If you ever run into this again, on the passenger side frame rail towards the front there is a VIN plate. By federal law it will tell you total capacity and the capacity of each compartment. I hauled fuel for over 30 years. Stay safe guys.
Yo, He's been there Before, AIR? I Love to watch a Perfectionist WORK that Magic!! At the End..POOF! All is Well! (AND he's running the Drone, etc.!) Impressive! - In my Vader Voice...
Josh, that tanker was really beat up so it was the right call to empty it first. Too bad it tied you guys up for hours. It amazes me how much you guys have to know to do a job like this! Another great job by Pepe's! Thanks!
It was also leaking, it had a hole. That's why Hazmat was there talking about surveying how much soil was contaminated. Once that happens, it's 100% necessary to empty. It's a long process but necessary.
Josh , your dad looks like he's lost some weight.. It's always good to see him out there with yall. He has a good sense of humor. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
Fuel hauler here (NOT THE DRIVER OF THE TRUCK IN VIDEO) Diesel fuel weighs about 7.2 pounds per gallon. Gasoline weighs about 6 pounds per gallon. Also, on most tanker trailers, there will be a plate on the driver side near the landing gear that tells you how many compartments and how much those compartments will hold.
I am impressed by the lifting capacity of the rotators, but I am always fascinated by the rigging process. the number of decisions that need to be made is amazing. Then, after the job is completed, everything is carefully stowed, ready for the next job.
Great job as always with Alex the boss man and all the crews working to get that mess cleaned up and out of there. A lot of hurry up and wait on this job!
California has some crazy sharp turns. Especially hard turns for truckers. Good thing I don’t drive a truck or live in California. lol. Great video and love PEPES.
Remember Palestine Ohio, they dumped that shit in a ditch, then lit it off. What the Hell were they thinking. Glad you guys are around, and I mean all of you. This mess was cleaned up the correct way. Thanks, Pepe's...Fire Fighters...Hiway Patrol...Hazmat...all involved...thanks
Diesel that is dyed is fuel oil #2 for farm vehicles and heating oil. Ran it in the bus I had because I had an oil boiler heater and generator. Since it only had one tank, I could use it in the Detroit Diesel engine. 1/2 the price of diesel.
then they dug up all the bad dirt and warren buffetts 100% owned railroad finally did what was right. in e Palestine they voted about 75 25 for the man that allowed the deregulation of the railroads and the non maintenance of hot box detectors. that fire should have been caught well before it became a disaster. welcome to government influencers.
Bro your dad is legit the best. Seems like my pops when he was still around😂 very stern but can be goofy when its time. Takes his work and company title serious. I remember that firefighters saying he knows your dad and trust him. That alone speaks volumes. Great vid.
How about this information on the top, bottom, front, back, right, and left side of the container. This will eliminate this headache and heartburn for all agencies involved. I also realize these tankers carry the plackers indicating what they are carrying. I mean, there has to be a way to elevate this problem
@@PepesTowingService It would cost the trailer manufacturers very little extra to have two placards, one on each side, as after all trailers sometime roll over :)
We need more videos with dad in them! He is fun to watch, his experience and stubbornness shows well. When it was uprighted with a crash and a bang is old school but Alex seemed to get mad and quit talking.
Alex Dad and the rest of the crew are amazing! It all starts from the top DAD is one hard worker and everyone follows his example and busts their butts! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
An awesome demonstration of experience by the Boss. Alex said the upright was "ugly". Yes, not pretty but, how much time was saved? How much sooner was the highway opened up? I saw him do the same thing in an older video. The trailer starts to come over while moving it into position and he sees that Alex has a working catch and it's not heavy so, go with it. I LOVE watching the Boss work!! Be safe my friends!
I sensed a REAL concern. Alex had with that landing. ,, That just shows hes very professional NOT to knock. Anyones. Abilities Great jog guys. Excellent team work 😂
The tag on the side of the trailer shows the compartment sizes & total capacity. The tags are not always on the right side. On some of our trailers, they are on the left (driver side).
@@PepesTowingService another way to find size of the compartment is find the permit book and look for vapor certs, has every compartment size, chp should have known that,
As a tanker tanker, there are plates welded to the side of the trailer that tells you how much each compartment can hold. Unfortunately, it happens to be laying on the driver side. That’s where they normally put it.. Nice work
Hi Alex your truck is nice and neat, you know where everything is, you don’t have to open up all the doors to find your equipment ❤ love it when you and Josh work together. Alex and Josh is so in sync How long is Josh on maternity leave, we miss him
I hope everyone affected by this accident is safe and sound. I feel so much safer knowing that there are men in my state who know what to do this in this scenario… That looks like a war zone!
Great job Alex ! I can see what you meant about it being ugly. No big deal. It landed on it's feet so to speak. And that crash was one mell of a hess !
Back in the late 70s Shell Oil put together what they called their RAT team,,,,rollover action team. In their response trailer they had air operated hole saws, stingers that would reach the bottom of a compartment entering from the side. They had compressed air tanks on board, various sizes of hoses and air driven product pumps. They could arrive on scene and either pump into a stand by truck or use a vacuum truck and have the overturn empty and ready to upright in short order. Each of our Shell trucks had a black dot on the bulhead front and rear at a point that would be above liquid level if the truck were on it's side. As for compartment compacity the driverside tank bolster on the front has a data plate that tells all the needed information, date of manufacture, who was the manufacturer, thickness of the material and compartment sizes. Retired Shell Oil in 2002!
Quite the party out there. Those draw quite a crowd. The flip was ugly, but efficient as long as the load cooperates. Nice work with all the agencies involved.
I look at this and think to myself, that's a long time to be out there without a bathroom nearby. Lol Also I have nothing but respect for Alex's ability to maintain his composure even after the boss man showed up and changed the plan of attack for uprighting the trailer/tractor
I reckon it would have been finished hours earlier if Pepe's owned a tanker and a pump truck (and a long hose). I guess you'd have missed out of 4+ hours of standby though. I noticed this on other events too, they get the wreckers on scene when there's hours of safety & cleanup to do. I guess they want you there incase it's a quick move.
they would have to have epa licenses and insurance for that and environmental spills are hell expensive if they mess up. so it may not be worth the trouble for that
A tanker hauling ethanol out of Oshkosh Wisconsin, rolled one mile from the loading point. It took down near 12 hours by the time they pumped it out to upright the tractor trailer. They did drill the compartments.
I drove one of these back in the 70s. Scares me to death how dangerous it was. I was to young to care back then. Only cared about those big pay checks. I realize now it was hazard pay.
Alex was not happy with how Poppa did the upright that was hilarious, but I get both POVs but it ended up working out tbh it came out pretty clean lol...tell him Alex so it wont bother you lol
Nice job Alex, papa Joe and Castro. Another successful recovery from team Pepe’s. Hope all is well Josh with Ares and family. I have your stuff just need to send it out if you get a chance check your messages.
Another job well done. That one minute of glory was certainly correct. Makes we wonder why they get the recovery crew out so soon. While the upright works, it didn't have the finesse I am used to. I like the way the boss's boss came around to thank and congratulate the crew.
@@kelleyunofficial3269 Yes. It's a hard transition to make, from being an operator to being a boss of a much larger operation. He hires guys to be experts at their job. A good boss knows what the hazards are and supervises his operators, keeping them out of trouble. A good boss tries not to interfere with them doing their jobs. Power to him for picking up the broom et al. They are a team and it shows. Everybody we seen on camera anticipates and helps. There are still lots of lessons to be learned from The Boss about situations they haven't seen yet but Alex, Dave and Josh are the company experts (that we have seen so far) in that fleet of 7(?) rotators within his company. That discussion of chains vs slings was telling as well. No biggy though. As Ron says 'There are a thousand ways to get to 10" and these guys got to 10 with no mishaps.
25:14 "I think he must've wiggled out." I work for a grocery distributor; half of our fleet's seat belts stay buckled because the drivers refuse to wear them. The only reason it's buckled is to silence the alarm in the truck, and to keep the tractor asset protection system from logging an unsafe event. Useless if no one ever checks it.
Josh, that lift and roll wasn't as pretty as most of Pepe's ballet moves but as Mr. Harley said to Mr. Davidson 100 years ago "what's good is what works"! Congrats!
On preflight test for water in the fuel tank, a sample is drawn. Water is heavier than fuel. Water weighs 8 pounds/gal and fuel weighs 6 pounds/gal. Water is clear, and fuel has a yellowish/brown color to it. On the P-3.
Alex another great job well done and the boss man Josh dad is amazing how he's interacting with people that's why he is the boss and so successful say hello to papi chulo 🌹 JOE ❤️

