trailer.

Like #369 Thanks for the video!

[@PepesTowingService]

Thanks for watching!

[@traceypup1810]

If I had to guess what happened, based on the trailer being in their yard and the right side axles being broken towards the rear, but the front of the trailer being seemingly ripped off, my guess is that someone was making a right hand turn in or out of the yard and caught the gate or a parked car. It looks like the slots cut on the front part may have been used by a large forklift to lift it. Had to be a fairly hard hit to rip the trailer apart like that, but since the front doesn’t seem to have any damage to the sides or top, a rollover is probably not what happened.

[@allenmason1098]

I like how he calls it the front where the doors are (aka the back), and the back where you hook up the air lines (aka the nose or front). Just like people confuse left side and right side of a vehicle In the U.S.A you drive on the left side.

Nope this was a flat rate for the job. It sucked, but being reasonable on pricing and labor makes the customers keep calling you.
