Trailer Gets High Centered! Lifted By Rotator

In today's video Trent Jr and Mark take the rotator to assist a lady who attempted to turn around in the dark and failed to navigate around some concrete slabs, therefore she high centered the trailer on these slabs and got stuck. This requires us to lift the trailer away and winch her out

Q:What camera do you use?
A: I use the Go Pro Hero 7 Black Edition primarily. Often times you will see auxillary cameras in use. Those cameras include The Go Pro Hero 6, Hero, and DJI Mavic Pro Platinum
Q: How big Is your rotator?
A: It is a 50 ton Miller Industries Vulcan 950
Q: Does the carriage slide back like Ron Pratt's?
A: No, the carriage doesn't slide back due to strict weight laws in California. The sliding carriage will make the truck to heavy in CA
Q: Why do you only have 3 winches on the rotator?
A: Comes down to weight again as stated above
Q: How many trucks Does Plaza Towing have?
A: Currently more than 30
Q: Why must the driveshaft be removed to tow a vehicle?
A: When vehicles are not running the transmission is not receiving circulating lubricant. If the driveshaft is left installed, the transmission, which is not receiving lubricant, is still spinning. This allows it to get very hot which eventually will cause major damage to the transmission. Therefore, removing the driveshaft completely eliminates the transmission from spinning. Simply leaving it in neutral is not sufficient since the transmission still spins in neutral.

You have a good helper in Mark. He's always doing something, instead of standing with his hands in his pockets, or playing with his phone like some others I've seen.

[@kniteryder6274]

He is very polite and professional some tow drivers are real jerks

[@Mike-ik7uv]

How do you not see all those big ass boulders. Huge mound of dirt and all that other trash. Amazing what some of these drivers do.

[@billybobharrison8005]

I really love your videos the way you work safely and Tell what you are doing and never make the driver feel like a dumb and not take advantage of them

[@GMBiorn]

Excellent work Trent and Mark. It is more fun to watch you guys recover someone in the daylight; we get to see more detail and the customer smile at the finish. Thanks Trent.

[@plazatowing]

Absolutely! Thank you for watching!

[@robmair1696]

Always a pleasure to see professional people working in what ever their field. I would say that these guys are at the top of the craft of moving heavy weights in a fast and very safe manner.

[@greghurrell9694]

it amazes me that these driver get into these situations. as an old driver myself i was always taught that if there is a area where there it is vacant there must be a reason.

[@1siksilverado]

Nice meeting you brotha 👍🏼

[@arbiter1]

I remember in a video some time ago you said didn't have a rotator cause no real need for one. Now that you got one it makes jobs like this one so much easier on top of all jobs it opens up to take.

[@Leotheconstructionguy]

That’s pretty cool someone recognized you from the videos lol 😂

[@MrKK-tw1nh]

How in the actual...... when did that look like a good idea? Hope her company doesn’t watch this video 🤦🏻‍♂️.

[@487joe]

Lucky for the truck the slabs were missed. I drove construction for years with trailers and straight trucks and always got a laugh at road drivers when off the blacktop. On the other hand always had respect the way they handled their trucks on the blacktop. Great video as always

[@benniewilliams7770]

Daum as hell

[@marksmith1744]

Impressed how you and Mark handled the situation. I bet it must be frustrating here in that you had to deal with a fence, soft ground in the front of the truck and still managed to get the rig out of there. Good job!

[@Djm9393]

dude the recent uploads are awesome bro keep sending it!

[@georgegeorgepht]

It’s crazy how in this business, the new and more inexperienced you are the nicer and newer the truck u get. Vs the old Crusty mullion millionaire mile oo, roll around in old 90s trucks.

[@USN_Ret-]

True and the new ones have electronic logbooks, active GPS tracking and 65mph governors.

[@blthetube1]

I'm always puzzled by these "Hope and Prayer" drivers. They get into a spot, see everything around them and just keep going like some magical force will get them through it.

[@remigiocortes3554]

Great job guys, both of you makes a perfect team!! 👍👍

That's two in a row. Awesome jobs by you all!

[@brandonlherbin127]

I must add that a good rig-man not only is essential for the crane master but saves the customer money.

[@loftiefleet8104]

good bloody job old boy.

[@KB-gs8zi]

SirTrent/Mark !! Great recovery with NO more damage than what was already done !! Did your Mechanics fix the brake line & uncage the brake ?? Good lesson & video for ALL to take into consideration b/4 doing a move like this in the future !! IF the driver can't see where they are with surrounding objects ,,then do as the decal says at the bottom of the drivers mirror ""G.O.A.L. !!! ""Get Out And Look "" for those who DON'T know what the letters are for !! ""KEEP IT SAFE """ !!!!

Nice work! How many years of experience does Mark have? What were the trucks doing off road? Construction job? Produce load? Thanks

[@keithnichols7926]

I suppose out-of-state truckers from areas where the earth is solid may not realize that getting off the road puts them in loose dirt that's pretty deep. It appears to be more like talc than anything else.

