Thank you for visiting the Choicemas "STOP THE CLOCK" Channel. I create content with hopes to inspire, motivate, educate, empower, and help others. A majority of my videos are Educational videos teaching the ins and outs of Safety and Securement, as well as the excitement of driving a 18 Wheeler Semi-Truck throughout the country. In addition, I have some inspirational, motivational commentary that I feel can help others. Recently I've opened up my page to Vlogs and Roadtrips with my wife and I that carry some humor and interest. I hope you can find videos you like, and if you do... give us a thumbs up and hit the subscribe button, as we sincerely appreciate the support and the amazing feedback we've received throughout the years. I started this channel knowing nothing at all and have come a very long way, and the journey has all been worth it. Many thanks to you all, God bless. -Choicemas
I'm looking to move to the USA from Sweden. I've done trucking here but have to get my american CDL before driving over there. I am considering going for flatbed trucking. Watching your videos I can see some large difference between EU and USA. We rarely if ever tarp, I've never done it, rarely see anyone that does. We use a different strap system also, so I have plenty to learn and study before getting to work in the USA. Thank you for your videos, they are very helpful.
These videos are so precise and such attention to detail, best channel for Flatbed Trucking by far , no other TH-camr does it like you 💪🏾
Truly appreciate the love! Stay fresh brother all the time. 🔥💯🙏🏼
I find this soothing to say that I start my first tarping job Monday in Georgia coming from Chicago. I have a lot of common sense and if this is what it’s all about then nothing is too much to make sure any and all loads are secured! Thanks man!
That is awesome!
This is the kind of dude I hope to come across in my future with trucking. Only got my cdl a couple months ago and looking to get into flat beds. Not sure why I want to, but watching your video makes me like it even more. Thanks for posting and keeping everyone and yourself safe!👍
Just started flat bed a week ago. I can tell you take pride in your work. Thank you for this it will help me level up 💪
Thank you brother. Appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment. 💯🙏🏼
Much respect to you flatbed guys
yes i am starting Flatbed in two weeks
🫡
Excellent job. I agree, there is no such thing as an over-secure load. Stay safe and continue doing what you're doing.
Thanks A lot MB I appreciate that, and thanks for watching!!
Bit overboard using straps im truck driver i carry bigger loads than that using half of straps what the fuck you on hour rate
Oh hey!! You're one of those "super truckers" I keep hearing about!! Awesome!! Now I see why every one hates them!
I’ve been known to over secure a load anyway better to over secure than under
I'm getting into flat bedding with the company I've been with and I definitely picked up a few tricks watching you. Thank you putting this video out there
🔥
Nice to see a TH-cam video of load securement and tarping by someone that actually knows what he is doing.
Thanks, I appreciate that!
Choice M.A.S. - Question: Running the bungies around the outside of the rail rather than completely through them, is that a preference thing or how you were trained?
For us new ppl who want to get into Flat bedding. This video was Very instructional. I can go into a company with confidence as to how to tie down. Keep them coming..... Again. Thank You.
40 years flatbedding. Retired 8 years ago. Never seen a tarp machine like that. Slick.
Respect to you!
Just subscribed! The best flatbed cargo securement videos I’ve seen yet. All business, no fluff, yet entertaining and enlightening. I have a feeling you would be a great mentor.
A true pro!!! Very cool! thanks!
Thank you. Appreciate that! I’m learning!
I rather do flatbed than unloading groceries and be counting boxes and pushing milk crates. Great video man 👍🏼
Very well done!!
learned a lot watching your videos.
Cool video and thx for showing detail of most of ur labor. Awesome really enjoyed the video.
Great vid. Reminds me of back in the days when we used ropes to secure the tarps
I secure my loads as if loved ones are driving around me.
You have to, there’s no other way but the wrong way. Thanks for watching
I got to say it's nice to see someone take pride in their work these days and I too agree there's no such thing as over securing a load.My theory is if god forbid the truck goes over I want that load to stay put.In all the years I've done towing I've seen WAY too many loads shift big time ;-)
+SouthJerseySound hey Jersey I appreciate that. I have some more of these coming soon. I had to teach myself as well, as they sent me out with a curtainsider for training. It's been quite a journey, and I love learning more and more as I go. Thanks for the comment, thanks for watching!
