You could put a hitch on the trailer and run a Mexican road train.

You had to physically try putting boat/trailer onto your trailer before you realized it wasn't going to fit? No tape measure, eh'?

All the things your saying the customer should be doing it right should actually be questions you should be asking them. It’s your job to get it right and you do it every single day where your customer does not. All you needed to ask was what is the length from the front of the trailer to the furthest point on the back, just like the ferry’s ask…

Moral of the Story: Don't assume & always ask questions.

Love the Channel man👌🔥

Man I love your videos

Are you double trailer certified if so you should get a trailer hitch mounted on the rear bumper of the trailer so you can just double trailer something like that to save you time and money

Remember, folks, when asking for a shipping quote, it can’t only be a-boat this long. Use your tape measure!

Do you have a hitch on the back of your gooseneck trailer some trailers got a square tube welding in where you can put a hitch receiver you could just pull the boat behind your trailer

Gotta love when the customer doesn’t grasp the concept of space and time LOL I run in to it all the time with the outfit I work for. They ask how long, how wide and how tall a piece we can move. I tell them just imagine it has to fit in this imaginary box, 8.5 feet wide, 8.5 feet tall and 60 feet long. If it doesn’t fit in that we can use a different trailer, if it’s a piece that is 12 wide my blanket permits will cover it, if it’s 11 feet tall and under 25 feet long I can use a double drop trailer but much more than that I’m going to need a week to order more permits. Then you show up and they have something that’s 69 or 85 feet long thinking that it’s OK to go because “Two out of three works, right?” LOL

Great video guys

Well bud lesson learned so now when your talking to the customers ask them to double check there measurements or what not. Other than that looks like it be a nice easy job to do but idk how you can sit in that truck like that 24/7 my damn back hurts after a few hours driving.

I guess get pictures or have the customer measure the item while on the phone. If the item isn't near them, they could still supply you with a stock photo and stock dimensions. Oh well. You always make it work out

Hi bro, G license can drive hotshot truck?

I would’ve asked for the Length of the boat and trailer combo. You could’ve took in the motor off would’ve been a pain in the butt but it would’ve gave you a little extra more room. But it probably wouldn’t have been enough !!

Why don’t you demand a picture of each and every load before accepting a job ?

Can't pull doubles behind a gooseneck in Canada? Here one would run over to a weld shop and have a hitch welded to the back of your trailer.

Here's one other thing when somebody ever gives you a model off of a boat look it up it will tell you this is the length of the trailer this is the overall length of the boat even knowing that the boat is 20 ft it will describe everything to you that you need to know I always look this up on Google on even trucks and cars and it will tell you the actual links linked

Make the customer show you the tape measure from bow to end of the motor with a photo

Can you please make a video talking about what to do and what not to do when starting hot shot hauling.

how are you still in business ????????

**Common questions answered** -Yes I measured it, but it was going to have to go either way. Declining this boat was not an option. - Doubles are only allowed up to a certain length in Quebec. My single trailer is already over and illegal in Quebec. - The boat was supposed to be loaded onto the neck of the trailer, with a loader, but because of the length, the engine would have hit the deck first and that wouldnt have worked at all.

Likes to talk with his hands while driving and pulling a heavy load

I have two vehicles I need towed ,I Was considering you.but that's OK

11ft overhang… yea was never gonna work. Shouldn’t be charging customer extra. You over committed.

Doesn't everybody know what a Silver Dolphin 19.5 is? I'm sure you asked him if it was on a trailer. And then how long the tongue is or is it a folding tongue.?! You are the Logistics Specialist and nobody knows more about the capabilities of YOUR equipment than you. If there is something that can cause a restriction or price difference, YOU should be the one to ASK the QUESTION! THEN: When you pick it up and you have seen the item, your acceptance is your guarantee that you can and will move the merchandise as negotiated. I'm not so sure you will have this "customer" again in the future.
