Scrap metal truck rollover = BIG MESS!

Scrap metal truck rollover = BIG MESS! On the bright side, these trash bins did not have actual trash lol. This was on its way to the recycle yard, and I'm not certain but I believe the load was copper and various metals. The job was literally a couple miles from me in the middle of 15th St and Washington Blvd, about a couple miles from Downtown LA.
Despite getting there fast, I wasn't able to start the upright until the company did the clean up first. To expedite, I got Hulk, my 50ton rotator, into position and formulated my game plan so the job would be done as fast and efficient as possible. While the crew worked to load the bins onto new trucks and clear the street, I started to layout my chain and rigging.
After the crew was done with the cleanup portion, I sprung into action and set up all 4 of my boom lines to do a lift and catch solo. Since the unit was empty, it was a pretty easy task for my truck. Once upright, I was able to move it a bit to make it super easy for Echo to back up to it to tow it out of the scene and back to the customer's yard.

[@rshutterbug47]

That's A BEAUTIFUL BLUE, REALLY REALLY BEAUTIFUL TRUCK !!!!!🙂

[@mikemmikem2758]

Like that you are always respectful of your staff with 'thank you' and 'please.' Those words pay big dividends. Another great video. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight.🎄

[@edwinschlee8374]

Great job Josh and Echo! Nice looking Pete that Echo is driving! Happy Holidays to all of Pepes crews and families

[@KB-gs8zi]

[@SumterWrecker]

Mr Josh Nice recovery uses all chains. Had to make sure I was on the correct channel. Thanks for sharing and stay safe

[@michaelsiehl6804]

Josh you and Echo did a good job recovering that truck

[@DrewMarold]

I've seen the blue truck in the background in your yard a few times and was wondering when it would make an appearance. Love the color.

[@crackstp]

Need your Pappi on video more, love his words of wisdom!

[@karlif]

Is that copper? Just leave it and the homeless will clean that site in 10 minutes flat.

[@PepesTowingService]

No joke 😂

[@annemariepienaar2007]

In South Africa even faster

[@KUT-N-GO]

Can't believe you give them 10 mins. I'd give them 5 hahaha

[@user-zt9bg3pr4m]

Nice Job Echo and Josh. Again a very professional representation for Pepe’s Towing. That is a beautiful blue Peterbuilt Tow Rig.

[@scottcass4243]

Video of the under lift was on point. Never seen this from this point of view.

[@wesleypulkka7447]

Pepe, yet another no drama but plenty of skill back flip! You guys really know what you are doing! Fun to watch!

[@scottlambert2609]

I love that blue Pete! I would be so proud to run that truck

[@JasonBristow2003]

Nice work Josh and Echo! It's crazy how bad of shape the metal truck's tires were in, bald, chipped up, full of nails, missing tread. Happy Holidays to the Pepes crew!

[@VineV-Dutch]

Truck 95: those flashing light bars at the side: no! Keep it traditional, chicken lights and chrome.

[@briananderson8733]

Great job with teamwork. Happy Holidays to all!

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Josh and Echo great job! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@UCanCallMeMrHeavyDuty]

That's smart thinking by the customer having their crew and equipment out there for clean up that way they don't have to pay extra for clean up they just pay for the recovery and tow.

[@lynnmeese55]

Another easy job for Pepe's! Trucks look great! Happy Holidays to you and all your crew and families ❤🎉

[@mfc4591]

Nice truck that Echo uses. That truck you righted has some snakebelly tyres ! Have a great week.

[@autumn7ful]

[@kevinmhardie842]

Hello this brings back memories of when I used to drive from 1977 to 2004 I retired can’t stand the the bad drivers that don’t care ????? I drove in Atlanta GA

[@nelsonmattoon150]

Another great recovery

[@Rimrock300]

Great to follow this channel, my favorite towing channel) For the big part other channels feature like 1 big wreacker/rotator, while Pepe's often got 2+ big wreackers in operaton at a scene working together which is even more interesting and makes the channel more unique. Thanks for taking the time filming and sharing,

[@Doc_Dolan]

Very good video! Really love the great color on 95!

[@harryscott9533]

Another awesome performance 🤓🙋‍♂️👍

[@colinl9018]

[@eddieherrera9504]

Bro we gotta get a tour of 95 that thing is beautiful

[@halmyster95]

Loved it! Watching from SW Louisiana! Question: why did you not use a tag line to prevent extra swinging? That light pole looked way too close! 👀😱

[@lawnfreak3543]

Just one of those bins of copper will pay the bill 😂😂😂😂

[@RambozoClown]

So where are the Bunnymen? Nice old skool chain job.

