Ok side note; I've worked in a wearhouse, doing order picker & packing yeah you need to have " your work space" at a proper hight. When does a trucker " coat" the inside of their dump truck's bed ? Is that for hot asphalt 🤔
Ok I've seen them up close, but wasn't sure of it's proper name. Ty for that bit if knowledge 📝👍☕😎
I’ve been driving trucks my whole life and have always prided myself on being a professional. You young lady are just that. Women are good operators because they don’t have big egos
I agree with your assessment completely
They also take better care of your truck than men do. I actually prefer to hire women for that reason
@@flyboy6876 II don't know about that. I know several guys who are fanatical about keeping their stuff clean and maintained. That's all about the individual.
Amen
I did what you are doing for 20 years, loved it
glad to see the truck back in action again , taking on jobs where ever and whenever (within reasonable times) i hope you get on a good summer construction job hauling many loads . can't wait for the next video
Glad you are finding work. Hopefully the summer will be as busy as you want. Be safe.
Grinding or milling, or we'd call it scarifying in Scotland where I live. Whatever; it's the same basic machine taking the surface off the tarmac and leaving a rough surface that new hot cure asphalt will stick to well. Here we'd have you sit in neutral, h/b off and the machine would push you forward. This is the first time I've seen this process from the headboard rather than from standing at street level.
My leg gets sore just watching this. Riding that clutch for hours on end while milling sure does a number after a while.
soft feet brother
Very cool video! So, first, the driver on the radio commented what I was thinking. I never saw a grinder operator swing the conveyer from side to side while loading before, especially in such a confined area, plus having cars so close. I'm really surprised that they didn't close off one section of the lot at a time and grind section by section. Safety on a construction site is usually the first consideration. I drive trucks in Oregon, and one of the many features of a diesel-powered truck is the fact that you can put it in gear and idle along without touching the throttle. Great for backing or going forward in tight spaces. Love it! You also answered another question I had by simply dumping the load in a recycling yard. I didn't realize they could recycle such material. This was a fascinating video. I really appreciate you for taking the time to share it. Thank you very much, and safe travels. Love your videos! 😊
I have been documenting some construction in my area. There have been several placements and removals of asphalt during the construction. It is really amazing to see all of the steps that have to be gone through to create a new roadway!
1 honk stop 2 honks move many honks full. I see the end as it's loading just fine. Easy work. 😁👍
First time I saw asphalt grinding was US 30 in Indiana. A driver asked on CB what was happening. I told him they were recycling, picking up the potholes and putting them back down somewhere else. 😊😊
The 1 gentlemen mentioned about him swinging his boom left to right in all my years I have never seen that done and I said it when I was 21 years of age and I'm now 53 never seen that done before
A good milling machine operator will hang a flag at the end of the conveyor sticking out to the side so you can see where the end of the conveyor is at so you can load your truck evenly and not accidentally get too far ahead of the conveyor.
That’s how we do it in upstate New York
@@OldTrucker958 yup. Same over here in Vermont
N.H. in the house again..I've done quite a bit of milling over the years..some with my triaxles and some with my dump trailers (the ones that scare you !). Parking lots are always more challenging, especially with a trailer. As someone said, some guys will run a rod out the side at the end of the chute with a flag on it so you can see where it's at. At night they'd have a little light on it. There are good ones to work with, and there are some that have lousy communicating skills between truck and crew. But hey--you did awesome as always !! I hope you have a good summer, and I'll be watching and liking !
No flags needed. Just experience.
We take grindings like that, crush and screen them and use the material as an economical alternative to hot mix paving. It works well and a great way to recycle :)
Nice work Dauminique. You're better than a lot of the ones I drive with. Ah a Wirtgen medium miller. Our company used to have the big one. We called it snaggletooth. Because some of the sockets couldn't hold the teeth well. We still have the other big one. Odd that they use the horn for movement. Our machine, as well as the contract machines we hire, have a 6-foot rod mounted on the side of the boom. It's mounted at the end with an orange flag. It sticks out and is visible in the driver's mirror. Most just start with the flag at the gate. Let it come up around 4 feet. Then pull forward to start at the back again. The op uses one beep when he's stopping and raising the head. And 2 beeps when you're full. When we're using the 6-foot head. If it's a 4 inch or deeper cut. We get loaded in about 2 minutes. But that's just for interstates and main roads. Developments like that are a big pain. It's a rat race where even the rats don't wanna be there. : )
Any milling machine that I've been in front of they have orange flags on either side of the conveyor belt so you can pace your speed with the grinder. Makes it much easier.
Nice see you back on the road again, little sister..🤙👍🙏🫶😎
That is a cold mill asphalt planer made by a German company, Wirtgen. Very high end, very accurate machine. We called it milling asphalt.
