Semi ROLLOVER!!! NRC Rotator and Wrecker Recovery!!!

[@douglasneidert9873]

Surprised the trailer survived flipping it back on its wheels with as bad as the back was compromised. Good recovery!

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thank you! Yeah, it was definitely a little sketchy haha.

Best part of the video is the Female supervisor in the pink shirt, Green gloves and pony tail cap

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

She is a relative of ours that we call out for extra help when we need to do offloads, or help clean up the scene! Thanks for watching!

[@retro_grade]

Another great and entertaining video - this channel is quite the hidden gem at the moment, with its quality surpassing those who have many more subsribers. Keep up the good work!

just found your channel this afternoon watched my first video im a old retired wrecker driver not heavy hauler have a old holmes twin boom 500 pto wrecker left don't tow for hire anymore just projects the old truck only has 50,000 original miles works great. back to your video very good i watch a lot of towing on you tube looks like i will be watching even more keep up the good work and i tried making some content just to much work at my age so i do know how much work and effort goes into each video again thanks

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thanks for the comment and for watching! It is definitely challenging to get the footage without bottlenecking the recovery, and then putting it all together in a way that's not boringly long. We're still learning and trying to make the videos better each time, so glad you are enjoying the channel!

​@WilcoxGarageRecovery well i have to say I do alot of youtube Rotator and Heavies but yeah I will be watching more of you for sure. Like you product and plus my lastname so lol. Your 50 ton Tator is an NRC?. I recognize those blue container/rim slings from Bailey's. Believe it or not the 1 person i watch and am a member of is another tow company and I belive the ONLY company that has a everyday tow kit named specifically after them (keeping name out for a reason not sure if im allowed to mention another company or not so lol.

[@sillarsscott7694]

Just wanted you to know that I enjoy your videos from Victoria Bc Canada I especially like that they aren't too long

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thank you! We try to keep them around 20-30 minutes maximum, and touch the main points of the recovery.

[@mchebornek]

That was fun, let's do it again. Thanks for sharing,,

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thank you! We're ready for another big recovery anytime! They're always a good challenge and we love it when we can put all our tools to good use 😎

@@WilcoxGarageRecovery I remember many years in the towing industry-now retired--usually bad wrecks came in three'.

Your channel came up on my feed to try gosh the videos are great quality skills and action so subscribed and catching up

Text book, good job

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thank you, and thanks for viewing!

[@bladewiper]

Just found your channel, looks interesting. I like the 20 - 30 minute length videos. The 1 hr ones some people post are too long for me.

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thank you! Agreed, which is why we try to make them the shorter length.

[@johnsmart3587]

Did not hit the bell, missed a lot. Got to catch up. Thanks.

McKays Ron Pratt all of you are the best

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Thank you!

[@jackstockley4501]

What did you have to do to unlock the 5th. wheel knowing that you normally have to back into it to get it to release you didn't have that option! Good job always looking forward to the next one!

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Usually we can use the winch to pull the truck one way or another and manipulate it to do what we want. Sometimes it's easy, but sometimes it can be a struggle. This one wasn't too terrible. Glad you are enjoying the videos! 👍🏻

[@Dabaerr76]

Sweet hope the driver was ok.

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

The driver was fine!

Hey bro, I ama fan of heavy recovery trucks. Don’t know anything about it, but it’s part of the deal. Perhaps you could use a thinner font so we can read it before you fade it out 👍🙏

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Noted. Will try to remember that for the next one! 👍🏻

[@dps67]

Be very very quiet...the freightliner is sleeping...😉😉

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Seems theres a lot of tired Freightliners and Volvos out there in the world 😂

[@dps67]

@@WilcoxGarageRecovery true enough! But it pays the bills. 😉

[@Thisandthatdude]

Why does anyone ever unhook the truck from the trailer? Flip it as one and it’s a ready to be towed unit.

[@WilcoxGarageRecovery]

Would totally agree with you, in certain situations...This case, the way the trailer was sitting in the ditch and how badly it was damaged would have only complicated the recovery further. We opted to disconnect and winch the trailer into the roadway so that we could drive our skid steer directly in to the trailer to recover the cargo. If not, the time it would have taken to empty the trailer as it sat would have been really inefficient. We just did another rollover a few weeks back that was a load of FoMoCo vehicle batteries rolled in behind a utility pole. In that case is was easier to unload directly out the back because it was relatively flat terrain, then winch the tractor trailer unit back and upright as one unit.
