Hey dude Just want to say I like your videos. It's about time. Someone put up what a garbage man does or R basically roll. If you need help with anything or any advice, I drove roll off for 30 years. I love It just shoot me a line. Keep up the good video and enjoy. Stay safe and keep up all the good work, buddy.
Love these day in a life videos. Great hassle too! As for the cordless impact, I’m with you…can’t beat the pneumatics with class 7 and 8 trucks, especially with 10 stud/lug wheels.
Superb Dave, excellent content. This is what makes YT so watchable. It is the mundane stuff. What we get from it is....what you do is a very demanding and difficult job. It is very interesting and educational to see what is involved. Your new pad looks brilliant!!
Since you love Stewart’s so much you have to get the meatball sub. I too am in upstate ny (Adirondacks) Stewart’s is definitely my go to in the am, great videos btw. Keep up the great job.
Hey Dave get yourself a good set of Milwaukee cordless power tools, they offer a 5-year warranty plus they have a charger that can charge up to six batteries. It's a very nice unit , make sure you get the Milwaukee batteries. Do not, I repeat. Do not buy aftermarket batteries. Make sure you buy the good lithium ion batteries for your power tools....
Guy in my town that makes dumpsters by cutting down shipping containers--adds some bracing and supports and sells them MUCH cheaper than regular dumpsters !!
Those roll off trucks always seem like they have a lot more manual work involved in comparison to the hook lifts we see over this side of the pond. Also interesting you can still 'Scrap' a fridge/freezer over there. Here they are now considered hazardous waste and scrap yards won't take them. You have to pay to have them sent to a recycling facility to be degassed.
Yea there definitely more work involved with the roll off trucks, if I fill a 30y with refrigerator and a/c units plus stoves I get around $400 in scrap
Hey Dave, loving your vids lately! A little side note: I think you are using your drone in "D-Cinelike" or some other flat color profile. The footage looks a bit dull, hazy and a lot less vibrant than the Gopro footage, or whatever main camera you are using. You should play around with the settings and set it to standard and also you could add a just tiny little bit of contrast and saturation to match both cameras better. Once you figured it out you can save a preset and just apply it on all the drone footage. Won't take a lot of extra time that way. Cheers
You ever dump at a landfill? Around my area the landfill is roughly 35 miles away so 99% of the time the trucks go straight to landfill to dump. We do have a small transfer station, but mostly that is used by the general public to dump so they dont have to drive to the landfill.
Dave is the exact definition of a hard working man. The world needs more hard working men I can tell you that. Also I am not a big fan of american cars, but god damn they trucks are something else ... very very sexy.
Life of a bin truck f*cked tires and more f*cked tires, you are lucky you dump mostly at a transfer station I was in the local landfill up to twice a day 5 days a week. I used to contract haul for Waste Management when they needed it so I was in their yard good place to get a nail in the tire. Nice you have a bigger yard it will make a big difference/improvement more room to work.
someone I know who has a company with trucks that work with sandblasting. He had an accident in a truck on the highway, and hit a bridge pillar because a front tire on the truck blew. he will never work again.
You think a 26ft semi rolloff trailer would work for a rolloff business over a straight truck?I have a semi,rather pull different trailer than buy a straight rolloff that can only haul dumpsters
Would you ever get a pickup truck style roll off (F550, Ram 5500 etc) for those smaller dumpsters? I don't know if it might be cheaper in the long run vs a full size rig and would be easier in more rural, tight areas.
How much does your insurance run thinking of getting me a older truck in good condition. I could get a swap loader but missing out on lots of 30s right now running 15s and 20s
Do you think an Isuzu NPR or similar with a hook lift and 12-15yd dumpsters on a single axle class 4 cab over truck would be a good truck to start into dumpsters with? I see you have a similar cab over single axle in the background of this or one of your other videos. I got out of junk removal a while back, but this is inspiring to get back into it but with dumpsters.
