As an owner op myself, I love when I get to a job, and the ground crew says “we’re not ready yet, will let you know when we will start, and an hour goes by!
MY big Brother drove over the road ,he taught me when you pass a truck don't slow down, don't ride along the back half, and don't tailgate if you can't see mirrors they can't see you.
Here in Wisconsin dump trucks must not be required to have mud flaps. You NEVER see one with any behind the drives. Talk about stone chips in windshields...
I wish people understood that when we’re making a right turn we need both lanes and that whenever we’re waving them to go we’re not just being nice we need the room lol I’m a firefighter and I drive our Engine and people just don’t get it
❤❤❤I absolutely enjoy your channel. I’m a retired Health Sciences Educator and 76 years. Old. I loved my career. With that said, I have forever wanted to own and drive a dump truck. Live tge work you and your husband are doing.
I don’t love residential job sites. Too little room, to many things to hit, and nails and screws waiting to puncture your tires! On the other hand, as an operator I enjoyed loading trucks. Very satisfying.
Dauminique, it's been 98 here all day and will be that way for the weekend. The heat index has been around 110. So come on down to the southeast and you can get 90 plus. LOL Just make sure the A/C on the dump truck is good and charged up. 😁
Thank you for your videos I've done what you are doing for three years after leaving military service in NC What you're doing is harder than you let on God Bless💞
As one who drove a dump truck for a while, and one who has had a windshield busted by a rock off a dump truck (saw the rock come off the truck and bounce up), I get pissed when I see a truck hauling without the tarp up…but I’m on the east coast. I noticed when you had a load of dirt that there wasn’t any dust coming off it as you went down the road. Here, it blows everywhere. Sand is the worst…I’ll back way off so I don’t get blasted.
It was a 100 degrees in my home town and we had a garbage truck that bounce you over to passengers seat if you didn't have a seat belts on the bounce truck I ever drove great video keep up the good work God bless from GA
Beware what you wish for. It's in the 80's and 90's now in PA and we really did need some rain. Well? Now we have seemingly endless thunderstorms every day and night. Humidity is maxed. So, it's hot and humid. And we had another couple days of Canadian smoke. Maybe July will be better
Do all your trucks run all the time, or do you use what the customer wants? I think you have a couple four axle trucks and pup trailers , and a six axle seven axle dump truck? If you count the strong arm on the back. I don’t think i would buy a strong arm for a dump truck unless I had a big fleet of truck’s because I hear the strong arm tires can wear out faster especially if your hauling long distances
Like the load and dump clock in this video next time you do a job like this one with a lot of loads you should put a load counter on the screen somewhere..happy birthday
Hi, I love your videos. Just noticed how you are fighting the cb mic. , When I was driving I hung my mic. On small bungee cord so I could reach it to talk then just let go of it when I ran out of hands to drive. Just a thought that I hope helps 🙏❤️
Happy Birthday Dauminique tomorrow and all your wishes come true. 🎂🍨🎉🍺 Hope you and your family have a great 4th of July 🇺🇸 🎇 Great video I've myself been into some tight spaces I have to say that was tight and a big hill. It's been hot here in NC dealing with the smoke and haze from Canada.Take care . 🙋😎🎉🇺🇸🎇
Fuel that thing up and come on down here to the Gulf Coast of Texas and I will give you about 12 yards of 100 degree weather for your Birthday and you can take it back up north with you . We are so hot down here but at least the High that's been sitting on top of Texas is keeping the Hurricanes away .
Hai Dauminique, Was weer een mooie vlog, mooie beelden met camera vanaf de bovenkant van de bak waardoor je goed kan zien hoe gaat bij laden /lossen gaat de omgeving is ook mooi👌👌 gr carel uit Nederland
I don't think I've ever seen a video where your box gets completely full. It looks like this job could have been done in 5 loads instead of 7 if the box was filled more. I know when you work by the hour that would not be a good thing, though.
