No matter how long you been doing roll off these kind of things can happen to anybody especially when you get too comfortable you have to pay attention at all times
Correct you pay attention at all times and most importantly if you find a box ready to flip you have to have the ability to get from under it I keep saying if you’re gonna do this type of work you have to have the ability to solve problems as they arise if you don’t have that ability you don’t need to be doing that type of work I find nothing funny about what I’m looking at because Somebody can die if they’re not careful
Of course you have to pay attention all the time you can actually correct any problems before they arise. Even when you see your container doing something phoney when it is going up the rails you can correct it.
Guy I used to work with at another job died today running a roll off. Sounds like the bin fell on him. I hauled gas for a while. Company I worked for had a thing called "Stop, think, and act". Stop long enough to think about what you’re about to do Think about how you’re going to do it. Is it the safest way? If not, how can you do it better? Act in the safest way possible. Make it home every day. Be safe!
I had something similar happen at landfill. Uneven ground. Was half way up the hoist and halfway on rail. Another roll off truck back against the box to kerp it from falling over. And a frontloader lifted it so i could get it back on rails
I’ve been running all sorts of heavy equipment for 20 years now. To include 53’ dry box. Buddy and I just started a 15-20 hook&go business locally. I’ll get to this point eventually (moving larger containers) but I’m hoping I should transition fine giving my experience. Just trying to educate myself on what to look out for.
Congratulations on the new business, as a driver trainer the most important thing I teach everyone is TO TAKE YOUR TIME! The speed will come with experience. I prefer to teach on the outside controls first to get the big picture and see everything of picking up a box. I know most companies don't allow an extended period of time for training and just want you too be a number and start making money for them, but it just sets alot of people up for failure.
@@BoredGuyWithACamera thank you. Yeah I’m not worried about speed. I get things done as long as it takes me. I don’t mess around in CMVs. (Even tho the 20 isn’t technically, but it’s heavy and larger) but I’m comfortable with PTO and controls. I’ve been running equipment and PTO trucks for a while. To include dump trucks, sanders and etc. plows, excavation equipment, cranes. That stuff doesn’t bother me. Watch overhead clearance also. Yeah can’t rush green people w this stuff. It’s definitely a comfort level that takes time. We have green people often at work that run huge snow equipment and we see plenty of damage. Mostly from kids that say they’re comfortable when they don’t pay attention. And mostly just don’t know what they’re doing.
You think this is bad! We had a dumb sh#t leave his rack up and drive through a garage door. I beam came down on the auto tarper, ripped down the front of the building. He's lucky to be alive. Estimated damage to the truck and building $250,000 USD. and no he longer has a job. And this one is from dumping with the door open but not chained properly. I've had to repair more than a few. PS should of added the truck is 3 months old.
Once I had the hook underneath the bin break off. As I was shaking the bin started hopping around , thought it was odd. Shook it off to being in an older truck that day..next shake and she's half off. Saved by the excavator. Doesn't take much always pay attention
Do not fear it, always make sure your door is latched. If it's a little iffy use a bungee super tight. If you were trained properly you should never derail a box.
@@BoredGuyWithACamera the truck has rollers at the rear it was still on the both rollers drove off straight and let it drop lit came of with can open at 45 angle backing up and braking hard to break the trash loose .
Had a loaded box come off the rails once. I had it lined up almost fully on when it suddenly jumped and the back slid off to the right turned out the rail under the box had splitt and folded over ontop of the truck rail when it reached one of the rollers it jumped off managed to save it and get back on but a 9 on the sphincter scale
There’s absolutely nothing funny about what we’re looking at that’s a serious situation for most guys are not made to do this type of work I’ve had a box nearly flipped on me on three occasions and all three occasions I got from under it without having to flip the box if you’re going to be a Roll Off driver your number one goal is to solve problems if you ain’t got the ability to solve an issue when you come across it you do not need to be doing that type of work that’s just straight fax
It's not meant to be a funny video, it is a good way to bring awareness to guys coming into the business. If your lazy and don't double check everything then your going to have problems like this frequently.
I agree boom was way to high to get box off truck and shouldn't have let out so much slack... mistake on top of mistake... drive safe everyone and have a great day!!
all you had to do was lift it back up when the can is back on the ground just steer the truck back straight with the rails let down and your good to go
Bored guy with a camera! Oh okay thanks for replying! God I think we’ve all had that sketchy latch or safety chain but I’ve been lucky so far. I keep an extra strap in my box just in case I don’t trust the doors latch. Thankfully no one was hurt here. I’ve seen those doors fly open and it’s a scary sight
@@jonathankoehler4661 absolutely special since noone respects the space around your truck at most dump sites. I go to one place that's open to the public and I always put a super tight bungee on the door cause I don't feel like watching someone get blasted by the door.
Bored guy with a camera! Absolutely agree. The company I work for also owns a few transfer stations themselves. We have a policy that when the tractors are dumping their trailers, no one, including the transfer station workers are allowed inside. You’d be surprised how many outside haulers have a problem waiting!
I hate ppl that make fun of someone who had some kind of accident, EVERYBODY is exposed to something like this, we as rolloff drivers had this happen to us at least once, OR it's coming, TRUST me on that...😉
I understand, the video was not really meant to be a joke, but is definitely an eye opener for those who are starting out of how quickly things can go sideways in this business. Complacency will definitely bite you if your not on your A game.
You're right about that, I just seen a similar incident recently where the cable has not all the way on the hook and he lost the entire compactor in an apartment complex and it with through a brick wall.
There are some dumb people he will be at the welding shop asking for someone to fix it There was a roll off driver who can back every other day to fix something on his truck usually the hooks or the lightbar
Thank you for stopping by and leaving feedback. I greatly appreciate it. Sorry you did not like the video, if you scan through my playlists maybe I have something that suits your style of entertainment. Thank you again and have a blessed day.
Looking to get into this. I have a CDL -A hazmat, doubles triples, tanker. Never used my license. Will a company hire and train me on roll offs. Just wanna ask
Appreciate you stopping by, the answer to your question is Yes. It's all about the company needs in your area. This business is not for everyone so we have a problem with retention. Where are you located, I could definitely give you a few options to try?