I've had a small load detach before (just a 16ft brush trailer), no injuries or problems thank God, but it all happened because I listened to my boss......needless to say lesson learned and I refuse to haul anything if I don't feel it's done right and safe. I never want to live through that ever again.
@@Twisted86 I've seen that happen too many times. The worst part is that when shit goes wrong the person who was like that's good enough turned around and tossed the guys under the bus to save their own ass.
Yeah. My boss just did that to me for inspections out of date on my reefer trailer. I complained to HR and he got my ass canned!!!
This guy is one bad ass! This kind of work is not easy, I hope you get your shoulders together buddy
Hey Cissy, I appreciate you brother. Right side Shoulder replacement in January 2024. Either getting the left shoulder scoped at the same time or will be getting it scoped the following January (2025).
I go to orientation on monday for flatbed, coming from the food service side. I'm definitely going to be studying your videos! Gotta make sure my securement and tarp game is on point! Appreciate your time and putting out this content bro!
Just ran across ya video and I've got you locked in on my subscription list. Good job and hell no you can never have to much load securement! 👍
+MrBigR 504 good lookin out! I appreciate the sub and leaving the positive comment. More to come for sure. Thanks again!!
That is a super job doing the tarps. Be safe!
Dawn M Thanks Dawn 👍🏼
A work of art, my man.
Hey man thanks! Thanks for watching to and leaving a comment as well!
Can never be too safe. Thanks for sharing.
+Michael Bates exactly Michael, thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. Peace!
Wow .... Great Job. I enjoyed watching every minute of the video. I learned alot as well. Thank You
Thank you for watching. I haven’t done step by step vids anymore because I was told they are too long. What do you think?
Nicely done!
Excellent job
Good to see the Bro still doing his thing yes sir respect 💯 and keep it going looks like the master has arrived continue to teach ,strive for perfection knowledge knowledge
Primoo. Peace and all blessings my brother. Good to know you still in good form. 🙏
@@choicemas thinking about getting my hands on the flatbed thing bro I know who to holla at with any questions and concerns thanks beloved and keep building
Man I spent so much time at that plant. The trucking company around the corner is who I used to drive for. We hauled a lot out of there. Almost every load came out of there. Gave up flatbed for car hauling and I miss flatbedding every day... when I saw you were loading in Wheatland PA I had to watch, makes me feel like I'm there doing it. Great job my man 🤙
Thank you for this…I’m teaching myself to do this thank god for you tube… appreciate the lesson bud
Hey man thank you for the comment and thanks for watching. If there’s anything I can help with feel free to shoot me an email. Good luck in all that you do brother and be SAFE! 👊🙏💯
Man, you have no clue how much this helped me bro. In two weeks I’m getting my CDL’s and I’ll be pulling flatbeds.
Des, I appreciate you bro. It’s not rocket science. I alway tell the newcomers… don’t over think it and I’m time, you WILL lock down you methodologies. After that it’s work, but it’s a cakewalk.
You're good brotha, I am most definitely going to steal some of your techniques.
Hell, if ain’t stole some from others I’m a damn lie!! Appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Great precision on strapping
LEGIT! Dope Music
Thank you brother. Appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment. God bless.
Good job driver back in the day we didn’t have these fancy tarping machines technology is nice
General Lee yeah I bet you guys didn’t. I respect the old timers and the things they dealt with in their day. #RESPECT
Thank you for these videos. I'm starting my flatbed journey Monday and I've learned alot from you 🙏🏿 #respect
#RESPECT Peace and Thank you. I really appreciate it. Congrats on your new move and if there’s anything I can do, let me know. Thanks again for the support and the comment.
Same here!
... slick tarping system , I was never lucky enough to see one of these
Yea nice job I love pulling flatbed. Been doing it for 19 years. But one the thing I learned. Less bungees. Is the way the to go

great video!!!!
Thank you for taking your time and making this video. It looks like you're really good at what you're doing and I learned few things. I'm starting my first day tomorrow as a flatbed driver, so I have no idea how all this stuff works, but this should help!
