Hey man do you need a CDL for the setup?
for his international yes he does
What do you charge for live loads?
Man with all that rain we had I got stuck for the first time ever in 4 years. Had to call a tow truck. Ended up losing a job right after because they wanted it the grass. I told them I just paid a tow truck to pull me out at another place and was not going through that again.
That has got to be the worst way to load with that type of machine should have a grapple rake way less dirt would be in thqg lod
Iff you make in texa you make in other states
What auction?
Call that day FAFO man ouch
I bought my first gooseneck and when I went to pick it up my truck was already hooked up and it was late so everyone had gone home except the new girl ( needless to say she didn’t know how to show me that’s why I’m watching) thank you for the video and your logo and business name is awesome
I would skip johmmy and charles and id take my letter straight to the mayor because most times youll get somewhere the mayor overrides charles and johnny . if its a closed city then if someones house or business burns down who does the demo and removal . ive rented dumpsters plenty of times and has someone who does commerical renovations i try and find the best price for my clients sometimes a dumpster company will say if you rent 4 dumpsters we will give you the 5th free . also i thought if you own the land its private property so your allowed to put a dumpster on it has long has its not on a city street or city lane and i never knew the city has the right to tresspass on private property .

Couldnt catch the live tonight, watching it now. Chat gpt is badass! It does all of our social media. I make all my posts for social media in one day, schedule the posts, and it posts to facebook every day!
honestly picking up the bin would have helped out having some weight on the truck
always try to hit it right the first time you have a good chance to get out .The more you jocky around the worse it gets always try keeping the truck facing out in case you need to be pulled out and never include the neighbors and i mean never .I tell our drivers that all the time stay off the neighbors property
Don't know if it would be worth it or not for yall, but look into a Tire Boss system. I used to run a concrete mixer and we had them on all of our trucks. You can deflate your tires when entering a job site or wherever where it's muddy and you know the ground is soft and get way better traction. And then it uses the trucks air to inflate them back up when going back on the road. Also let's you know if a tire is leaking bad or not
My biggest concern is how we are going to survive all these financial and political crises, especially the power struggle in the US. The government has really made things difficult for its citizens and we cannot just sit by and suffer the consequences of bad governance🙏...
I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $400k passively by just going into crypto investment , and I don't have to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my finances remain secure. So I really don't blame people who panic.
I am new to the crypto world and don't understand how it really works. A friend told me trading with a professional trader is the best strategy for beginners and busy investors, but for months now I've been making so research and haven't found any.please any recommendations
Thanks to Mrs. Pamela Janet

What size is your truck?
This is a 2500 HEMI gasser
@ thanks. I just bought one of those recently. I plan on retiring in about a year or so. Kind of curious if this could be done as a side hustle.
So on your big rig truck when your cans full how much can you haul ? How do you know every time you’re not going over weight limit with different types of loads ?
What if you have an 4500 or 5500 truck with GVWR 19500 and a trailer with GVWR 10000?
You are way over and definitely need a CDL & DOT in Texas and most other states if not all!
@@AmericanAFDumpstersall states, it's federal
This has already been in court and they lost! Sixth circuit court. Started searching after my city sent me a cease and desist letter in not only the city but my entire county! Considering getting all my local companies to file a civil lawsuit against them after finding this. www.honigman.com/media/site_files/265_imgimgWoolstrumA406320.pdf
It is amazing how often this comes up and has to be explained. You did good with showing where to find the info and how it’s factored. The short explanation is, if you’re in a 10k trailer state then just get a CDL. If you’re not then stick with a 3/4 ton and a single wheel two axle trailer and you are fine. If you want to get the “big boy” truck and trailer, than be a big boy and get your CDL and DOT numbers. Not being rude, but so many guys want the big truck and big trailer to haul more weight but don’t want the license to do so, there is no loop hole.
Well done brother!
Do you need a dot number for a combination weight, pick up truck and Trailer intrastate for under 26k? Or do you only need a dot # if your truck goes over 10,000 lbs Does the trailer weight matter for having a dot #?
In Texas the truck itself over 26k or truck and trailer combined over 26k is what determines needing DOT and CDL
I love you man thank you
10.000 plus 14,000 equals 24,000 so that leaves you with a 2,000lb capacity for trailer payload. If you get stopped and weighed with a payload of 2001 pounds, you will be over weight and or need a CDL
No 24k is maximum combined weight in your example. If your registered or licensed for 24k then 24001# is over weight. Usually you have a bit more wiggle room due to accuracy of scales.
@5eyes1294 That is absolutely not correct.
Im sorry @5eyes1294 but that is not correct. GVWR or GCVR is not actual weight. Its manufacturer recommended rate including any payload. To get what how much payload you can haul legally, find out the empty weight if the truck and trailer you are going to haul with. Go get the weight at a certified CAT scale at a truck stop near you. In my case, the wrapped 2500 and the hooklift trailer weigh 15,500 empty. Then take your GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating) of both your truck (10,000 for me) and your trailer (16,000) and COMBINE them. 10,000 + 16,000 =26,000 Subtract your empty weight of both your truck and trailer (15,500 in my case) from your GCWR (26,000) and the difference is your payload. 26,000 - 15,500 =10,500 My payload capacity for my truck and my hooklift trailer is 10,500 lbs
Just keep in mind Texas does per axle weigh in. They try to find a way to screw us over.
Finally ppl understand gvwr alone or combine doesn’t define that’s your actual weight of course if you derated your trailer you can do wonders even with a dually truck thanks for explaining since I have not make a video but shortly will en español wey , god bless you brother