I've responded to fatal wrecks where the guy's keys are gone, it wasn't for a long time when I finally found out that 90% of the time the ambulance guys take them
Everybody is wondering about the capacity of that trailer. All you have to do is go into the glove box and pull out the paperwork for the trailer. You have to have it in order to load at any terminal and it will tell you the exact specifications of the trailer because they have to be vapor tested annually
I'm a bit surprised the wrecked rig still had its lights on. I figured they would disconnect the batteries so there wouldn't be a chance of something sparking and lighting stuff off if the spillage got worse.
Alex, Great video as usual. You really rock with the overhead shots. Thank you for that 😊😊 Several comments. 1. Truck 85?? C'mon man, you got to do better than that. Truck 85 is just so generic. Give all your rigs names and make them feel like part of the Pepe family 😢😢 2. I can't imagine having a fluid recovery truck and not having enough hose to reach more than 10 ft?? That's just plain silly. I mean that's all they do is off load gas, diesel, cooking oil or whatever. Would any of your rotators go out without a full compliment of accessories?? Simple answer is NO.!!!!! 3. You may or may not be able to answer this, but are your trucks on the clock from the moment you arrive on scene until you leave or are these set price recoveries regardless of actual time on site?? 4. Finally. You said this, not me when you called that recovery UGLY 😱😱. Definitely NOT one of your best. You didn't have much choice in my opinion 😢😢 Once again, thanks for taking us along. Always entertaining watching you and Josh do your magic 😂😂😂 Ron from Ohio
Hey Alex. I thought I saw Big flipper on the 15 freeway just north of the 210 in the southbound lanes and looked like burned up tractor trailer or something like that. Wasn’t sure if that was you in the inland empire. It was around 1am in the morning but it looked like the rotator was white like yours. Anyways I enjoy all Josh’s and your videos. Have a great day.
Most tanker truck s here in Montana will fill their first compartment 60% an the second compartment around 45% that is if they have a pup an the pup around 50% but if they go through Wyoming they have to be around 31 tons altogether.
I love how the boss man does the math in his head, and knows how much fuel is in the tank. Experience at its finest.
My dad is a HUGE math and numbers guy. We joke and call him "rain man" but it comes in handy!
I know I know
If you ever run into this again, on the passenger side frame rail towards the front there is a VIN plate. By federal law it will tell you total capacity and the capacity of each compartment. I hauled fuel for over 30 years. Stay safe guys.
Wonder how visible that plate was ??
@@deernutOOgo look lol
But wouldn’t this pretty much need the truck be either upright or laying kn the cab side? Cause like this the plate should be on the ground, no?
Correct lol we wouldn't be guessing if the company rep knew or if the plate was not on the rolled side
@@PepesTowingService Good point 😁😁😁
Alex has good patience. Job well done, putting up with all the different agencies that need to be led along their way.
Patience of a saint!

