In this video my goal was to show you guys what my first week of hotshot trucking consisted of. I am new to this industry so I’m not here to teach necessarily, but to just document my journey and experiences with varieties of loads and lifestyle of being on the road. Enjoy and please give this video a like, comment, and most importantly subscribe to see more content from me.

I think the more straps the better. You won't ever lose a load that way!

@anthonydterry 2 года назад

Believe it or not i had a load shift on my trailer and snapped two of my straps so I agree with having more straps because you never know 🤷🏽‍♂️

@kevinwalters8280 Год назад

Piece of advice especially for them high cubes. Put a half twist (writing from facing out to the inside) on either side of those cubes to stop them from vibrating and cutting loose. Seen others not put the twist and cut their straps in half

Appreciate the advice man for sure ! Thank you!

Nice vid man for sure, I don’t know if you have a dispatcher or whatever but I don’t and I remember calling and booking my first load. They wanted me there that evening but I was like I can’t it make there right now and got an appointment for the morning. All of that just so I could double and triple, quadruple check all my equipment. Man I was so nervous 😂

@anthonydterry Год назад

Yo I definitely understand man 😂 I was triple checking all my equipment too before I left out for my first load 😂 can never be too safe !

@2020HotShotTruckingLLC Год назад

The minimum is 2 straps in the first 10 feet and 1 strap for every 10 feet after that. If that requires 3 straps, I throw at LEAST 4 straps. I always go above the legal minimum. On long narrow loads like that, always throw like 2 belly wrap straps - they can be 2" straps on something like that. When you chain your containers, try to hook the chains on the stake pockets or spools and put the binder (snap binders work best, especially since the load is solid) on the chain where it crosses from one side of the trailer to the other. That ratchet binder handle can rotate and damage the load or someone's car, not to mention if it sticks out past your rub rail you are oversize (and without a permit). Stay safe out there!

@anthonydterry Год назад

Appreciate that advice ✊🏽 you be safe as well!

@2020HotShotTruckingLLC Год назад

@@All-Miles-Matter I use bungee's, but if possible wrap the excess chain around the handle and use the bungee to keep the slack chain tight. The chain can't bounce loose and the handle can't move with the chain around it. I have had handles move when held only by a bungee. That's why I like my ratchet binders to be near the deck where the handle is tight against the deck. If you have it positioned properly, the binder can only tighten itself, not loosen. If you can raise the handle, reverse the binder so raising the handle off the deck will tighten the binder.

@All-Miles-Matter Год назад

Finally, someone new that has some damn sense. Just a tip, use a belly strap on long narrow loads like that. Never trust the shippers banding. If that band breaks, you lose tension on the straps and on the highway she goes! Belly strap anything like that. A belly strap holds everything together in case those bands break. Good luck on your journey.

@anthonydterry Год назад

Appreciate the advice man I will definitely be belly strapping from now on. Still learning as I go ✊🏽

You can also loop your load at the end to keep stable... just remember to reverse each end and and one straight across the middle ..

Lol 6 months later still waiting

@jaimegarza7835 Год назад

I don’t know if anyone’s mentioned anything to you but if you pull enough of your strap out and just kinda throw it over the top let it land on the deck you can do all your straps at one time on one side and on the other side hook them all up and then come back and tighten them down also you may want to get some winches on the other side and have alternate winches if you’ve got 10 on this side I would put 10 on the other side to help keep your load from shifting from left to right cause it does happen especially when you haul pipe and put a 1/2 twist in them. Good luck ..

@anthonydterry Год назад

Thanks for the comment Jaime I appreciate the advice ! I will start to alternate my straps to prevent load shifting.

Appreciate it man ✊🏽 and congratulations what type of setup you running?? I will be uploading a video on how I found a carrier to lease on and I’ll explain how I like MDS. Thanks for the comment!

@texastarheel3141 Год назад

hey, young blood, always keep your tension at the front of your trailer and not on the ground, it's very easy to leave behind. also if you keep it in the front you will never loose it because I developed the good habit of keeping your tools in one place

12:45 the only thing I might have done different is maybe do 2 belly roll straps to keep them squeezed together... Even though they have the bracing

@anthonydterry Год назад

Yeah that’s true 🤔 great recommendation!

@jpeacock7191 Год назад

New driver here been out now about 3 weeks Do I have to hit the cat scales after every load? So far I've only done it twice because I thought I was overweight

@anthonydterry Год назад

Not necessarily. Every time I go to pickup a load I always ask the shipper what’s the weight even tho it says it on the rate con I just reassure it matches up. I only hit the scale once.
