Like any other mega get your experience and move on. All are trash.

Thanks for the training man. 👍

Why would you do as you call a "teardrop"? If that chain loosens that hook comes off, there is absolutely nothing holding that coil to the trailer.

Code section states it will be 2 tie-downs in the first 10 feet, one tie-down for the next 10 feet and any additional 10 feet, AND one tie-down for a fraction of 10 feet. It also states the aggregate working load limit of the tie-down assembles must be equal to or at least half the weight of the article you are securing.

Honestly! I appreciate hall,I work for a well known flatbed company one of the top 3😂. Yet I still come here to learn. I might as well apply with y’all.❤

Ty for great knowledge god bless you

Passando para agradecer pelo teus vídeos, sao de grande importância para nos caminhoneiros, moro em São Paulo Brasil, tenho 63 anos e estou aprendendo contigo, um grande abraço meu irmão.

The boss asked me if I knew how to hook a trailer up, I said I did and I didn’t your video save me for sure. Thanks.👍🏼🤙🏼

I need a job I had my license for almost a year and can’t find a job I lm losing money and my family is like I went to school and knowbody wants to give me a chance I work hard I love to drive and learn someone please point me in the right direction I’m ready too lose it all 😢😢😢😢

They should load these coils on their side... with the "eye" facing the sky. It makes no sense to load them so that they can roll off the trailer.

Should never haul coils with a ratchet binder in the loose position.its possible it comes loose during transport

How do you let that bunk up in a Volvo 860

Video is helping me get ready with my trainer

Hey, I got a quick question. You mentioned on 03:15 that DOT says you hae to have 50% of the weight secure. Can you please elaborate on that? What about the other 50%? Thank you

Is that a three-quarter inch or a 1 inch PVC pipe?

Youuuuuu and youuuuuu you definitely from Baltimore 😂

Thank you so much for this brother. Doing flatbed 3 yrs but got my first trailer load today and needed this💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

Рахмет тебе мужик!

Tied it down like your family is driving right behind your load job well done safely secured.

when i saw this video , i asked my self , what denzel washington is doing on this video ?

ممكن سؤال من فضلك اخي؟؟؟

You’re wrong, maybe you should read the regulations before making such a video. The law requires 2 straps in the first 10 feet and 1 strap for each additional 10 feet of article length, they do not have to be spaced every 10 feet it only requires that it has the right number. If it’s against a bulkhead or other such restriction from forward movement then 1 strap or chain per 10 feet is all that is required. Of course this doesn’t include weight calculation which may increase the amount required for particularly heavy items. Even before the 2022 changes it was still 2 in the first 10 so what you’re telling people is still factually incorrect. Your company may have its own rules but that does not make it a legal requirement. Fmcsa dot dot dot gov go to the regulations then cargo securement for those who want to know the actual requirements.

Western express will hire you and they are all over California. They pay good on the flatbed side not sure about dry van.

😂😂😂😂

You gotta be from Baltimore.

Joe pro

Great video from this guy always on point. I watch him because I want to move to flatbed am just so sad to hear so much negativity about western express so in that aspect I will be going somewhere else but I love each video this man on he’s an awesome teacher, god bless you my brother.

There is a and old x traitor there there out of fort Dodge ia

glad to finally see a new video

First!

To be a professional you should know you don't hook your straps on your rub rails

this days most drivers just do straps many companies dont want to use chains no more I often got told dont you will damage material even dealing with pipe coated steel

Hello sir I'm India 🇮🇳 driveing job

Hii

Maybe am your next super star driver!😇

Mane cap

God blessed you, good man !

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing it, I learned a lot that I didn’t know.

Did you drop the tractor to reconnect

You can tell this guys from Baltimore by that accent

Western Express is one of the worst companies out there they will rip you off left and right do not go to Western Express it's a total rip-off

Its better more secure than less secure

So many things wrong with this video it’s incredible. Chain hooks should point up, NEVER down! DOT requires at least a thumbs width of thread left when done tightening for adjustment when traveling. I had to stop watching because of all the mistakes

Only mega fleets make this job more complicated then what it is then wonder why no one drives for them or why they can't keep drivers. a 65,000 lb coil only needs 2 coil racks most drivers use 3 for this I would use 4 due to the split 4*4's but a SMART non mega driver would go to lows or home depo and by 2 8' 4*4's only needing to use 2 coil racks.

Belly strap a load of wood

When you connect should your air bags still be dropped?

Not shown which is the first hose to connect the trailer. The supply or the input

It's kinda interesting in the comments how this is so professional and he's doesn't hook to the chains to the correct place on the trailer...the stake pockets are for stakes and the round things between the stake pockets are for chains.