[@ro93941]

Id like to see what the bill is for these rescues at the end plz...

[@OtoGodfrey]

That truck is doing 90mph on black ice on I-80 now trying to make up lost time.

Da-um lady. How'd you get in there? LOL

Jerry Plante 😏I see what you did there

[@thomasdesmond2248]

It was dark when she came in and if you noticed no light poles. She most likely couldn't see the obstructions. Be kind to others and try to have understanding. We all get caught in things we wished we hadn't. God bless

Greeting from Honduraa. Bro

She had that whole parking lot too turn around it probably cost her her job too what was she thinking omg really c'mon

[@ronaldotto7851]

Yes.

[@michaelh370]

DAUM! he stuck

[@clittle580]

I wonder if this lady locked her diffs. Looks like she’s dug in with both rear axles.

Bravo-Bravo-Bravo,nice job . What was that Lady doıng there? Greetıngs from Turkıye

[@Chris-wh2gy]

Name on the trailer says it all daum

[@ahavekost49]

So how much did that cost??

[@normangallant9879]

Did the left rear chain damaged the left backside of the trailer?

[@plazatowing]

Negative, I even pointed out the previous damage in the beginning of the video. Thank you for watching!

[@andrewdavidson7656]

She didn’t plan that very well and was nowhere close to making it.

[@jimbelcher8459]

What motor do you have in the Rotator what HP what's the heavyest thing you towed with the Rotator.

[@plazatowing]

Cummins ISX 605HP The rotator weighs in at 65,000 pounds. I have not had the pleasure to tow an oversize rig therefore the heaviest I have towed was 80,000 pounds putting us it at a total gross of 145,000. Those are always fun! Thank you for watching!

[@billyrsnellsr9512]

What was she thinking?

[@quantumss]

Why is the aprox. amount charged not mentioned? Some kind of a secret ?

[@plazatowing]

we just believe that information shouldn't be disclosed. Only way to find out is to get stuck lol. Hopefully you understand! Thank you for watching!

[@williamwallace9826]

Trent, why didn't you set up closer to the fence? That way your swing with the trailer in the air would have been more along the centerline of the rotator rather than having to constantly boom out as it swung. Also -- is that a decal of some kind from Texas on your windshield? What's that all about?

[@plazatowing]

Unfortunately the camera doesn’t show it well but there’s an elevated dirt platform there that would require close to 2 feet of cribbing to allow for the truck to become completely level. Could it be done? Absolutely but it would probably take longer. Hopefully that answers your question! Thank you for watching!

[@nathanbrodeur]

The trailer doesn't even have a license plate on it

[@DeanBarefoot]

I'm sorry, if that was my truck and she was driving for me, she would be looking for another job. I don't mean to be harsh but that was one of the dumbest moves I have ever seen a driver make that could have been prevented or avoided.

[@2sadcasp]

Looks like you got 30 acres of yard there to turn around. But no lets see how soft it is behind this waste pile...

[@Jyard]

10 more acres and I’ll turn this truck around😎.

[@EdStyer]

My thoughts EXACTLY! Well...it is a women driver! :)

[@davidcline6309]

when yall bought the rotator did yall ever thing about getting the rolling carriage to give more boom extension just wondering

[@plazatowing]

Unfortunately that option is to heavy for California. thank you for watching

[@mrdan544]

The state of California won't let anyone who has a rotater have a sliding carriage due to weight restrictions

[@davidcline6309]

@@plazatowing ah ok

[@stephensafraniii3396]

Tow bills can approach tens of thousands depending upon severity of the extraction.this one probably in the 3 to 5 hundred dollar range.

[@vertigo8715]

would be more than that. you don't pay for a million dollar truck getting paid peanuts

[@philipmichel215]

Ok so does the rotator have sensors that automatically level the truck, if not how do you do it?

[@plazatowing]

A simple bubble level is used. If you look you can see a green bubble level. An auto level option would be awesome! Thank you for watching and I Hope I answered your question!

[@philipmichel215]

@@plazatowing when I rented a man lift, the 4 outriggers would auto level the unit.

[@anthonyfuchs640]

I just don't get it, all that property and one gets in that kind of fix. The "R" on that stick that goes into the floor means reverse.

[@clittle580]

Most modern truck drivers aren’t truck drivers at all, they’re steering wheel holders. This means when they go through CDL mills they never actually learn to backup. The number of trucks you will see at TA, Loves, Flying J etc who either park along a curb (when it says “No Parking”) or only use pull through spots is appalling.

Well, just digging it out wasn't an option, it seems. Especially with the brake problem.

Did skateboard for 20 years, and had to deliver to many, many "offroad" sites. Never once got buried, and the frame on skateboards hangs down a lot closer to the ground than any dry van. This is just a rookie move.
