How to haul a #TMC Oversize Load 🚩🚛🚩
WOW DON'T BE DUMB AND LAISY NEVER MIND YOU RUN FLAT BED YOU CAN BACK UP SORRY
I really really really don't like hauling rolled roofing. I will usually throw a 2" around each pallet. But that's just me.
I wouldn't use straps. You did it right, my guy. The guy using straps was probably wearing sandals 👡 😂😂😂
How many coil racks and beveled dunnage do you carry? In case you get coils. I know these aren’t beveled
Professional Driver 🚚🇺🇲
That's why they let you do adverse if you haven't use it yet. You good
Waste of time. 140 will not get a citation.
Stay safe sir!
LIVE
As a diesel mechanic wanting to be a tmc truck driver and working on his CDL, they won’t allow you to try and fix your truck as per company policy to get back on the road?
Someone mentioned to me that the company may authorize you to do that if you're a certified diesel mechanic that they've approved and authorized the repair. I would definitely check with HR and the road repair department for verification on that to be certain.
@@EruditeTrucker thank you so much for the information sir! Keep doing a great job and stay warm! Hope to be working beside you at tmc!
Im about to buy 3k in flatbed equipment, i would cry😂
Great video. Got a sub from me for it, appreciate you bods!
I appreciate the sub. Thanks for watching! 🧔🏿👍🏿
I have been to it's sister in Kenley ,NC. Whites in Raphine, VA is nice too. But i always seem to pass this one somehow.🤷🏾
Good job
Thanks! 🧔🏿👍🏿
I work for TMC I don't have one of those cameras I thought they were going to give me one the last time I went in for service but no not as of yet. the luck of a 14 model I guess hopefully it's persistent.
Perhaps they ran out of them when it was your turn. 🤔 To my knowledge, they were installing cameras in every truck that came in for service.
Facts I had a trainer at Navajo 15 years when I first started driving he took me there just to show me how bad it was. Long story short we kept getting stuck at low bridges needing cops to help us turn around in manhattan, his leg was shaking on the clutch and he was crying a little smh. Does TMC force u to go to NYC.? And can you give me a rough estimate of what I would make a week if I came with yall and stayed out 4-5 weeks every time before I went home.? Thanks again for the great content. If I come after winter’s over I’m definitely using you as a reference my guy , u give alotta good game on your channel 🫡
New York City is one of the worst places to drive a full sized semi in the entire country. You definitely need to know where you're going or have exact directions on how to properly get to your destination and back out. The company doesn't force dispatch, but they do have loads that pickup near and deliver within NYC. I can't accurately give you an estimate of what you would make. There are WAY too many variables that will influence that. Five different drivers from the same area could make five different amounts while they're out based on where they run, their dispatcher, what they haul, how they run their clocks, etc.
@@EruditeTruckerokay, thank you sir 🫡
Or just load the load right and you won't have to worry about it. You have spread axles so you can do 40k on your trailer. And you only had 33k... so you have 7k more on your trailer. I would of had like S11,680, D31,600 and T35,300. You need to find center load on that trailer
Couldn't be done. It was a preloaded and prepared trailer.
This is a key example of why some of y’all should put the camera down and gain more experience
Just by curiosity do you del ver to the home depot in Penfield ny
I have delivered to various Home Depot locations, but that one doesn't sound familiar. 🤔
@@EruditeTrucker oh ok just curious cause I saw a TMC truck this morning at the one I frequent
You used a steel tarp for that
Just keep an eye on the weather. If you do got to make sure you pull over and tarp, but it looks like at least you'll only have to use one tarp instead of two.
Very good video, very helpful, thank you for your time and effort
Appreciate it, glad you found it helpful. 🧔🏿👍🏿
Your only missing about 11 straps
The tie down straps being anchored incorrectly
Wouldn’t have worried over 140 lbs. something else you could have done is just slid your 5th wheel forward. You have at least 800 lbs possibly up to 1500 you could have slid depending of you truck specs.
Looks like world truck (owens corning) in Medina. Just picked up there 2 days ago
Use that beveled dunnage.... Works wonders! 😊
I had to take a break I mean eye distance to my stop or I would go into violation. Ridiculous. I was looking at the stop.
That sucks. It's good that you decided to stop for the break, though. No trouble on the back end if DOT or your logs department audits your logs later on.
Thanks flatbed dad
😅
This is too funny, I was at these same places this week. The first was that one in Lafayette Indiana then that Insulation place. Unfortunately for me I broke down in Chicago on the Dan Ryan Expressway in Rush hour. My Truck got towed to a Dealership and they replaced my bad Throttle Body today. I'm parked about 55 miles from the consignee that takes delivery at 9am. This was my first break down and I'm originally from the Chicago area. It went smoother than I thought it would. I'm probably going to get home late myself. Thanks for making these videos.
Chicago is a wild place for traffic. I try to avoid that area whenever I can. 😅 Glad that you were able to get towed out of there. I imagine that it took a while for a wrecker to get out there to you.
@@EruditeTrucker surprisingly I got towed off the Dan Ryan Expressway very quickly, the Tow Driver was very skilled.
@@joehedlund8342 Lucky for you. Rush hour in Chicago is an absolute nightmare. That tow driver likely has dealt with that type of thing often.
The guy is a 30 year tow veteran, he definitely knew what he was doing. 😊@@EruditeTrucker
A tarp on this type of load is for the packaging. Stores do not want damaged packaging because of the wind torn at highway speeds.
If they told u know tarp and let u leave with no tarp it's on them Also u wouldn't be compensated more for tarping u agree to the rate
He works for TMC transportation, they pay you for tarping…
TMC Rollin Deep on this one.. Sucks you had to wait, but good to see our Detention Dept is on top of things. And you're correct, TMC is $100 a Load w/Hazmat that gets a clean DOT Inspection per inspection. I have my X endorsement, so I asked that exact question in Orientation couple weeks back. if you can get multiple $100 on same load and they said yes you can. Easy way to rack up a few extra dollars. Stay safe out there Brother..Keep Crushing It!! Stay HUMBLE, Stay HUNGRY, Stay FOCUSED...~The Jarhead Entrepreneur
Yeah, those hazmat loads can pay if you're willing to take the risk with DOT. ☣️ They're easy to run if you know what you're doing. 🧔🏿👍🏿
I would have belly strapped the shingles
If the level was 3 high, then you are required to belly strap. Shingles don’t weigh that much to belly strap two levels high imo.
Someone who takes their job seriously. Always verify.
I try to stay ahead of the curve.
Did you have to tarp the whole load or just the boxes? Just curious.
I tarped everything except the shingles.
Maybe one day I will make it there. I’m in CDL school going to try and chase yall high rollers $ Lol!
It's a great place to visit. I hope you'll make it one day! 🧔🏿👍🏿
Most likely has an APU & doesn’t know better 🤣
The company that I drive with doesn't have APUs on their trucks.
You need to re do the straps
140 lolno body bother you.
Too Much Chrome anyway.
My hometown
Logging the speed limits on paper logs was ideal.
Coil Mats worked perfect for that Brother. I'm looking forward to these loads. Headed down to my trainer on Sunday. Great tips on safety while tarping that high of a load. Safe Travels Brother..Keep Crushing It!! Stay HUMBLE, Stay HUNGRY, Stay FOCUSED...~The Jarhead Entrepreneur
Appreciate the words. Good luck with your trainer. 🧔🏿👍🏿
