Great video. Just a few words of wisdom. When I grab the center gate up top to get cattle to go into the nose or to gate cattle in the centers, I put my body against the gate. If by chance they kick the gate it keeps the gate from hitting you. Learned from experience. Lol.
Look into Magnum front bumpers. I had one on my 2010 Pete and loved it so I put one on my new truck. Has quick release slam latch. Just lift it up. Latches automatically. Put tow hook back in. Got blown over in wind storm while parked and empty with pot. Took the whole weight of the truck sense the bumper is wider than the truck. Put a scratch on the end of the tube. But it didn’t bend. Ended up putting the bumper back on after they fixed the rest of the truck. Lol.
I grew up in cattle truck in the 50”s and 60”s trailer s sure has changed a lot.. always have extra clothes.. and respect your cattle and pigs and sheep.. you never know what they will do 😊
I used to haul cattle back in the 80 and 90s!! Made a lot of trips to Omaha!! I doubt any of those little plants are open now!! Ran for a feed yard in Scandia Kansas.
Thanks for the video! I really enjoyed it! I used to haul heifers out of London, Ontario, Canada, down and in to Mexico, 30 yrs ago! Brought back great memories!
Yeah, and don't stand at the shute entrance when loading bulls either. Saw driver bucking a bull backwards up the chute. Only way to go was up, when he landed, it looked like the rodeo.
We had dairy cows, bred heifers we would raise and sell as springers, we also had rough stock( rodeo bulls) the holsteins were the worse, they wuld move around close their eyes a d run right over you. Yhe rodeo stock would load good and didnt hardly move around at all
Really enjoyed this video. Of all my years driving big rigs I hauled just about everything. But I never pulled a cattle trailer. It sure looks interesting. It was a great video. Truck em easy and have a good one. 👍👍👍❤️
With hauling any livestock ...you have to slow down to stops gradually. They aren't like humans...they stress out really easy. They shit alot when they're nervous. All animals do. Only considerate, and caring people should be allowed to haul animals in my opinion. Gotta drive with their welfare in mind. Especially since all the cattle are crowded in those trailers together with nothing separating them.
Never gate fat cattle......... or anything over 1400 pounds. And if you're going to film loading the belly from inside the trailer, the best and safest place to be is standing on top of your swing gate in the corner, with one foot in the side of the trailer and the other on top of the gate (foot facing outward). That way you have the perfect camera angle, you can clearly see them coming unto the trailer, and if the ones in the belly start trying to come out, just swing the gate close with your foot on top of the gate. That's how I load bison,. And your safe, they can't get to you on top of that gate. And fyi, if your doghouse has enough room to climb over the side, you can actually be in the trailer while loading the top, safe inside the doghouse. If you can't get out, you definitely don't want to be inside the trailer. Btw, is this an old upload? I thought you were pulling refers now?🤔
I really enjoy watching you load/unload, and hearing that Cat under the hood! You really would have to be careful not to be in the way and get crushed by a 1500 lb animal, plus keeping that top heavy load upright while driving!
A little trick i learned hauling horses and it works the same with cattle is,if they get to dancing around a bunch, just stab the brakes( not real hard) just enough to get their attention it makes them stand up and stop moving. It works like a charm.
That’s fun dealing with live cargo , I’m a car hauler dealing with customer calling me 700 text / phone calls asking when I’ll be at delivery- Miami bay shore ..... be safe driver 👍
First time I seen this video but instantly subscribed the first few things you said, I been driving for 10 years now and pulled about everything but I've always wanted to do livestock and I'm just looking for an in to get experience hauling livestock. Any advice?
i’ve got an opportunity to start hauling livestock. i actually know right where you weighed my mom worked that scale! and i feed that farm outside of dysart! originally from dysart.
I ain't complaining, but using a cattle prod though? It's been a while since I seen one of those been used. Surprised ur not using a red flag like a bull whip.
One thing I respect about u is that u talk about your fuck ups the same as u do about the successes! This is important bcuz fucking up is a part of trucking just like other things! If u aint fucking up here and there then u ain’t learning simple as that!
I have fats all the time only time I gate fats is when it’s a small load like 34 or something like that or going a really long ways and stay behind the gate loading the nose the crazy ones will come back hard
Our fats get woke up at 3:30 am. Then cowboys run them down the alley to loadout pens. By the time they hit the chute they are agitated and hungry. They average 1350-1500 lbs each and sometimes my gross is over 80,000.
Just found your channel lol I was on IG and there's a Canadian guy who drives a Merritt goldline/peterbilt 389 and I wanted to see how cattle were loaded into the trailer...wanted to ask - obviously we can see that's blood don't worry I'm not a crazy vegan PETA person lol but do the trailers ever get hosed down real good? Cause I could imagine if STD's and diseases are spread thru our blood...there can be diseases spread to other cows/steers/other livestock. Or how long between runs do you hose down the trailer? Another question, I guess I already know the answer to lol does the whistling really work well? Does everyone whistle to round them up? Dumb questions I know lol ... and how often do you have to use the tool to shock them or whatever when they are being dangerous?
It all depends on what you’re hauling. For me it was dairy calves and then cows on the way back. You’d have to wash out the trailer at the end of every round and every other round you would scrub or power wash the side walls. You wouldn’t have to do that as much if you’re hauling fats

