Do the 2 straps necessarily need to be on the first and last 4 feet, or is it that they need to be within 4 feet apart near the front and near the back of the load?
I been driving 15 years reffer bud now I just start flat bed do you tech outside company drivers l need some more trying from you my friend can you give me training?
Hi there. For context, I've been flatbed trucking with lumber for 8 years now. You don't need corner protectors when it's just strait lumber like in this video. There's no risk to cutting your straps on lumber like this. I use corner protectors to protect the straps if metal is involved or to protect the cargo if more fragile material is being strapped.
So. Tell me why they refused a load. As the load is properly braced and held in place like regulation says to do if they aren't wrapped... And part of the bracing is extra wrapped pallets to block the loose drums in (non flammable drums). No instruction on the order to wrap them all either.
Yeah. It’s not that the 2 straps necessarily need to be on the first and last 4 feet, rather that they need to be within 4 feet apart near the front and near the back though…
@@Jamedia66no it definitely needs to be within the first 4 feet front and back doesn't have to be 4 feet apart I work for western this is how they teach
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.
Oh ya?? Ok captain whatever you say… it’s different for different states clown dot for NYS is totally different then dot from another state yall slow af
@@Zombieman77386 for what ever company u work for, sounds like some tmc shit to me, its tha first 10 feet of any load or 2 straps on what ever bundle is first if it isnt one peice, look it up om fmcsa, i aint gom debate this either because its written fact. soo let tmc tell u what to do.
@@dejourdennis7126 thats what i was saying bro, jus two for tha first 10 feet and 2 on tha last ten feet or two on tha last bundle if it isnt one full peice.
I have learned so much from watching your videos. Thank you!
Great job Driver
That second strap is over 4ft. The load starts at the front of the trailer. NOT at that first stack pocket
It’s still legal he’s speaking company policy not dot laws it’s 2 in the first 10 feet
Do you have any videos for lumber that requires tier strapping?

Not required on lumber unless it’s soft lumber, the damage risk is to the lumber tho not to the straps.

And my wrapped jobs. Are good enough to to take a rocket semi launch and stay on pallet.

It’s 2 in the first 10 feet and one every 10ft after if the rest is shorter than 10 feet treat it as such nothing states 2 in the last 4 feet
