Another container rollover blocking freeway lanes

- Another container rollover blocking freeway lanes. Today's episode is yet another world famous Pepe's container rollover. Not sure what caused this one, but this guy must have been flying to crash land this way and block almost the entire freeway. All rollovers are priority but the ones that are blocking multiple lanes are even more so.
I was first on scene in my 50ton rotator, Hulk, and immediately knew I had to clear lanes ASAP. The easiest way to do this is just bring the container towards me. This helps in 2 parts. First, it opens up multiple lanes to alleviate the already backed up traffic. Second, it gives us a much better and safer working area. By moving this thing all the way to the shoulder, both my rotators are able to work this against the guardrail and away from traffic. I see too many local companies that love to just work a job as they see it, and not think of proper positioning of their trucks or think of traffic flow.
This can be extra worrying when they take a long time, and now you have a major freeway funneled into 1 lane for many hours. Luckily we had this up in record time, with our heavy wrecker up front able to tow everything in one shot as soon as it's up. No need to split anything or waste time, we all work in unison to get the job done quick.
You'll see from the 360 camera that I was moving super fast, so I couldn't do my usual narration the entire time but at this point, you guys already know we get in and out quick. Also was a pleasure to work this with none other than the shredder himself aka my dad LOL.

Well, as a life long SoCal resident I certainly am grateful that Pepe's is out there doing their best to keep our massive Freeway system moving.
What a treat, anytime Dads on scene! Lot of respect.
After watching all the video's I think i'm ready to do a rollover myself.
I was planning on a rollover but having to watch this means I’ll have to wait another 27 minutes
Sure as hell make it look easy, don't they?? This has to be one of the neatest jobs going today😊😊
Wow so amazed with your work Josh you made that look so easy I love it say hello to papi chulo 🌹 JOE ❤️oh you telling your dad the shredder how to work lol you guys are awesome 💯😎
Glad to see Dad is doing well. It's been a while since we got to see him! ❤
You can crawl out of my head anytime. I was just thinking how I miss seeing your dad on calls. Nice to see the boss out on calls. Good work!
The Hulk finally gets to come out and play.
It’s nice to see a new addition to the company and you’re the type of person I would want training me because you’re kind of compassionate. You’re understanding you make sure that they know what exactly you want with help them. Understand what needs to be done later on and it becomes repetitive Josh. You’re an amazing man. Your father is an amazing man. Alex is amazing the wholecompany is amazing. Got the most pristine trucks I’ve ever seen and Mike must be absolutely thrilled to be part of your team and wish him all the best.
Another great job by Pepe's Towing. Good job clearing lanes initially. Helps out that bunch of grumpy drivers.
I enjoy your videos better than watching live TV. The aerial shots are a plus! Stay safe out there guys!! 💪
It all seems so simple, but the years of experience really count!
Got to love these new camera's today that can track your movement. Thanks for another great video to watch. Be safe.
Nice work getting that road cleared... the Pepe's way. The old man's getting some winch time.
I don't understand why american trucks are so tired that they ley down to sleep in the middle of the highway ;) great job as always and greatings from germany
We have leaders like Biden
Welcome to Mike! We never miss a PePe’s video🙌🏻
Always good to see your Pops. Stay blessed and healthy.
My dad and I worked wreckers together in mid 70’s we had old oilfield winch trucks and one Holmes wrecker I was 17 years old wouldn’t trade it for anything your dad reminds me of him he was a get it done kind of guy
Nice Job Josh, your Dad is THE MAN. I admire the way you scaled up that container. Have a safe week.
Poor Mike. Bad enough to be the newbie, but to do it on YT. Be cool Mike!!!! You're doing great. You didn't know you would have to pass a screen test audition for the position...LOL.
To me, this easily looks like a 10-20 thousand dollar recovery, perhaps more? Just consider... Your experience, your many vehicles, maintenance of the rigs, fuel, Cost of California requirements, payroll, maintenance, business property, general overhead cost( insurance, workmans comp...) maintenance, 24/7 availability, etc... You get the point. My brain hurts🤯pondering all the cost to operate such a business like this. You folks are badass, as well an incredible asset to our public transportation.👊🏼👍🏼💪🏼🏁 Just sayin', you know.