This came back up on my feed again. I always enjoyed milling. The biggest milling haul I ever worked on was on I-85 in the north bound lane that ran by the B.M.W plant down around Spartanburg S.C. pretty much cake work except it was an all night haul and traffic was everywhere.
Glad you are doing what you do best I lick your no nonsense driving no drama work
Another great video. Its a cool view from your box seeing the conveyor shoot the asphalt. Thanks Dauminque!🤙
I just did this for my township that I work for..the Milling machine had an orange flag on the side of the belt so you knew if it was in line w your tailgat you were always in the right spot..
Great to see you back on the road again
Great video of D.C. I have not seen any of the town since kids were maybe 8-9 years old which was probably wow 40 years ago. Very good relaxing time for your trail family. Thanks
When i dove in Pennsylvania we called it a milling machine i love your videos thanks so much ❤❤
how can they do all that grinding with all those cars in the way?
Hi Nikki…. Truck sounds GREAT!!!!… Happy that your back in the saddle doin your thing!!!😅😅😅😂😂
I'm glad you got your truck back and up and running
I have a stupid question but here in Ontario dump strucks usually have a shield that covers the bed when fully loaded it appears from somewhere is the back and ends at the top above the cab
In BC most of them now use Wirtgen machines with arrows and colored signals which makes it easier
Good to know grinding (we call it milling in W. KY) is done elsewhere with hot traffic. Milled a local Interstate a few weeks back with only orange barrels between us and hot traffic. We have ground guides instead of horn beeps. Really felt for him because he was an arms length from traffic.
I do this kind of work in Las Vegas usually with a 7 axle dump truck aluminum box
I work as a state highway construction inspector, and I would love to have you on one of my jobs. You would be shocked how many drivers cannot drive a truck in front of a mill. We do miles of milling in the projects and it gets so frustrating. The worst thing is that we do it under lane closures, with flaggers and pilot cars so the crappy truck drivers always hold up traffic.
In San Diego we call it a Asphalt Grinder. It does do that. 😊
Thanks liked that camera. Be safe!
Grinding was a pay item on some of my jobs which I subbed out. But it was a hard part of the job to figure actual costs. I was paid a lum sum fee where I imagine you were hopefully paid by the hour. Thanks for the video.....showing me why I enjoy retirement.
Great to see you hauling again .. What do they do with the grindings ?
Hi Duaminique, thank you for another great video. You are so girl next door and real that's what makes you so good.
Nice to see you back at it noticed that you have some plywood on your driver side of the bed needs some attention, bet you’re glad to be back in the truck stay safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🌹
Brings back memories spent many a night under a grinder working with prs
Hai Dauminique, was weer een mooie video met mooie beelden vanaf de cabine van het laden van asfalt, was wel lastig het verkeer eromheen, ende chauffeur van de freesmachines was niet altijd duidelijk, ik heb ervan genoten bedankt ervoor gr carel uit Holland
I do this work in England. Driving a tipper under a planer.
I've use lakeside back in the day. Good to see them still going
The smartest option would be to close down the parking lot at least till they done the asphalt milling. But then again I won't forget the time I was with my mom a while back at the car dealership and they done the milling in the rain withe dealership still open. I think the milling machine was a kitty cat but can't remember the model right of the top of my head.
We call it milling in the northeast Pennsylvania and Jersey,Its called a milling machine
Glad to watch ya once again…. Kudos … you have balls of steel young lady … stay safe
We call it cold milling on the east coast Canada 🇨🇦 NB province I've seen them post a guy at your tailgate to give you direction, too much honking, I'd get confused on the one/two honks guy twitching alot on shoot.
We use our milling sand mix them with smaller stones and tarry oil and pave our backroads with it. We call it pug milling
great to see you driving and posting again. loading grindings from a profiler can be a bit challenging to get the load even in your box.you hope you have a good operator.looking forward to more vids.keep haulin girl
When they do apartment complexes around here they either do half at a time or all of it. If your cars aren’t out of the way. They get towed.
Glad I found your channel, interesting to see how other countries work..Chriso from Western Australia
Dauminique was nice to see you back driving your truck again also thank you for the shirts will be ordering more thank you.
Live watching you because you never have a bad attitude even when you are in a sticky situation
See you next time and safe trucking
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada this is the second episode I have watched with you always a learning curve and definitely not a profession for everyone, takes alot of skill and patience thanks for the presentation 🇨🇦 😊, your curly hair reminds me of our Canadian singer Amanda Marshall her's is really think and long her father is Jamaican and her mother is white so just thought that you might find interesting
VERY impressed with your driving and maneuvering skills Dauminique.