Fuel hauler here (NOT THE DRIVER OF THE TRUCK IN VIDEO)
Diesel fuel weighs about 7.2 pounds per gallon. Gasoline weighs about 6 pounds per gallon. Also, on most tanker trailers, there will be a plate on the driver side near the landing gear that tells you how many compartments and how much those compartments will hold.
I guess in this case the VIN plate would have been buried in the dirt since it was driver side down therefore not accessible.

Awesome video Alex , it’s nice seeing Josh's Dad working the scene with you
Alex is such a pro, he deals with all situations that arise.
Boss man knows Alex is smart! Love how Alex explains what is going on.
I LOVE how much respect everyone on scene had for Pepe's, especially CHP. I also love how everyone at Pepe's works so great together!
WOW....Alex, Dad & Teams were worked in tune like an Orchestra. The CHP/LE when they knuckle bumped you was BEAUTIFUL!. WELL DONE!!
Fortunately diesel fuel is not a pollutant, if it were you never would havr gotten finished cleaning this mess.
I sometimes think I missed my calling. Thanks for a great video.

Those trucks look awesome love the clear coverage of yellow lighting, roads are pretty crazy more lights the better nowadays, stay safe god bless.
Thats looks like Southbound 710 Alex. Hated that on ramp and off ramp especially during rush hour.
Great work by all and great B-roll footage.
Great job Papa Pepe, Alex and crew. 19:56

You are correct, that was on the rolled side which made it impossible to look at
it's so stupid that there is not a plate on each side . federal law needs to add that requirement. why is everything to minimum standards in america?
As always great to see PEPES grow as much as it has from the PEPES I use to know back in the 90's early 2000s.
Alex " you wanna upright it like that? really?" Wish i could have seen the look on Joe's face. After that question.
Hi Alex your truck is nice and neat, you know where everything is, you don’t have to open up all the doors to find your equipment ❤ love it when you and Josh work together. Alex and Josh is so in sync
How long is Josh on maternity leave, we miss him
I imagine it's more of a "set up" process that he always does. If you notice he also closes everything before doing a lift just to open them again
I hope everyone affected by this accident is safe and sound. I feel so much safer knowing that there are men in my state who know what to do this in this scenario… That looks like a war zone!
Great job Alex ! I can see what you meant about it being ugly. No big deal. It landed on it's feet so to speak. And that crash was one mell of a hess !

That was probably just another fuel hauler that got rerouted to do a pump out. The hoses he had on his truck were just what he used for regular work.