I grew up on a dairy farm back in 1965 to 1977. 80 head of dairy cows. Holsteins. In the stations. Jordan, MN. I am use to it!!!
Great video. Just a few words of wisdom. When I grab the center gate up top to get cattle to go into the nose or to gate cattle in the centers, I put my body against the gate. If by chance they kick the gate it keeps the gate from hitting you. Learned from experience. Lol.
AMEN!
Cattle hauling videos are great, fun to watch, great teamwork loading up those cows, keep up the good work!
The 4 axle end dump I use for grain is the same way especially getting into some of those tight farm drive ways. Always hangs into the Ditch lol

I drive a 2021 freightliner and man those old trucks are so cool looking. That thing has a sun roof! Mind blown 😳
I grew up in cattle truck in the 50”s and 60”s trailer s sure has changed a lot.. always have extra clothes.. and respect your cattle and pigs and sheep.. you never know what they will do 😊
@9:58, I am pretty sure I ate that one not long ago. Was in the freezer for a while but still good!!!
I used to haul cattle back in the 80 and 90s!! Made a lot of trips to Omaha!! I doubt any of those little plants are open now!! Ran for a feed yard in Scandia Kansas.
My dad lived in scandia and use to work at that feedlot too
Thanks for the video! I really enjoyed it! I used to haul heifers out of London, Ontario, Canada, down and in to Mexico, 30 yrs ago! Brought back great memories!
You’re welcome brother! That sounds like some long hauling!
Makes me miss hauling cattle. Did it got 10 years. Been pulling tanker the last 9. Good video
Hauled my last load of cows yesterday. Starting a tanker job on Wednesday. I’m gonna miss it too
Those trailers are so cool. I bet they cost a fortune
Cattle trucks are super nice grew up in South St Paul used to have big Stockyards big meat packing companies
This is so cool I would really like to see more of the loading and unloading of life stock God bless
Yeah, and don't stand at the shute entrance when loading bulls either. Saw driver bucking a bull backwards up the chute. Only way to go was up, when he landed, it looked like the rodeo.
Just want to let everyone know, I do not recommend loading the cattle standing in the top of the trailer like I was at first. Really dangerous lol
You can load 15 fats on top deck
The Milk Man what about the hot shots?
You cant use them everywhere but at most farms you could no problem
The Milk Man don’t use it at Tyson!!
Brett Clayton Tyson so strict right
We had dairy cows, bred heifers we would raise and sell as springers, we also had rough stock( rodeo bulls) the holsteins were the worse, they wuld move around close their eyes a d run right over you. Yhe rodeo stock would load good and didnt hardly move around at all
Great to know how things get done ….. keep up the great work on showing us
Good to see your pulling one of them holy trailers again. Good luck and have a safe trip.
Rocky mountan Bull hauler this is an old video
New sub here, from Fairfield Iowa! It is work, HARD WORK! Thank you Sir ❤
Really enjoyed this video. Of all my years driving big rigs I hauled just about everything. But I never pulled a cattle trailer. It sure looks interesting. It was a great video. Truck em easy and have a good one. 👍👍👍❤️

So glad I subscribed amazing content can’t wait to hit 10k in the future
I wouldn't feel that I'm by myself. Knowing I got cattle in the back, I'll always feel like someone or something is there with me lol
I'm just a little ole Alabama homestead momma, no cows but...... man am I digging this!!
The one thing I will say about the reefer is your truck will stay a lot cleaner then when you was pulling the bull wagon.
Milk man milk man yea that’s me
Never gate fat cattle......... or anything over 1400 pounds. And if you're going to film loading the belly from inside the trailer, the best and safest place to be is standing on top of your swing gate in the corner, with one foot in the side of the trailer and the other on top of the gate (foot facing outward).