[@user-fz4fm4rv6t]

Buen trabajo, aparatoso accidente , 👍🖐️💪🇪🇦

[@rickvandusen9271]

18:11 “My dad’s gonna be proud of this one”. ROFL!

[@imTechnikz]

These damn drivers man! 🤦🏼‍♂️ As a FedEx driver in the area it caused a lot of traffic in the area.

[@VineV-Dutch]

What causes people to watch, especially at night, are the flashing lights. Whelan lights actually has special night mode on their lights for law enforcement and fire trucks. In stone counties in Europe: once on scene and within the save working area, flashing lighting must be turned off. Only blinkers are allowed. This is to speed up traffic and prevent "What's going on" tourists, and a big crowd on scene for police to handle.

[@stuartgeem3075]

Hi Josh another great video but I noticed your front lift line was twisted and I know you don’t usually let that happen but a great video nonetheless keep safe and keep the videos coming

[@davidbeeston2481]

Another great video Josh; I see that you had a twist in one main cable ?

[@kapekodbob]

Great job. You picked it from the bed which was only held down with the trucks hydraulics. Why did you not chain the bed to the frame ? Also noted would it have been easir to disc. the driveshaft while it was on it's side ?

[@abdullhaalmamari7238]

تحيه لكم يا رجال انتم ابطال

close call, but good flip brother

Hi how are you ?I Watch your videos from Honduras Loveit!

[@maxmacdonald7174]

Wow no synthetic on this job. Nice work

[@adamt4742]

the word "mess" or even "big mess" just doesn't seem strong enough for this one 😯

[@danpayan9468]

Permanently re tired lol

[@fredkarnak483]

Rolled truck bald tyres all round no wonder it rolled over !!!!

[@jonahkasiborski1472]

Good job to UNIT 44 / HULK & UNIT 95! Do you only use 3 heavy trucks when it comes to a semi?

[@andyye2571]

Do you guys prepare any shoes and gloves for the ground that have wet chemicals or unload toxic powders that can burn the feet and hands?

[@scanmead]

That new truck is so pretty, it's kind of a shame to get it dirty. 😕

[@ocalaguy32195]

Ocala Florida

[@bodeans59]

Question, once you lift the wrecked truck under the front axle, is it chained down before you tow it away?

[@hughgautier3894]

Did you leave that short chain underneath the frame that was used for your catch?

[@PepesTowingService]

Negative. Part of de-rigging is putting everything away lol. Our trucks are so organized it’s easy to see if something is missing

[@garylatture8948]

I bet that was a heavy load!

[@TruckerMike88]

Shaken up that man is fired

[@gwilewiczjr]

I always wondered how much a job like this would be. Just the flip of the truck itself then the tow out.. $4-6k?

[@tomjohnson7508]

Do you chain the hookup to the front axle?

[@autumn7ful]

I was watching some of your older videos and you guys were wearing safety gear like hard hats, your yellow vest how come you don’t do that anymore?

[@douglasburford8452]

Did you tow this truck with the drive shaft connected? I notice you didn't take the opportunity to remove the shaft while the truck was on it's side.

[@eddiegomez5555]

Until # 95 is beautiful how many tons

[@tinwizard6447]

Just asking- why didn't you drop the driveline when it was on its side? or was it a "stick" trans?

[@Lineman99]

Whats the 44 for on your vest?

[@carlu-dovica]

Sounds like Shredder is old school and prefers using chains instead of synthetic straps. 🙂

[@PepesTowingService]

Old school cool 😎

[@carlu-dovica]

@@PepesTowingService Right On! That's all expensive equipment and fully tested. Might as well use it where it works best.

[@melissahatfield4773]

Wow there is no tread on those tires

[@steveblake8766]

399 thumbs up

[@jimmyssnowremoval1075]

I always find it fascinating how people can’t believe and say “oh how hard is it to turn a truck over? Shouldn’t take hours to do that!” I always try to tell people truck, cars, trains are meant to be in their tires. And no two tow jobs are the same. And that just because the accident is gone doesn’t mean that the jobs over cause you saw the accident scene and the next day a piece of glass from the window went though your tire and you got a flat tire, it be good for the tow company cause I’d be work but you’d be complaining about the tow bill, the inconvenience of not getting to your destination, having to buy a tire and so on. So I tell them to be patient and just watch a video on KZbin. And always to slow down and move over for the same reason. As much as you don’t want to or can’t imagine your self being on the side of the road working. But if you’re on the side of the road imagine yourself you’d be furious that vehicles are slowing down or moving over but yet you aren’t doing your self.