Absorb as much as you can from everything you can. Not only in flatbed but in LIFE! Peace bro. Keep me posted and any question or suggestions for videos you’d like to see let me know.
@@choicemas yea thanks for the live demonstration for the straps. Really helped me with my first load. Straps were really tight and I didnt have to tight them that often. Tomorrow I'm getting 2 loads that needs tarping... I'm so clueless with tarping....
Mush respect bro, I’m learning a lot from you. Keep doing what you do and safe travels. Bless up 🆙
Appreciate the Love. I stay low and pop up time to time. Thanks for watching and commenting. Makes all the difference. 🙏🏼💯
....🤠👍👍👍🙄....verry interresting....beautiful Job....super ...many greetings from Germany 🇺🇸♥️
Germany 🇩🇪 ! I was just saying to someone from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 that I’m always blown away when I see comments from viewers that live in other countries. I love it. It means that I’m reaching out further then I ever thought I could reach. All love and blessings to 🇩🇪! Be blessed and thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.
You’re the best!!!!
Hey Victor, that’s a generous comment. Thanks. Thanks for the support as well brother!
Thats a lot of work lol but i must get into this business! Thanks for the video!
Looks like more than it is because this was the beginning of my career. I can secure and tarp this load now in 30-45 minutes.
Enjoyed the video - Thank you for putting this out here and I hope you have been able to get your own Business as you said you wanted to...
I have. And running the truck I’ve always wanted to. Praise God. Thank you sir. God Bless.
'preciate the insight on this Brozay. It's a good look
I’m no truck driver, but that tarping station is badass!
Great Video
Great video ❤ thanks
Thank you Diana. Appreciate you taking the time to watch and the time to leave a comment. God bless. 💯🙏🏼👊🏼
Wonderful, tranks friend.
That intro is pretty dope
VERY NICE JOB , PLEASE STAY SAFE AND GOD BLESS
+sheldon hill Thanks, I appreciate it! You do the same and Blessings as well!
Great video man
I'm new at it and I've never seen a tarping station that puts the tarps on the load for you! I'm jealous!!
Wish ALL places had tarping stations like this lol!
+dave williams Hell yeah, you and me both Dave. 👊🏼
I'm assuming most tarping is done by hand?? Without the tarp lifting mechanism??
@@jixter_boy2452 yes 99.9%
Thank you
Nice load securement. The better your tarp job looks, when it is required, the less trouble the DOT guys seem to give you.
Always helpful big bro, that's why I love my stoopfam, just came across this video and this will help me out lots. Appreciate ya Choice #stoopfam #DOTminiseries, #DarksideOfTrucking, #Trendsetters #Trailblazers
So far so good
you just got me to subscribe I am heading your way awesome job and with so much detail thanks 👍
+Pittsburgh kid 412 thank Pittsburgh, appreciate ya! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. More videos like this one coming too.
Gawd, that looks so complicated!! Respect 🤦♀️
It ain't hard at all
Nice music. I think I want to be a trucking evangelist! Cheers!
Securing loads different for everyone but love the ideas. I go long folds to not bunch up the winch and add as a possible edge protecter on short height loads everybody got they're methods as long it's legal. Double belly strap a good look 👌
This my early years when I was teaching myself how to flatbed. I could find and point out some things I’d do different today for sure. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. Stay fresh.
Dude, thanks for the video. I'm from Cali and hope to break into flatbed. I learned a ton.
Thank you for watching. Truly appreciate it. Vids are just my growth in this trade. This vid was actually my very first year in trucking. Anything I can do to help, let me know.
@@choicemas thanks I will! I appreciate that.
Nice one!!!
This was in my first year of trucking. Very old video. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I appreciate it! 👊🙏💯
Nice job ... 👌
Appreciate it Dean! Thanks for the support!
Looks like I need to get into this field my brother
Keep up the good work
AB!!! Thanks a million. Appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment and showing support. It says a lot! 😎👊🙏
Nothing like open deck aka "Skateboarding"! Wouldn't do anything else, unless heavy haul. Stay safe out there bro! 👌🏾☝🏾🙏🏾✊🏾!
