  • Lifting and towing a tractor burned to a crisp!
    No use for fire extinguishers, this tractor is burned beyond recognition. By the time I arrive, fire department took care of the fire and left the salvage recovery to us. I responded with Hulk, my 50-ton rotator, to handle this wreckage. I started by splitting the tractor from the container.
    Once free, I was able to drag the tractor so I can rig it properly, then suspend it so my Landoll can back up underneath. Our environmental truck was also dispatched to assist CalTrans with the horrible mess left behind.

    You do a great job, but you need one more piece of equipment. One of those big sweeper/scraper/washer trucks like they use in those situations in Germany. It would help your environment crew a lot and reopen the road quicker.

    • @PepesTowingService
      @PepesTowingService  2 роки тому +4

      Sweepers aren't exclusive to Germany. I have no need for that as the scope of my cleaning services is basic /medium size spills. Anything over is considered Hazmat like this, and that requires a ton of stuff to be on. We just assisted cal trans with absorbent and some barrels before they took over. Zero desire for up scaling the clean up right now