As an owner operator.....started out just doing dirt work.....switched to asphalt and milling 5 years ago .....never looked back 😆. Much better return on your time and $$$$ Camera inside the dump body is a game changer
Construction and Trucking seems to be slowing down here in San Diego. You noticing any slowdown there in Washington Dauminique?🤔
I always preferred hauling blacktop over grinding. It was grinding and blacktop all summer, then hauling snow from the blower all winter. Sucked but made me a much better driver.
6:08 - My thoughts, exactly. Poor planning exposes everyone to potential agita, liability, and litigation.
(Also, the part about "I am not here to think" hit me in the feels 🥰)
Good to see you and the truck back at work. I see you have the sides of the dump box lined with plywood. Do you do that for hot material?
Here in Nevada, we call this milling, never heard anyone call it grinding, but it works, as that’s what the rotor miller is doing, grinds up the asphalt, and seems the guys the mill there do the same here, over load
Am glad to see you are back in your dump truck I love watching all your videos you are a very great truck driver plus you never get your dump truck stuck on the job site and will you go to dump the material that's a dump site that's a good
Already closed and no ticket? How do you get credited with the delivered load if you don't have a weight ticket? 😀❤👍
Huh?
I have a wireless camera mounted in the front of my box. Works great at intersections or anytime you can't see the operator
That was a delightful ad in the middle of the video. You look fantastic
B.C. department of highways has a cool machine that rips up the asphalt reheats and oils it then lays it back down on the roadway
I'm so glad to see there's more woman driving Class A and B trucks. I'm hoping to be driving soon. 👍
Good Job! I work with grinders all the time.
Good to see you amd BD1 Back on the road! Stay safe out there!
Thanks so very much for sharing your experience with us I really appreciate it and always drive safe and keep on making your videos
How long did it take you to get your truck loaded?
*Great to see you & your truck up and working again. 🙂 Yep days like that can seem to be long and slow moving. 🙂 Hope you have a awesome weekend with your family 🙂nz*
Hey, I'm just starting to watch your first videos, one of the new ones that are coming up. I noticed one thing straight away: when you're concentrating on something, you always press your lips together a little. You did that right from the start.
Why I watch the videos: as a man, I find it remarkable how a woman can fight her way through a man's domain. I also find the area charming (is there anything else besides rain?).
In the Midwest, we call it milling. We refer to the machine as a mill. Thanks
Calm,Cool and Collected that's our BD-1 Operator!..❤
Good luck y'all take care be safe 🙏
Y'all are milling. Nice. Caught many a load in the past.
Ride safe. Good to see you doing something agsin
I drive gas tanker in Seattle area and traffic has been a mess of late
Dauminique it’s so great 😀 to see you back doing videos on a regular basis. Get the money 💰 girl.😎Dave H
In Wisconsin we call that grinder a milling machine.
We called it milling in Tennessee and Georgia too.
@@Alleycatthegadite we call it milling in Michigan
We call it milling in Colorado
Like blue fingers nails 💅 . I use do that milling dump and the equipment
I’ve done a lot of grinding jobs but never in a parking lot. I work for a town highway department. That looks like a monumental pain in the butt
Here in Texas we call it the milling machine.
Good job done. First time I have ever seen you. It would be great to be around a positive person. Never let a man try and pull some bs. You probably already know that. Good luck with next job.
Welcome back lady power 💪💪💪💪 have a blessed and safe driving ❤
Wow, you have a spiders webb of power lines in the air in town. Doesn't power lines get buried in US towns? Must be a major hassle in storms where trees can fall on them and if they fall over they block emergency vehicles.
I like the desk!
In Ireland we call it a planer
D: you might consider buying a pair of wireless headsets that have a boom mic. and keep on hand, Perfect for jobs such as the grinding operation you are doing where communication is vital between you and operator. If the operator will wear one, but I don't see why not?
Great to see your back in action again . Truck looks good . 😊
hello there
this is my first time commenting on your content i would like you to know that i’m truly enjoying your posts
bravo
In my opinion you are a good truck driver and I love your truck 👌👌 thanks!!! again for the videos
What kind of radio do you use in your truck, I was trying to recognize the mic but couldn’t see it long enough?
when you take your trailer , are you still considered as a class 3 driver or a class 1 ?
I was wondering the same thing. Why is he swinging the boom back and afford? I only try Axel here in Pennsylvania. We run 73280.
I never seen anybody swing the boom back of work. Like that.🎉
How do they not shut down a section of the parking lot and move it everyday
We ground everything that needed to be ground in one day.
Nice Assphalt job
Big recycling pile = everyone is busy paving? Just sending good intentions, prayers and hope. I bought a few ""Beyond Dirt"" shirts.
Great video nice seeing you back driving your truck. Today was very nice to see your beautiful eyes. Have a wonderful weekend.
Love you're videos ❤from Columbus Ohio
Regained material makes great drive way material vs gravel
How long are your work days?
