- THE DOORS ARE OPEN. JUST HAVE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO PLEASE. Backing up in a tight place. One of the most challenging places for a delivery up to now. Sure it's not blind side but still !

I have some experience with the long trailer's. People have no idea what these drivers go through. I have full respect for those people.
Thanks brother
Thx😁
I do not know what u talking about it’s easy as hell if you know how the trailer moves when you are straight and when you are at angle , let us be realistic and thanks those who worked the physics and mechanics . I get your frustration because most trucking schools do not train most people properly and do not teach their student how the trailers move when you are angle and how long it takes it to pivot these should not take more than 5 hours to be comprehended.
what is the address so I can refuse any loads to or from there.
😩
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣EXACTLY!!!
😩😂😂😂😂 lmfaooooo No seriously!
No response to this question? I'll avoid Ohio in general
At one time the standard trailer was 40' now it's 53' and the tractors have gotten longer too but the older buildings and the space around them stayed the same. These businesses need to either move or request smaller trucks such as box trucks to deliver and pick up their goods.
Only undelivered freight captures the pea brains in trucking management. They NEVER listen to the driver. The average dispatcher has zero time behind the wheel which is coincidentally close to their average IQ. And I don't even want to speak of their people skills.
Amen
When I first started Truckin' in 1976, I would have taken that load back as undeliverable, that's a great job in a tight place!
Seeing this, after 8 years driving trucks, I'm still a rookie, nice job driver.
When I made this delivery I had 1 year experience 😃
@ After twenty years you will go in and tell them where you are parked and ask them where the nearest coffee shop is.
@ thats talentttt
I tried this in LA and took out a car and power lines
@ Jezus cię kocha. Zaufaj mu, a On poprowadzi cię przez życie ❤️✝️❤️
I had 40 years under my belt when I retired 12 years ago-this driver did well. From what I remember when I was still working half the people out there in the trade would not even be able to get in to the dock.
Now it's well over half.
that's crazy how they want us to back up in the tightest places. good job trucker
Isidro Torres it’s not fair and the truck driver had no spotter ...but yes amazing job backing up in that area
You can do it, but there really is no reward, the company making more money by putting trailers into places they don't belong. It takes more out of you in stress than they want to admit. A driver is a slave's position now, not a career. They call it profit, I call it greed and lack of respect. More drivers should say no. Only undelivered freight gets attention. Truth.
I have to take a load of cattle feed to Nebraska. Down a single lane dirt road with drop offs.
I woulda took a pup trailer but that's that otr life . #local
This man is an example of a GREAT driver. He even got out to look.
It's a simple alley side dock they teach you this in driving school and you have to do it to pass the CDL test.
Bro they give you way more space too do a 90 degree alley dock in school then this.. this definitely is a tougher dock too get too in a sleeper cab for sure... this is definitely a good driver 👌.. i can probably park this in this spot but id definitely have too take sometime... you surprise yourself as a driver at some of the spaces you can and have too get into..
How about if he moved his tandems all the way to the front 🤔!!
@@samuelavila1977 Hahah. Most shippers require tandems all the way back.
@@samuelavila1977 It's counter intuitive, but moving the trailer wheels as far back as possible makes it easier, as well as moving the tractor tandems forward.
Could you imagine an automated truck attempting to back this in?
@Jeff Cairns I think he means a self driving truck
Alex thanks for the clarification. I thought he mean an automatic truck
@@noels9727 no problem brother
Well yah, because it don't got to look in mirrors, it can see every angle with cameras at the same time and adjust instantly. Prolly even have radar to tell it exactly how close it is to shit.
no. that's why I don't believe in automated trucks. Not yet, in 10 years maybe...
My 14 hour clock would have expired trying to back into that dock. 😒
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That looks incredibly unfun.
It wont dummy..put ur self in off duty u moving the truck under 4mph..you are weak
@@mad-mullah3117- You can’t stop your 14 hour clock once you start your day. What kind of training have you had?
15 here in Europe. I would stress out a lot and ask them to bring the forklift. Insane
What owners, shippers and receivers expect us to do, this guy makes it look easy. Like any of those sitting in the office could EVER do this.
Nice job driver. I backed into one like this in Chicago a few times. It never failed to make me sweat regardless of the temperature in the cab!
Duality240 Im in Chicago and i understand your struggle LTL lol
@@mrmete specially the north side and closer to the lake
@@mrelmachete68 lol fr fr
Why can't we give him a thumb up for such a great job he did,he's by himself.........and he did it!!!!!!!!!!!