It's simple, have the loader hold the dumpster with his bucket as you roll off from under it

Happens to the best of us lost a box last week since I lost my last one 5 yrs ago stay safe
Once I had the hook underneath the bin break off. As I was shaking the bin started hopping around , thought it was odd. Shook it off to being in an older truck that day..next shake and she's half off. Saved by the excavator. Doesn't take much always pay attention
Yeah, I've seen it happen. It could happen at any time.
My guess, didn't strap the door, pushed the box off with the door when raising it up.
You got that right, or the chain broke. I see it happen a couple of times a week
Guy should be fired for walking under the compactor like that. Super stupid
You are right about that.
He let line to far out !!!
I am a new driver as well as new roll off driver. This is my absolute fear when doing compactors lol
Do not fear it, always make sure your door is latched. If it's a little iffy use a bungee super tight. If you were trained properly you should never derail a box.
@@BoredGuyWithACamera I slipped the hook with the rails still on the rollers
You mean the cable came of the box?
@@BoredGuyWithACamera no cable on the truck hook and 2 hyro rams
@@BoredGuyWithACamera the truck has rollers at the rear it was still on the both rollers drove off straight and let it drop lit came of with can open at 45 angle backing up and braking hard to break the trash loose .
Better be safe than sorry.
Had a loaded box come off the rails once.

He looked like he wasn’t safe the way he had the accident. Then really unsafe by pulling off fast maybe causing more damage to his truck. SMH
You got that right!
I agree boom was way to high to get box off truck and shouldn't have let out so much slack... mistake on top of mistake... drive safe everyone and have a great day!!
Agreed, he should have let the cable out slowly and pulled out from under it slowly.
Holy fuck , nightmare of every roll off driver
all you had to do was lift it back up when the can is back on the ground just steer the truck back straight with the rails let down and your good to go
He buggin 😂😂😂😂
Sorry I’m a bit confused, How did it derail in the first place? Clip the building with an open door? (Drive a hooklift and moving into roll off soon)
So, while he was dumping the door flung open. He didn't notice so as he lifted the boom the door pushed the box sides ways.

@@jonathankoehler4661 haha, I wouldn't be surprised by anything in the trash business.
I been having 700 delivers some times hard some times easy pero gracias a Dios cada bes agarro mas experiencia
He could have driven to a clear area and allowed the bin to SLOWLY slide off, realign it and pull it back onto the truck.
You are right about that.
What just happened? How did he get that cable to do that? I mean it had zero tension..and his vehicle was had no e brake on? I bet he got fired..
Nah, definitely didn't get fired for this incident.
Why he drive off so fast 💨 😳

Jesus the cable was loose all the way
You're right about that, I just seen a similar incident recently where the cable has not all the way on the hook and he lost the entire compactor in an apartment complex and it with through a brick wall.
Hoist up, pull forward to the right to get rails under again.. no need for the scandal... oh wait they are union right??
No union in Nashville
Drag it out and pullout slow
All he had to do was raise the hoist because the ground leveled the dumpster.
half urban half suburban Ik dis is old but I thought the same when I seen the video for the first 5 seconds
WOW, dude is great 👍
First day in the job? Lol
Not even close.
There are some dumb people he will be at the welding shop asking for someone to fix it There was a roll off driver who can back every other day to fix something on his truck usually the hooks or the lightbar
Well you know in this business anything can happen. It's seems to be the same people over and over again huh.
Did he get fired?
Nope!
Write up for sure
I’m trying to figure out why did u start off your video with the laughing emoji Because ain’t shit funny about this situation
Thank you for stopping by and leaving feedback. I greatly appreciate it. Sorry you did not like the video, if you scan through my playlists maybe I have something that suits your style of entertainment. Thank you again and have a blessed day.
he isn't skilled at all
You got that right bud!
Is he new maybe he's never driven roll off, we can't judge could be nerves as well seems like a rookie mistake
@@JonLondon210 not new at all and has since been let go for damaging too many boxes by flipping them.
Omg

You're right it took 3x of doing this same thing at the transfer and side swiping a car before management took action.
@@BoredGuyWithACamera It’s just us I’m in the video was a nightmare for that particular type of work it takes a skillful mind to handle such a job
