As a Freight Damage Inspector (who, incidentally, has inspected items here in Hawaii in Estes behalf!) I'm a taken back a bit by that receiver's cavalier attitude about that punctured box. His examination wasn't nearly through enough and when they find out later that what's inside IS damaged, they make a claim, but they signed off on the bill, but they contest it, then I get sent out! My company does only inspections of damage in behalf of carriers. What you do with the webcam actually would be great, and help me on my job! Another great, informative video, Chuck!
They drug test fore warehouse work even if you have medical
Over the last two and a half years stuff is just damaged so much more than it used to be. I've had probably one damaged product per week come back for between $1k and $50k in emergency replacement. My incoming isn't much better, with up to 10% loss on incoming materials (thousands of dollars) due to damage in shipping. At this point it's sadly just become a routine occurrence.
Love my drivers though, some real characters in that mix.
@@fredo2x625 Yes. Safety sensitive positions require it. Be glad they still only do urinalysis. Hair test goes back up to 6 months. If you want this kind of job, stop using. If you want to use, even medically, you'll have to seek a different line of work until the Feds say ok. It's still illegal as far as they're concerned.
@@Truckngirl do you think soon it will be ok by feds just years to come ?
@@fredo2x625 Probably.
As a dock worker, we always understood the pressure that the truck drivers might be under, and would always ask if they needed us to take our break later if needed. Some would be very thankful, while others told us to take our time. We always made sure to have cold water, a clean bathroom, and a phone for them to use (back in the days before cell phones). It is amazing how much better service one got when treating people well.
Totally agree
spent nearly 3 decades making deliveries so I know some stops your in and out and some your there from 15 to nearly 30 minutes and would cover 300 to nearly 400 miles and multiple states in a day,my day would start at 5am M-F and some Saturdays during the summer months,but be home nightly sometimes late..
I left OTR for a 26' box truck route. Wasnt sure if I would like the box truck driving but honestly Im happier now that I was OTR. Home every night was a massive bonus
Estes first terminal was actually down that street at the stop sign on the right the smaller building I rennet swing their trucks when I was little growing up over there
So funny how on Monday you pass right by my yard where my truck is parked. But by the time you start I'm already started my route. Love the video Chuck.
I would come home after running the roads all day as a “local”TL driver to watch an LTL driver unload his truck 😂 I’m pretty content with just bumping the docks I do, not near as much stress as running OTR for sure
Love the work of truckers, so calm, and full of all types of people which can make your day and places you have never seen before and I love that type of work. Thanks Chuck for the great content. Have a blessed day.
Thanks for the video Chuck! Stay safe sir!!
😂
For the coffee stop, how did you know you would have to take them off with the pallet jack and not wait for a forklift
Been there many times in the past so new the process
Thanks for the follow up! I work at Ryder and manage LTL for some customers and this is fascinating to see this side of it
If you wanna be efficient when backing toot ur horn three times for reverse 2 for forward and 1 for stop that’s how they do it on the railroad
Sending a picture of my dad’s truck. Took me along with him when I was younger. I new what I was gonna be when I grew up.😊
Is that a new trailer. Looks like somebody is being spoilt.
Hey Chuck, Mike from Toledo (092)
Always interesting delivering damaged freight and all the different reactions from folks calling for an Exception # sometimes becomes Intense. I have some customers that always write " subject to inspection" and others that don't ever look at the delivery. Always an Adventure and even though we do the same job daily every day is different. Excellent Job on the videos!
Mike you nailed it, same job but always different ways very day. Stay safe driver and keep up the great work!!
I’m on my 2nd week of P&D and it is definitely an adjustment, especially coming from linehaul. So far I’m loving it and the daytime hours are perfect for spending the max amount of time with my family as I possibly can. I don’t see myself going back to linehaul for quite a few years.
P&D gets better the longer you do it!! Stay safe driver!!
Every day is Always an Adventure. You will have lots of interesting stories to tell. I know I do.... Lol
Chuck you make it look easy, another great ride along Thank you! Have a safe and blessed week.
Some days are definitely better than others 😂
Like watching your videos and love those red rims on the trucks and trailers
Thanks Mike 👊🏻
Interesting video as always
I deliver food products in a refer trailer
You are a way better driver at parking those trailers than the JB Hunt drivers, Swift drivers and about 25% of the OTR drivers around.
I appreciate that DJ 👊🏻
Hey Chuck sorry for the late reply but this video is good. I’ve been doing a apprenticeship at a mechanic shop and it wears me out. But I still have time to unwind and come home and watch your videos. Who knew that mechanic work was so tiring on your body but I know it will get better as I get used to it. Thanks for these videos brother
Good for you Travis!! Much success sir!! 👊🏻
One shotter’s all day!