.I
The 60 people who gave a thumbs down would back into a garage door with a Fiat.
LOL!! Soooo true! People have no idea how hard they are to maneuver lol!
Nicole Smith my father did the same thing with a kenworth T2000 and a 53' trailer at a place where only truck with a straight body could go
Lol, truth!!!
I would even say a smart car in a double garage.
And still tear down the walls
That's pure raw skill right there.
Very nice driver! Took a couple pull ups and even did G.O.A.L.! Don't see many drivers do this that should be.
Wiadomo, Polski Kierowca.Pozdo Rafale.
I never liked driving in NYC. Many of the warehouses were built over 100 years ago for much smaller trucks. Some places I had to back in, drop the trailer while jackknifed and park somewhere else so I wouldn't block traffic.
Wow, what a ludicrous place for a dock.
You're right! Patience is the key. I watched a 4 year driver back a 53 foot trailer into a very similar dock on Long Island. She made about a dozen attempts, but squared that trailer to the dock perfectly with the hood of her International a few feet from the opposite side of the yard. Good driver out of Georgia, switched careers when she lost her job. I may be the same way soon. Nice to see good folks doing it right. Stay safe out there.
Wow much respect you a real driver
No truck driver should have to back a trailer in, in a fucking alley hardly as wide as the truck itsself
why do u guys have negative comments?....you guys turn everything into a competition and u shud have one anothers back...i commend this driver😊
You rock! I drive a day cab in downtown Toronto (Canada) and this kind of backing takes a lot of skills. Especially without hitting shit.
Remember those who say we are being paid well, for the little we do. Said always by those who think they know.
Amen.
Yup, this guy did a great job. I would say 80% of this world couldn’t even shift a 10 speed on a freeway going straight. Let alone down shifting, hills, and then when you start learning to drive 13, 18 speeds, etc...
Little that you do? So everyone just started their own farms and built their own homes with no help?
Probably a dispatcher :-)
@@paulmunro3175 stop
Jamaica, Queens!! One way street, 3 telephone poles, 6 dumpsters, an old Caddy and a straight job,not straight at a 3 door dock! The mirrors were 4 inches from the no parking sign when I bumped the dock! I had to get out the shotgun side. All that in only 68 back ups! :-) Good job driver. Like I always say," drive that truck, you wanted this job"!
That's a hell of a good job backing up!
thanks for posting! people don't know, don't understand and don't appreciate the hard work and difficulties we encounter in this career as drivers. Kudos to the driver for a difficult backing well done!
With no spotter and he got out and checked. Impressive!.....J
Never ever trust a spotter
@@aebalc Most of the time they are standing where you can't see them waving their arms like crazy. That's when I stop, get out and see for myself.
As a driver of those vehicles, mad respect to that guy. And for getting out and looking to check the position on his offside.
I would of said screw it and left lol
Rafal Szacun i pozderko 🇵🇱👍
I would refuse to ever go back to that place
I like a challenge, that's how you grow as a driver. But yeah 3 times my limit for that place Haha.
@@carlosmartinezz3022 absolutely agree
Ok tell your dispatcher that then. LOL
@@GBM6988 Limited Access 😂😂
@@carlosmartinezz3022 that's not how that works
Day cab makes all the difference. What really took his skills over the edge was those daytime lights. They made it all possible.
its better to bring fork lifter out for unloading than testing the skills of driver.
How are you going to get the fork lift off the dock? See the problem
@@santini1953 It's the customer's problem. If the company puts freight on a straight truck, it's more expensive because you still have to pay the driver and make x dollars to be profitable. A 53' keeps costs down, profits up and customer happy. I gave up the role of Christ long ago.
@@santini1953
Find out if their fork truck can be relocated down to the street level. And if it can, as long as the load is on pallets, you can put a pallet jack in the trailer along with couple of good working hands who knows what they're doing.
Might take a bit but it definitely can be done.
Now, if the load was slip sheeted onto the trailer.... Yikes! 😳
@@RenKnight347 , i use to drive otr for years
@slowpoke284 backing a truck comes with experience when i first tried backing up in CDL school i couldnt back a straight line to save my live.. 5yrs later i get trucks into places you would have never thought possible. word of advice if you wanna get better take every chance you can get to back up. thats how you get better is by challenging yourself
First and LAST time that Driver bumps that dock. right? lol
Most drivers won’t get out to look till they hit something.