@@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver I realize that. But if a box this size reaches the weight limit before it is ever full why so big in the first place? Are the limits for residential areas like this less than highways? I know different materials weigh different amounts. Coal weighs less than dirt. You should see what they do to trucks hauling coal in the Appalachian area.
@@snowblowerman5115 Washington weight limits must be less than Kentucky and Tennessee. I see more dirt and rock in dump trucks here than in Washington.
146$ per hr. is pretty good pay, for your 4 axle that we here in Wis call a Triax, We get about 90 to 110$ for our 5 axle, what we call a Quad. Thats with fuel at about $3.70 to $4.25 per gal. Do U get more when U pull your pup trailer?
@@richardgreenlaw1442 that’s weird. How can any vehicle be liable for rocks that end up on the road? I had a shattered windshield in a t800 in 2016 from a rock that came off the tire of a Prius and it is what it is. I didn’t hunt the car down and make them pay for the windshield. 🤦🏼♀️
This year it's going to make it 30 years that I have been in construction and I have been in every aspect, from framing to grading to supervising and managing and yes, also the parking that you cut up lol but one thing, oh yes, not only am currently driving truck, but I have also worked around trucks the entire 30 years and I can not believe how small your loads are! Why is that?
I have a question for you. Why haul dirt into that site and haul dirt out? Why didn't they use that pile of dirt as fill? It looked like what you were hauling in.
You need a strategy for dealing with tailgaters. I will brake slowly and slow down to about ten mph below the speed limit, drive that speed for 10 seconds and then speed back up. If they don't get it, I will do it again for 15 seconds. Third time I will brake harder to 15 MPH below the speed limit and drive that speed for 30 seconds, by then they usually get it.
Well I can tell you I wish it was your temperature here and you can have our temperature because the heat index has been around 100 to 115 love you're veidos I hope y'all have a awesome 4th
You don't have to tarp after you load? In Texas you have to tarp the load before you leave the job site or pit. Because if something flew out you were responsible for any damages
90F degrees in Western Washington!!! Are you insane? The webbing between my toes starts drying out when it hits 80F. Thank the gawds that rarely happens.
Dauminique, Gramps here! Those short dumptrucks don't have JakeBrakes on them? Also, I was wondering, I'm all for equality, and women working in what was generally a man's profession, because I've known quite a few women over the years, who have gone, not only in the trucking profession, but other professions as well, and have kicked butt, but have you ever come across the "equal barrier" since you've been trucking?... 🚛 🤔🙃🙂👍
Meh, it's easy. Want a backing challenge, come work for a road department. When we pull shoulders we drive backwards down the road while the belt loader loads us. So you are not only backing down the road, your riding the edge of the road as well. Then you got to look out for mailboxes and signs all the while keeping your truck against the belt loader which is driving down the road. And then when we do everyones favorite, chip seal, we are actually being drug backwards by the chip spreader. That gets real fun.
Do you work year around? I live In the Portland area of Oregon and I was told that here unless you have a five or six axle truck you might have a harder time working all year long . Do you think that is true in the Seattle area ?
Have watch most of your videos and I'm curious regarding the profitability of truck ownership compared to working for someone else. In your opinion, has it been more profitable as a driver for a company or owning your own truck? Maybe it's too early to tell as you continue to grow your business. I think that there are a lot of viewers who might be on the fence regarding truck ownership. Enjoy your day and be safe...
My truck is not set up like east coast trucks. It’s set up to pull a pup. It’s shorter because it doesn’t need to be 21 feet because it can’t be 80,000.