Milk man was my dad's cb handle he went by that because we had a dairy
?why did he say not to gate the top ...I always gate the top so they can't move and shift thier wieght as much
Keep up the good work milk man
I was raised on a farm. I love everything about this video. Thanks
A little trick i learned hauling horses and it works the same with cattle is,if they get to dancing around a bunch, just stab the brakes( not real hard) just enough to get their attention it makes them stand up and stop moving. It works like a charm.

I've been wanting to haul cattle. Pulling refer now .
U dont wanna haul cattle. Believe me.

First time I seen this video but instantly subscribed the first few things you said, I been driving for 10 years now and pulled about everything but I've always wanted to do livestock and I'm just looking for an in to get experience hauling livestock. Any advice?
Just curious how heavy is a load of cattle like this?
Greg Poposki 50,000 - 60,000 lbs
@@atlranzz9229 80,000lbs
the cattle weighed in at a little over 59000 lbs.
i’ve got an opportunity to start hauling livestock. i actually know right where you weighed my mom worked that scale! and i feed that farm outside of dysart! originally from dysart.
Loading cattle is all fun and game until you smash your fingers I mean am I right
Farm and fleet haha where you from?
I ain't complaining, but using a cattle prod though? It's been a while since I seen one of those been used. Surprised ur not using a red flag like a bull whip.
Good shit brotha I’m thinking about getting into it.keep the content going
One thing I respect about u is that u talk about your fuck ups the same as u do about the successes! This is important bcuz fucking up is a part of trucking just like other things! If u aint fucking up here and there then u ain’t learning simple as that!
So 3 in nose 15 top deck, 16 belly and 7 in rear am l right.
Depends on size of cattle. Most of the time hauling fats I haul 35 total. I put 18 on top 15 in the belly and 2 or 3 on the back.
James Haley for top deck you don’t have counter balance right
James Haley you have double axle trailer
They took long time to load you
What state is that plate from in your visor
Are you going to Keep your Channel Name or will you Change it ? Good Luck with the Next Phase of Trucking.
Hey milk man what part of Kentucky did you pick up or unload in
Haulin livestock has been a dream I just wouldn’t know how to get loads
Where do I apply to learn.. I'm really interested and been a lifelong dream of mine
Are they heifers or steers
Those are some big cows... I'm assuming they are being sold for 🐂🥩 .
New subscriber from New Zealand. Your stocktrucks are so different to our part of the world. What is your payload and gross weight
I have fats all the time only time I gate fats is when it’s a small load like 34 or something like that or going a really long ways and stay behind the gate loading the nose the crazy ones will come back hard
Kyle Redinbaugh what type of cattle you have tri axle double axle spread axle or quad ax
Caleb Manuel 17 just depends where you are running like the Midwest you can run heavy with more axles
I have 994 heifers and 12 bulls on my farm
I am sure I saw you at JBS Green Bay.
Great channel!
What was the box on the front of the trailer, it looked like you turned a valve in it?
How do you get into hauling live stock
Semangat kerjone mas brooo!!!keep spirit...
Hi mate I'm new to your blog. Really like them 👍 I'm from Australia. you're trailer's are so different to our trailer's.
Welcome aboard!
How off do you wash out the trailer???
Do you miss hauling a bull wagon???
what gearbox do you run and final drive ratio just curious
Our fats get woke up at 3:30 am. Then cowboys run them down the alley to loadout pens. By the time they hit the chute they are agitated and hungry. They average 1350-1500 lbs each and sometimes my gross is over 80,000.
That has got to be the easiest loading I have ever seen 🤣
That Cat sounds damn good. B model?
Wats wrong wit ur truck I seen the pic of her in the shop
Are those steers or heifers.
Thought you went back to reefer???
Again Welcome to the Brotherhood
Just found your channel lol I was on IG and there's a Canadian guy who drives a Merritt goldline/peterbilt 389 and I wanted to see how cattle were loaded into the trailer...wanted to ask - obviously we can see that's blood don't worry I'm not a crazy vegan PETA person lol but do the trailers ever get hosed down real good?

Keep dah shiny side up and the dirty side down ROGER DAT.
Do you have to let the livestock out of trailer on long haul or do they stay in trailer?
Yes sir! If it’s a real long haul, we let them out to rest, eat and drink
Yall hiring? I live in cedar rapids, iowa
What is the average weight of the cattle you are loading?
At this point are some of them starting to get worried where they're going?
how much money can you make monthly with your own truck and cattle trailer
thanks
This is so interesting to see, lol so it that shit in the trailer?
I can smell this video.
When you look cool, you don’t have to drive fast...