This is my second time viewing this video. I'm just as impressed as the first time I saw it.
there was a driver with England who would tell us new drivers about backing up thru 7 alleys just to back into a supermarket dock, in Chicago. it was a good thing, since it was very early in the morn and had to cross 7 highways while backing up. if it had been rush hr, he'd of never made it. i'm glad i never had to do that.
Ive been there it was built when they used cab overs and 48' trls
@Alrgc2Air These buildings look so old, I bet when they built them they never dreamed they would need that much room. :)
Designed for straight jobs or at most the old forty footers.
My son is a semi driver. And he has a customer in downtown Chicago that he has to back up into a tight fit for their dock. It took him a couple of times to get use to it. And now for him it's like frosting a cake.
wheres a Cabover when you need one :)
@kdraper2007 I know man. I'm used to driving trucks round Africa.There are no small roads around here. You got loads of space to spin around. When I was studying in the UK i drove artics to make ends meet. It's the same, try fit a 40ft trailer where they used park donkey carts 400 years ago. London is one of the worst. It's always good to see a guy using skill to fit something that was not supposed to be there, & with class!! I love it. Truckers rule buddy. We go further in reverse than anybody!
Nice work driver I feel your pain daily! be safe and hammerdown!
I hated to deliver in Brooklyn, NY. It was about like this, the worst. This guy did an outstanding job of docking.
Good job, but I would RAISE my price to drop there again, big time!!
Beautifully done. What more can be said!
I’m sure right after he bumped the dock Karen pulled up complaining he’s blocking the road
Yup. Happened to me many times
I actually had this happen and told her to go under the trailer, that there was a lot of room. She got out and looked. Then she came up to me and said, " Are you sure?".
Paul Munro 😹
@@paulmunro3175 😂
@yamahonkawazuki - I learned my lesion about opening the doors long before I have to. While backing into a covered dock up north, NY I think, with about a 4% grade part of my load fell out. I wait to the last min now. Most docks you have to as soon as you set up though due to the dock doors being so close to one another.
there were some places like this in NYC, and i hated that city, never was ideal for 53 footers.
I had about this much room at a place in chicago when I was a student. There was a trailer on each side..I was nervous as hell but got it in there. My instructor told me he had never seen a student hit that spot. I was pretty happy to know that I was the first new guy to do it.
He should've slid the tandems all the way to the front before trying this one. I am still impressed however. I think I would have struggled as well.
Widziałem kiedyś ten filmiki nie miałem pojecia, że jesteśmy rodakami. Miła niespodzianka! :D
Those buildings were probably built before semitrucks were around. They were designed for those old REO style trucks without trailers.
Thats the problem with delivering to old sections of an old city that have not changed much. Some are so old, that they were receiving deliveries from horse drawn wagons.
Winterstick549 that would be the entire east coast and some midwest cities and town
I wouldn’t want to be in this driver shoes , he did it amazing job . I have 35 years experience as big truck driver
wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! respect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job backing. I was a rookie driver back in 2003 and I had to do the same thing in Boston, MA. with no spotter and it sucked. The only difference for me was that instead of straightening out, my truck HAD to be 90 degrees to the trailer when docked. Because the end of the alley was also the only driveway to several business entrances. I had to leave room for vehicles to drive pass. It took me several tries but finally got it in.
Damittttt driver good job. I miss home
Talk about tight maneuvers...thumbs up for him checking the location of the front end.
All you have to do is adjust that front passenger side spot mirror, angled down so you can see your front bumper and fender.
And this eliminates the need to get out.
To make it better ,swap that mirror for the more rounded ones that have that fish eye view like the ones school buses have.
You can see all the front and the blind side ;) and trees and cable/power lines.
Mandatory for a city driver like me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's what i did to my company tractor now i back up anywhere like a boss and maneuver through cable lines and trees in residential areas.
FEDEX CITY DRIVER
Good job, driver. It could have been worse; nighttime, raining, traffic wanting to get thru, but still very good job. Reminds me of Sheltered Workshop off Allegheny Ave in Phillie.
The job for a volvo!
My man knows the mechanics of backing up a trailer. Bravo!!!👏🏿👏🏿
Very Nice. Couldn't have done it better myself.
Had a super tight spot to back in and down a ramp, had to get a woman boss lady from her meeting to move her car that she parked with part of the rear in my turning area. She struts out , says to me ,You can't back in there? I can back it in there! I tell her -the key in and it's running go for it. She moved her car. Glad I'm retired.
i woudn't go there. Just parked outside and told them to unload it from there. This isn't worth a risk of damaging something
+Марк Пресняков If there is something very heavy thats need crane to unload , i dont think driver had other choice.You could park it outside ,but then u will be the one who will pay for the crane :)
+Czecher86 what a STUPID comment. what was on that truck that could only be removed with a CRANE????????