I totally understand what you mean by bouncing all around without any load on your truck. Totally agree with you on other drivers being on your tail
Thank you for your videos
I've done what you are doing for three years after leaving military service in NC
What you're doing is harder than you let on
God Bless💞
I like the load and dump clock
Love the shiny bucket on that old Hitachi. That old girl has moved some material.
That's a 6 wheeler load where I'm from.....you go girl....what an easy load and you get that change per hour??
I watch you working that truck, and part of me misses being in one. Thanks for sharing these videos. :)

That Hitachi needs a bigger bucket. It is using a teaspoon size.
Baby load in dat truck
Come on down to Texas. Dallas, Ft Worth, You can have all the 105* to 117* heat index you want..

If it’s filled to the top she’d be overweight by a lot been there done that

Easy day. Oh well, a hundred years from now you want even think about it😃🇺🇲❤️ hey Bobby.
What’s the best part of your job and the worst part. Best wishes sucess always.
hello dauminique it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy
Well you wanted eight but you got seven i think it is still a fair days work up up 👍👍

You should add the construction vehicle sign saying follow at your own risk
Lol I’m not doing that
@@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver it will save money on broken glass claims from people following too closely
@@richardgreenlaw1442 we’re not liable for broken glass. Rocks on a road surface are a road hazard.
@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver maybe not where you're located. Here is totally different in New Hampshire. And those that are law suit happy people

Trucking is by weight, not volume.
Thanks for the videos, muchly appreciate them. SInce the radiator changeout, is the engine temp running any cooler?
You want hot weather come to the midwest we got plenty
I have a question for you. Why haul dirt into that site and haul dirt out? Why didn't they use that pile of dirt as fill? It looked like what you were hauling in.
Different kind of material
Great clouds, beautiful day in the PNW. Wear your sunscreen & "burp" the radiator.

It’s WA, they don’t care.
95 in Alabama today par for the course for wheat harvest.
I worked on Bush turnpike from interstate 30 down to I20 back in 2012/2013
Well I can tell you I wish it was your temperature here and you can have our temperature because the heat index has been around 100 to 115 love you're veidos I hope y'all have a awesome 4th
I like 115 lol
You don't have to tarp after you load? In Texas you have to tarp the load before you leave the job site or pit. Because if something flew out you were responsible for any damages
Not sure why the loader was only using 1/2 his bucket and taking so long to load you?
A lot of good looking W900L's working that job, is that on your wish list for your next truck? Or will you be sticking with a T800/T880?
Weather looks beautiful up there
Been over a 100 degrees here in Texas
Is ther regularlion on how much they can loud up your truck??? Dosent luck very full 🤔
I'm wondering that you don't have to tarp the lods there in Washington?
90F degrees in Western Washington!!! Are you insane? The webbing between my toes starts drying out when it hits 80F. Thank the gawds that rarely happens.
Lol it’s hits 90 every summer.
How does a job site communicate with you about stopping, moving up while loading, etc.? What radio system? How do you know what frequency to use?
CB
Truck sounds good .😊
The crack in your beautiful rigs windshield 😢
What did you do, when you came back from working dumb truck. ❤😊
Dauminique, Gramps here!
Those short dumptrucks don't have JakeBrakes on them?

Great job Great work 👍
What are those units being made from!! 'Cardboard?
In Miami they get 40-50 an hour to haul asphalt!!!
Lol if you do that you’re losing money
Who controls the volume of dirt goes in the truck?
We would start at 4:00 am and work until 7:00 pm
Happy Birthday Enjoy
What can you gross on your tri-axles out there? We're about 63000 here Quads are 73000 but you can't scale that.
Depends on the axle spread
Happy Birthday
Do get more with your trailer?
They dont do full loads on your truck?
My drop axels lock up i hate it then boss gets mad at me
Not a trucker but watch a lot of others. Can't Bobby hook up you mic so it hangs down and you're not fumbling with getting it off the dash?
I don’t want it hanging down 🤷🏼♀️
Possible time-lapse during loading and unloading?
How come you didn't use your 2nd dump when you were down with the radiator problem ?
No solo work available
Good for you keep it up
Where are you from?
Sorry for being late . How long does your bed have to be before you can have your tandem drivers and 2 lift axles ?
Dang you are a good driver! I could never back up like that. :) Thank you and have a good week. By way why do you not trap your loads?
Meh, it's easy. Want a backing challenge, come work for a road department. When we pull shoulders we drive backwards down the road while the belt loader loads us.

our temp today was 99 feels like temp was 118 you can have it
I’ll take it

How to apply for dump truck job. I'm from India 🇮🇳
Very good Video 👍
Dauminique, are you going to wear a sleeveless beyond dirt shirt when it gets hot?
No
How many yards are you dumping here...?
Truck typically hauls about 12 legally. Dirt changes weight due to water content though.
The most two unseen things in traffic is motorcycles and dump trucks
4-wheelers just don’t know. They completely have n.o. i.d.e.a that trucks, RV, whatever, are big, need room to turn, time to brake, etc.
What length is your dump body? Where I am tri axles are usually 19-21ft range. A lot of tri axles in the US look shorter.
My truck is not set up like east coast trucks. It’s set up to pull a pup. It’s shorter because it doesn’t need to be 21 feet because it can’t be 80,000.
@@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriverDoes your business do excavation also?
Chris Love You
Why dump at the same place where they have a pile they are taking away?
That’s topsoil, I’m bringing in structural.
