- Shane and I responded to this 76k Lbs tractor trailer that had lost traction and rolled into the ditch. The steep incline, narrow road and heavy trailer made for a challenging recovery!! Hope you enjoy!

I ve seen UK recovery operators do a sidewards slide,and they carry a 20litre container with soapy water in to splash under the tyre to aid sliding. Great vid,keep them coming.
Soapy water can be a huuuge help in certain situations.. I did not resort to that method because of the lip of the roadway, I needed to lift the driver side over that lip or risk blowing out tires/damaging the roadway. Its covered by leaves but it is a very tall edge.
That was a bit of a trick situation! But you guys worked it out! Good job!
Yes! Thank you!
You all really need a Rotor wrecker definitely come in handy for jobs like you all been doing even the last semi could of used it wrecker season has been HOT for business lately wait til winter you all are gonna be swamped get ready !!!!!
I know! It's hard to find one right now! We're looking forward to a busy winter.. fingers crossed!
👍good 💯
Hey! We've been to this place before!
Awesome job guys
Miracles will never cease we just saw one today on this video.
Very good job
nice work and a tough job for the stick boom especially with the lack of a spreaderable outrigger! got it out though, no damage and a happy customer!
GREAT "WATERMELON" RECOVERY
I’ll “Pineapple” second that!
@@peewee.3138 "pineapple" yeah
I watch to learn and see if I have abetter idea most of the time I think by idea is better most of the time recovery i see your way was better. This is the first one I had the same idea
Glad to see we were on the same page.. this was by far one of the most nervewrackign ones ive been a part of.. mostly due to the hill... it was sooooo steep! and even though we got it done I did not like the position the wrecker had to be in.
@@MercifulTowing I thought that last little hit the wecker until the camera showed different.
It's easy to be a keyboard warrior I try really hard not to appear that way I'm 66 grew up towing towed first cars at 13years old dad was in the salvage business had a I think about 1950 home built wrecker then grew from that. Most people don't understand just how dangerous not just the recovery but from stupid drivers that don't slow down and move over
@@DependableAutoTruck agree! I have to catch myself sometimes too being an armchair expert lol
@@DependableAutoTruck You came from the time where you had to know how to operate the wrecker! All to often I see guys that don't know what they are doing but have money to buy big enough equipment... that's just as dangerous as the drivers that don't slow down/move over
Sometimes in a similar situation another line (if you had it) off the driver’s side low to a Holmes Tree anchor could hold that side of the truck down on such a tight work area. Never a perfect solution but you and Shane pulled it off professionally with no damage. Stay safe till the next one!
Great job👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
good job..lol
I bet that driver had to change his shorts when he started to back up and it started leaning LOL good job
when i got in the truck the seat was clean.. i checked!! LOL
WOW great job Guys yes a Rotor would have been the perfect piece of equipment for that recovery but you had to think outside the box in the end everything worked out the question did the new wrecker pull a wheelie pulling that heavy trailer sideways LOL
It was floating on the driver side for sure lol but no wheelie
@@MercifulTowing Dang wish you had that on Video LOL I do have to say the Heavy Pulling Video are the best ones .. Hey Take care have a nice Weekend and enjoy yourself
@@rogerstlaurent8704 if you watch closely while Shane is on the controls you can see the boom start pulling towards the trailer then we set it back down. It had the inner duals of the passenger side in the air
What in the cornfed mess is he doing up in that tight of a spot anyways. Thise roads sure do look awful tight to be up in there
Yeah.. he should not be up there gps reroute lol
Was that a stupid autoshift trk. I hate mine. Almost got the big wrecker stuck in a bad spot. Looked you had almost no room to move
Yes Volvo's lovely I-Shift... and yea, we had to put it in quite the tight spot for this one..
Hey Shane !! Was that a regular truck route or Another ""GPS"" Failure ?? 🤔🤔🤔 Great job on both parts !! 🙃😉😊👍👍👍👍👍
GPS Failure! Interstate was shut down again. Semis should definitely not be on this road!
@@MercifulTowing OKS !! kinda thought that when saw what the road was !! GOOD you guys got him out without tearing something up !!
that's not fun being on a steep hill..
No it wasn't
Barkers Mill Rd??
Yep yep