Glad to see HULK putting in that work Josh!!!
Moved from SoCal 5 years ago………damn sure don’t miss that traffic. Drove that 695-60 route to chino many many times. More……….rented a rotator once to pick up an airplane and it was $1500/hour. Worth every penny.
Great job, boss! Love the drone view too!
Another awesome performance 🤓🙋♂️👍
I still don't understand how you rappel up the back of the trailer like that (the video sped up just as you were doing that), that's crazy man, then getting back down! Big respect to you guys!
Yeah, he's half crane, half monkey, is our host. I think he climbs a container slower when he's got a ladder! Though I think it might give a European health and safety guy palpatations.
Spider Man & The Hulk :)
Ive seen your tow trucks for many years and this is the first time seeing them in action. You make it look easy. Good job by you, your dad and "Mike".
........................ G'day Josh,
WOW! All done in 1/2hr + travel. 2 Rotators, 1 Wrecker, P0lice and cleanup-crew. Fantastic result with such a SMOOTH operation. (my estimate $5-8,000)
Cheers with admiration to Pepe's Professionals from an 82yo Australian retired Metal-worker who loves the channel.

Hi Josh that was a quit job on this one I think your Dad is awesome
Another great job that could have been a lot more complicated with that lock cutting loose!
Very quickly done. Wish you had been about in my trucking days. Well done
I am from USA retired in Philippines now I watch all the time....Great job....I was CDL driver 50 yrs....Still miss it...
Your pin is in backwards...nice correction as you sail by... Josh, you are so polite and inclusive in being professional. Your employees emulate you.
Your Dad is fortunate to have his son working alongside him doing the rigging and climbing containers like Spiderman. Great videos!!
Awesome Roll over recovery
I have been watching you for a while even though I'm from Wisconsin and I'm glad to hear that you Bill hourly for all of the job
Father & Son doing what they do best - awesome job Josh & Dad! 👊👊
You guys make it look so easy. Great job.
Your Spiderman climbing on that Container 😂😂
Great job. I enjoyed watching the pros. Stay Safe!
I really enjoy watching you guys love what you do..
"the shredder" lol
Man, when your dad gets nervous my palms start to sweat. 😬
i would say a standard cost is $2500-- $5000 with rotator , police and such
Beautiful truck 🎉 glad to see hulk back in action.
Thats so dope that you get to do this with your dad Josh. Saludos Pepe’s Fam.
Another great recovery Josh....Awesome video...Stay safe and see you on the next one
Good to see your dad still out there. We are owner operated too, my dad had a heart transplant in August & he is out there again doing our LLV contract in the flat deck when they brake down. God bless & we love the content keep episodes coming!
You take good care of your dad. He's living on borrowed time now, so don't give him up without a fight. As a dad myself and almost 68 in June, I help my son with his aeration business and love it. He's my best friend and we seem to enjoy each other's company. He does try to do the heavy stuff, but of course I do my share. Don't know how to not do that.
Hauled many container loads to Compton and others out there back in the day.. Saw a lot of situations that were very interesting. 😎 Awesome team work, and Hola, a la trituradora.! 💪
Great job Josh. Pepe’s towing slinging the big metal around once again. ✌️
Good seeing the Scripture reference on back of the rotator. Great job as usual.
You guys know exactly what needs to be done and how it should be done. Josh and "Dad" fully respect the other guys, with everyone functioning like a well-oiled machine. And it's always good to see a father and son working together with each appreciating the other's contribution. Another job well done.
perfect team, everything is carried out calmly and safely. Greetings from Germany / Rolf from Berlin
Great job by Pepe's Towning. Great strategy to open the lanes. Am a fire-fighter here in Australia 🇦🇺 and get a few freeway jobs. Well done Dad, Josh and Mike.