Back when I just shouldered the load. Now I just tell them where I am parked. Rule # 1: no extra heartbeats, because you are NOT being paid for them. Manning up now is just dumb. Greed kills.
There is a fine line between genius and insanity. This backing job crossed the line. GREAT JOB!!! While this video may not be an instructional video, what is truly does is show what is capable with a big rig. Thank you for this video.
I once had a similar situation in Chicago, only it was blindside and there was traffic on the street. I was lucky enough to have my trainer with me and spot me. Although honking horns and cars squeezing through where they can doesn't make it any less stressful.
Welcome to our everyday world - LTL
Honch777 TRUTH
Right LTL with pup trailers and day cabs?
a good professional driver always takes his time and gets out to check his position if he cant see, top marks to this driver!!
I am always amazed by truck-drivers' ability to get their vehicles into spaces I hadn't realized it was possible to get something that size into.
Remember what G.O.A.L. stands for :P
Get out and leave.
I agree. It also makes sense for them to get their product out of the truck and onto the 'shelves' faster.
good driving 10 4
Yes very good indeed. Anybody who can back up a big rig gets my respect. This is not an easy thing to do.
I would have said fuck this I'm going home they expect truck driver s to back it in to NASCAR track!!!
Besides improve your company warehouse dam it, unnecessary risk.
Practiced driver! Good job Rafał!
Greetings!
And at the end he realizes that he didn't opened the trailer doors

i backed into a spot different than that. It was in Illinois at a pepsi distribution center about as tight as this except all concrete wall n the right and I was in a 2006 frieghtliner century with a sleeper berth. I am always up for the challenge like this driver but I can only do so much. Great job to this driver and showing patience.
I inspect commercial vehicles like these, and I have the upmost respect for them. They are really nice and cool people to talk to, and they do their job. Without them, a lot of supplies wouldnt get to the stores.
good parking!!! i been driving 4 like 6 months!!!! my nightmare is backing 4 my blind side!!!!
Remind me never to go to Cincinnati. A good driver always get's out and checks to see where he is. Great job driver.
good job , always makes me laugh here on youtube no matter how hard and tight the gap is someone has had an even harder back up
Yes, patience IS the key. Great job there. I'm glad your power steering wasn't broken. Also glad that we don't have to see too many docks like that. Have only had a few. Thanks for sharing.
Good job.... I used to pick up daily at JI Case in St.Paul, the dock was inside made for pups and maybe a 38 footer. The US Mail 48 footer with a White cab over would line up the dock then shove the trailer to a 90 degree using the dock as a pivot. He did this daily, wish I have a video of that.
i give this driver credit for backing up in such a tight place, that takes skill.
It's a real thrill to watch a true professional!
Thanks for posting, nolibab3!!! It's great to let the public see what we go thru on a daily basis! Yes, paitience is word. And it doesn't make you any less macho if you "get out & look"! (Sure bats having to fill out the paperwork, too!) And, VERY good backing job, BTW!
@jeccovecco well you gotta learn how to back up a trailer, gotta do a pretrip inspection before you go anywhere, check all your guages, make wide turns, its pretty tricky but after you've been driving for a while you get used to it
Like a three inch pipe up the ass..That's diameter folks.
very good job of backing. Driver used his head by getting out and look and took his time. In tight spots like that place in Cincinnati, you got to take your time. If it takes over ten minutes or more so be it. great job.
I've been there, got it in first time, piece of cake, it's all in your set up
It was nice to see that you got out of the truck to see where you were at. People say that it makes you look like a rookie when you get out of your truck to take a look around when backing. I say No, you look like a rookie when you back into another truck/ or take out one of your mirrors or side swipe a wall or another truck. Keep rollin driver
Very good, I like how you got out to look, good lesson for all drivers, Get out to Look"
@BrushlessNitroSlayer I always use my highway tractor for backing up, it's the only way you can get better, also a word of advice... When using the daycab with a window in the back... Paint the damn window black and use your mirrors otherwise when you don't have the window as an option you'll find it harder.
props for getting out and looking. so many drivers feel too embarrassed to get out and physically look.
Nice work bud... we get loads like this in the U.K. but thank got our trailers are only 45 foot standard not 52 foot like you boys...
Give this man a raise.
I had a place like that in Buffalo Ny with poles on both sides of the street and a walkover builing connector. Never fun, never easy! But doable.