Cmon driver white car at 6 min stopped so you could make easy turn. Always acknowledge with a beep or hand signal
Just because you didn’t see it doesn’t mean a thumbs up wasn’t given. Some people and their comments 😂😂
I drive a swing-door dry van and it throws me when you back up to the dock without opening your doors first. P&D with swing doors would suck!
I agree no time for swinging doors in P&D 😂
Not sure if it works this way but if it were me I’d say hey guys text me when you get my trailer loaded in the morning. Then I’ll come in and start my clock. I don’t wanna sit around and wait on anybody.
I do multiple runs on most days. Never really wait
Do you ever go to Texas
I saw a estes driver
In tyler tx on wendsday
Making a delivery
When on the extra board yes.
Nice one
Truck Driver: "Have a good Monday!"
Me: "What if they don't want that kinda pressure?" 😂
30 yrs ago ( when I worked warehouse and docks) it was more "common sense" breaks., I couldn't, or wouldn't leave a truck at the dock (nor would I want to come back and see it still sitting there.,you get to some of these union places, seems they have to break after every 2 pallets
Did you recognize what company that was it was a couple of your guys beautiful trucks from Estes Express
Hay Chuck nice video. In my days at Yellow if you missed the dock backing in and had to pull up guys would leave quarters on your seat . Reason for that was leave a quarter on the seat and we will back it in for you . Lol was fun for us during the day . The guy with the most quarters would buy coffee at the stops coffee machines. Wow dating myself coffee was a quarter.
Be safe ✌️
Flatbed freight. I wouldn't have picked it up.
That central transport terminal once was a yellow trucking terminal as well previously
You make look like another day at the office.
Some days are definitely better than others. 😁👊🏻
Like a Boss!! 👊
😎👊🏻
👍
Hey Chuck,
Are your stops/routing loaded in your peoplenet eld device that you can use for gps? Or do you just go off of you knowing the area/customers?
Thanks for your time!
I was going to ask this too!
We go by knowledge and google maps, it takes many months of running a route until you just know all the customers
@@TheTulsaTrucker do they give you a certain order to pickup or deliver though? Or is it kinda up to you how you plan your route ??
@@truckercowboyed2638 no we as drivers decide how we are going to run the route deliveries and pick ups
How much does a driver start out at?
Depends on your location and experience
What is line haul ?
You drive from terminal to thermal or if it’s a bid you run out from your home terminal and then back home
Lol, sounds like this one contains a fail. Nice work!
Good information thanks!!
Hi Chuck, Finnish trucker here.
There's one thing i've been wondering. Do you not have side opening enclosed trailers over there? We love them here. You get all the benefits of an enclosed trailer and the flexibility of a curtain sider.
Definitely interesting to see how things work over there. So many similarities but yet everything's so different.
Cheers
No sir only rear.
Welcome back to the Vlog Chuck!
The new guys have a very good trainer for sure!
God Bless
👊🏻
Well that just made my day seeing you had uploaded a video. Thanks for bringing us along with you Chuck and I hope you take care and have yourself a great day. Best wishes from Plymouth UK
👊🏻
Chuck, do you need HazMat, doubles and tankers for Estes?
Yes sir
Thanks for sharing my ride Chuck! Love the videos and keep up the great work!
Thanks for sharing 👊🏻
Love your channel. I am hooked on these videos. You sound like such a nice person with a great personality. Keep up the good work.
I appreciate the follow 👊🏻
Hey chuck why don’t you just wait for them to unload if they have a forklift?
It speeds up the deliveries if I don’t wait on them to unload it. Depending on the freight I just take it off.
great video sir
I would trade my new International at 059 for that Volvo.
Volvos are great trucks, drive like cars 👍🏻
I’m a p&d driver for a company called new Penn trucking but yellow bought it out another awesome vid thank you for the great content
Are you in Newburgh NY?
@@damrgee8279 No Cinnamon New Jersey
@@damrgee8279 Do you work for new Penn at newburg
@@kellyshultz8103 no. I lived in Newburgh. Drove for Roadway and R/L before moving to florida
@@kellyshultz8103 drive for R/L down here. City
Good thing that steel was near the tail or it wasn’t moving!
That’s why it was on the tail 👍🏻
You are are a great driver full respect to you.
Thank you 👊🏻
Chuck, you would be a great driver instructor.
👊🏻
@@TheTulsaTrucker 👊