Thanks Heavy, you do the same. Stay fresh fam! 👊🏼💯
That Tarp station is really nice .They didn't have anything like that when I was trucking. Back in the 60s and 70s
Larry when you were trucking were the golden days of trucking. I wish I would have had a taste of those days. Salute and respect to you Sir.
Just subscribed to your channel im about to go to roehl in wisconsin in a few weeks and was told they were gonna put me in flat bed fleet. Amazing how its done roehl pays great for this. Its their top paying fleet.
Good for start up and then move on!
There are fleets that pay more though.
Hey bud thanks for the video. Im starting out in flatbeds in 2 weeks. Ive been a otr driver for 20 yrs and want to try something new.
Congrats. Coming over to the dark side, huh? 😂 you’ll either like it, love it, or hate it. Need anything let me know brother!!
Nice toolbox set up
Thank you brother. Thank you.
waoo Perfect video , i'm waiting more like this 👍👍👍👍👍 100 % of good
+armando soler heyyyyyy Armando thanks for that mane! More to come for sure. Check back and see! 👍🏼
Little tip. Get some wool blankets. I use them just for loads like these. It help 100% to keep the pipe from tearing up the tarps. Actually I use them on every steel load that requires tarps.
Then put the on front rear and then bungee tarp over.
Now THAT'S tarpin' !! :)
Thanks Michael!
The guy is a bloody tarping artist!
Thanks 🙏💯
awesome man...my ocd is at rest now....lol
Just got a new sub, good shit bro.
The real question is... can you back up? 😂😂😂
Just kidding, great video man!
Thanks for sharing. I just got my Class A CDL in October with all my endorsements (Double-Triples, Tankers, HazMat, etc.), and I start my first trucking gig on Saturday as a Flatbed Company Driver (#FlatbedGang!, LOL). I'm pretty worried about all the tying down, strapping down, chaining down, and all the tarping down, haha. I know they're gonna teach me all that, but I'm worried I'll mess up or not learn it fast enough.
With all that said, your video was very informative. I like that you rarely made any cuts in the video and, for the most part, kept it raw from start to finish. I subscribed, and look forward to watching the other videos you have available.
Good video 😎
Thanks Jesus, thanks for watching! 👊🏼💯
I started to comment about turning the bungee hooks facing outward and as I was typing it, you actually wrote that on the screen and said it too! Lol... but at first, they were facing in, against the tarp. Lolol. Great video though bro, got me wanting to record my securement and tarping techniques. I mean I have a Gopro and I do it everyday.....hmmm🤔
Just do it! #NIKE
Nice video I think this one helped
Hey thanks. This was the first securement video I ever made. Wild when I revisit and see the growth. So many things I should’ve,
Could’ve, done but just didn’t have the knowledge then. Thanks again and thanks for taking the time out to watch and leave a comment. Stay blessed. 💯🙏🏼👊
Thank you for the video im looking foward to become owner flat bed
Thanks for watching!
Good video
🙏🏼💯👊🏼
Enjoyed the lesson on taping (sheeting here in UK) Thought the taping machine was impressive.
Paul Whitear hey thanks Paul, and thanks for watching. More videos to come. Hope you subscribed. And wow, all the way in the UK, that's cool. I'll tell my daughters godfather that as he's from Manchester. *sheeting 👊🏼
Your right driver first safty
Thanks Driver 👊🏼💯
Nice bro
I can’t tell you how much these videos are helping me. I just graduated from securement training with Lonestar Transportation and trust me when I say it’s hard(er) to find vids on proper securement through TH-cam. Hoping I can make vids like this once I get around to doing Oversized in the next few months. Great work!!!
Yeah it wasn’t all his fault though. Trying to satisfy another driver was his first mistake. Keep me posted and best of luck. Stay focused and you WILL make it happen!
Slip it through then turn backwards strapgame learning! 😮
Wow!!! What an incredible video. That tarp machine was so cool, never knew something like that even existed. Thanks for showing!
Thanks for watching. God bless.
This is my school before school. Good lookin.
