Hey buddy why don't instead of trying to clean up a long strip of it and everything just piled up in a bunch of little piles and everything that way you can pick it all up at one time maybe about five or six piles and everything takes too long to push it all the way in one big pile we learned that in the roofing we had to teach the people how to do in roofing but y'all have a good day looks like a good video too y'all have a blessed weekend coming up. 👍💪🤟🌟🇺🇸

Yeah I’m just a driver, but thanks. Soon I’ll be running our New 2022 Kenworth. Thankfully that was a porcelain doll, not a real dress. The gore and stuff doesn’t really bother me. I’d say picking up someone’s life collection of belongings off the side of the road messes with me more than anything. I know what you mean tho. That’s why I like running the flatbed. I generally get to be the one that brings the someone’s bad day to and end and get them off the side of the road.

I know it's part of the job as tow truck. But it still stinks not only u got to pick up wreck vehicles, that u also have to sweep up the mess.. u figure the police wants to open street up asap that they would have road maintenance people come out to do the sweeping and pick up trash so the tow truck person can pickup vehicle and leave it would be faster for all people

Waiting for the city to show up would take forever. Having us do the work is definitely the best way to open the road. We’re generally there within minutes of the accident happening, and gone shortly there after.
