I got to try it this way on a Weyerhaeuser load this last week. Using the tarp machine to support the weight while you fiddle with the line up was something I never even considered before but wow what a difference it makes...thanks!! Now, if only we could get a machine that would pull them off, fold them, roll them and put them away....that would be something!!! Thanks man....

Your welcome!

I run out of Grayling, Michigan here from Weyerhauser about 3 times a week and I love their strap system they have. Saves throwing straps and makes tarping so much easier.

Just a heads up normally if the load is 5ft and under or even just 5ft and some inches steel tarps will cover it just fine. Save the ole back😂

Ours won't if it is the width of the deck and also the length of the trailer. There will be gaps. Maverick wants 100% of the load covered.

Lumber and gypsum loads are the impediments to any flatbed hauling by me. Maverick and TMC do not guys like me who are afflicted with acrophobia. ☹️ Perhaps I should send this video to recruiters to the aforementioned companies.

While I was watching this video I got a call that everything was confirmed and my drug test was negative I’ll be starting the classes with maverick in 3 weeks

Be patient at the shipper/receiver, keep your distance on the road, and watch for stupid drivers.

80mph? i thought Maverick trucks were governed to 65?

@thomastaylor2553 10 ай бұрын

They are governed at 65 but alow 70 for 30 minutes or 1 hour per 24 hours I believe

@BigTrucking 10 ай бұрын

Yep. 65, and as stated by @thomastaylor, we have PassSmart which allows for 70 mph for up to 2 hours a day. I don't have that turned on on my truck.

If it's only 81 miles, why tarp? Can't you just look at the weather to make sure there is no rain in the vicinity?

@R-UBBERD-UCK 10 ай бұрын

He said in the beginning he took the opportunity to make a video since some people were asking him about it. This would have been the time to make the video, not when you've got a 1000 mile haul and need to get your ass on the road. Also.. some shippers require you to tarp loads no matter what, even if you're just going across town.

@user-oi9wt9tv8h 10 ай бұрын

Maverick has very strict policy regarding tarping, if the load assignment states "requires tarp" you better put them on. While realistically yes, there's no tarp needed for such a short distance but if the consignee reports that you didn't tarp you're gonna be getting a call. We're not supposed to un-tarp until instructed to do so, partially for this very reason. The other main reason we have to wait is that the consignee is at fault and full risk of damaged or wet product if it rains as soon as they tell us to un-tarp. If we take it upon ourselves to un-tarp or not tarp in the first place then its at our risk if it decides to rain.

@BigTrucking 9 ай бұрын

It was required to tarp. Miles or weather didn't matter.

If you want to get fired don’t worry bout tarps retired from prime yr ago I saw many lazy drivers let go because of not tarping lds plus you get 100 to 150 extra for tarp pay
