    Most important thing I've learned in flatbed, drink a lot of water.

    Who doesn't hate backing into warehouses with the sun in the mirrors? I've thought about getting a few of the rail securements, maybe after the company change. Awesome video again thanks for teaching us.

    Hey Driven and anyone else really, if your looking for tarps check out Joplin tarp, I’m not affiliated with him at all I am just impressed with the operation. They can custom make tarps, like my 8 foot drops have 4 rows of d rings which allows you to secure weird loads better. He also makes 30x30 machinery tarps and the best part is the prices! A little more expensive than Mercer but the quality is a lot higher. Just a heads up to anyone running around Joplin 44 or 4 state trucks.

    Some loads are a bugger to tarp. Great job. It easy doing vans but a flatbed{ stepdeck) is hard.

    I'm tarping my first machinery load today and I'm pretty nervous.
    It's 9'3" wide too. 17' long and 9' tall.
    Wish me luck.

    8' Tarps.......ugh. You know you've run out of good Karma when you get a load that calls for 8' tarps

    I have a question how do Truckers deal with sunshine? I am asking because I know depending on the time of day it is challenging in a car I can imagine being in a semi.
    You mentioned at the beginning you had to back in to your pick up location and had to deal with sunshine which is why I was wondering.
    I always look forward to your videos they are educational and a lot of fun

    • @DrivenTrucking
      @DrivenTrucking  5 років тому

      Thanks James! There’s not really a good way in that particular instance. Some trucks have external visors so between those, the internal ones, and the ability to raise and lower your seat a good bit, you can usually find a good spot.

    Non flatbedder question.... Why snap binders over rachet on this load?

    • @DrivenTrucking
      @DrivenTrucking  5 років тому +2

      I’m not crazy about the rachet binders that I have, they make nicer ones that basically lock in place. The ones that I have slowly on wind if they are not secured exactly correct so given the nature of the load, the snap binders do not come loose so I felt more comfortable

    • @suicidejockey801
      @suicidejockey801 5 років тому

      I still prefer snap over ratchet.

  • @jerrysantos6484
    @jerrysantos6484 5 років тому +1

    2 things.
    1) Cut those 20 footers into 10 footers. You will thank me for that.
    2) Throw those dam slap binders away!
    You are now a drop decker!
    Unless you want a ticket for failure to secure or loose your jaw!
    You preach safety yet you use slap binders?
    Bro.. Get rid of them slap binders.
    I do not want to see a video named:
    How I lost my jaw.
    How I got a concussion.
    How I lost my eye balls.
    How my arm got torn off.
    I have friends that are now suffering from all of that because of slap binders.
    Uhg!
    Please stay safe.

    • @DrivenTrucking
      @DrivenTrucking  5 років тому

      I hear ya, I need to get some better ratchets, I’m just not crazy about the ones I have

    • @jerrysantos6484
      @jerrysantos6484 5 років тому

      Get the ratchet 1/2 inch binders. Not the crappy 5/8 binders.
      They have a 12.5k load limit if you go from the trailer to the peice. 6.5k if used in a chain combo with 3/8 in chain or 1/2 in chain. Beleive me, much better off. And be able to kiss and eat in the long run.