Josh, milk pops complement for as much as you can? Super clean job my friend.
Good to see Papa Joe back on the tools for a spell. Ya can't keep a good man down, nice job.
Great to see Papa Pepe on the job! And Josh . . . You The Man!
Awesome visual and audio...another good job!
Josh Dad and Mike great video and teamwork! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Man,Just watched you guys do those rocks making the Seawall. Very impressive. I did 42 years trucking in a big wrecker for 20 of that. Every truck driver should 1) drive a yard mule for a month or so 2)a year driving big and small wreckers. You could close all the Schools because you’ll see every mistake a driver can make and drive in all weather conditions,How to do paperwork. How to speak with clerks and logistics. Great job guys…..What happened to Bobs towing?? Had some incredible trucks But??
Your Dad is Antony Quinns Brother?? 😁
You can teach big dogs new tricks lol. Alex awesome work your the 💣
I'm Josh, not Alex
Good job Alex!
What a nice recovery!Big Mike/Your Dad-You-taking care of business. I don't believe that I have seen that other rotatar in a video-with those outriggers thay set up like arms..
Love watching your dad and you working together, a huge amount of experience getting the job done safely and made to look easy. Well done guys.
Absolutely awesome work. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic job guys. Well done. Roy from the uk
Awesome job teamwork makes the dream work love watching your videos!!!❤❤
Buenas noches , estupendo video, y un gran trabajo, primero recuperando los carriles para que fluya el tráfico, luego con Hulk , y con la otra grúa, ayudando a Mike a enganchar el contenedor, y como no , otro gran ayudante y maestro, tu padre, la veteranía es un grado, saludos, Josh, ❤💪👏👍🖐️🇪🇦.Jesús.
Like always, great work
Another outstanding video guys

Great job, guys. Keep it up. Hope to meet you 1 day.
always enjoy you talking about the rigging and the reason. did have 1 question forgot to ask few days ago, on that huge transformer due to angles did the top lines also add a TOUCH of lift to leading edge? thanks much for the great content
How do the hell do you flip a container on a straight piece of road? That takes some commitment.
People always assume they just flip like a scarred goat. There can be dozens of factors. Cut off, swerved to avoid something, texting, not paying attention, speeding, unbalanced load, it's pretty easy to imagine how they can flip
I'm guessing he was practicing his "semi drifting" and hit a slick spot??? Maybe not😱😱😱
Another great video!!
Another awesome job
Great job. Row row rollover your trailer gently down the highway, marily marily marily life is just getting fired. 🚛
Great video ❤❤
Good job Man! Control, you said it!!
Another great video
Good job guys
great job, josh
You all do wonderfully work . Looks like containers are loaded improper top heavy LoL that's way there always on there side
Listen to the cañas, the cañas always win! 😂😂😂
Nice job Josh
Just so happens to be another freightliner. 😂 Josh you and your Freightliners lmao 😂 great job as always.
Freightliners keep Pepe's in business lol
@@PepesTowingService like I said you should have a freightliner salvage yard lmao
Ustedes son los mas chingones de LA 👍
5:50 The auto follow on your camera is impressive !!!
Hi Josh, the Prerequisite for hiring a rotator hand is there ability to climb like a monkey as you do, 😂😂good job, like you I liked working with my dad as well, you guys B safe out there & watch your back
Thank you for another interesting recovery video. I learn something from each one.
I think usually you use one of the special blue-coloured container shackles on each corner but this time you used a synthetic sling on one corner. Was that to provide a bit of shock-absorption for the moment when the container passed the tipping point?
Great and fast as well stay safe 🙏 😇
It looked like they could have opened 2 more lanes once you got it upright, but what do I know.
J àdore les vidéos 🤘
What was the total time from arrival to departure?... obviously edited to 26 minutes, but guessing 60-75 minutes ?
I really enjoy your videos. Why don't you ride the hoist down off the top of the container? Take care sir. Worked for TxDoT here. The public will do crazy things to keep from being delayed for one minute.
