Dude trying to throw you a $100 to do 4x the work you're supposed to do and to be responsible for the damage of thousands of dollars worth of product...his prickish stomp away tells you all you need to know about him. You're the epitome of professionalism. Great job brother
Would’ve been an easy $100 bucks, I don’t think he’d be liable if it’s damaged, customer gave consent to bring it down there on film, but I get his concern, but as a construction worker I’ll gladly drive the forklift anywhere I guess 😂 as long as I can sit down and chill and drive for a little bit haha
I was a dump truck driver for over 20 years and I had some jobs where I had to go to residential homes and the problem is most people dont realize how heavy the truck is and how much damage it can do to their property and if the driver decides to chance it, it's all on the driver for taking that chance. I really enjoy your videos, stay safe out there.
Tell the pri?@, I don’t care how much money you bribe me with. Call your contractor he will advise you the best way to drop the load: if it says curb side delivery, that’s just what it means.
Electrician here. Had a customer complain we “tore up the lawn” installing a solar panel in the backyard…she was upset we trenched from the house to the panel..not sure how she wanted us to wire it? Maybe she thought she could just use an extension cord 😅😂but I commend your patience! Great customer service!
@@SaffordDelivery those complaints were after separating the sod from the soil and relaying the sod when we were done……she said “I’m Hawaiian you don’t want to piss me off” 😂😂
Yeah, he keeps his cool so well. Almost seems to get a kick out of most of it. Probably just knows he has the power and understands why they are asking, and a lot of them don't know the details of what they are asking.
Or just a privileged driver with poor customer service. Seems like not the best truck driver if he can't make this delivery. Must work for a company and be in a good union because if this was his own business I'm sure he wouldn't be putting his reputation out there as a lazy bad truck driver.
@@McCucumber he's not lazy, he just doesn't want the liability or any issues on his side...... Says curbside and if you don't like that call company and arrange different delivery be4 ordering materials.....
It's just amazing how so many customers know so much about driving a Moffett. I get this all the time. The one I love is "I've got the fence open at the back and you can drive through and put the stuff in the backyard". Of course it's an 8 foot gap. Say no more
@@SaffordDelivery what if the gate is 12 feet wide, he was saying usually a gate if you are lucky is 8; wide. If bigger opening are you more appt to give a lil help?
@@dustyflair We do what we can to try to get the materials closest to the job site as possible for the customer but sometimes there are site restrictions and sometimes people want us to drive across their lawns etc etc
Alot of those type of customers rely on people being desperate. This guy was a half idiot. 100.00 is chump change today. Not even close to being worth the headache.
My wife is a market manager all the drivers love her as their manager she will drive out to addresses to disqualify them she also will follow the drivers and deal with the customers. She tells the stores to pound sand for the drivers. Imagine making deliveries in Los Angeles just as difficult as country roads
So many people think oh this guy is a delivery man. But don't stop to think I'm a college grad and this guy is stupid for not delivering it to my door not realizing that oh hey they truck will crack the driveway roll over ruin the delivery.
You're already driving through potholes up the driveway why not just check the rest of the driveway out and help them out and make some extra cash I'm sure as long as it's good enough driveway why not do it
@@ModernCountry365 would You walk a quarter mile inspecting the whole road to verify the safety, know all that time will be taken from your workday?? Also you heard nothing he said throughout the video,did you?? Liability.
I just want to say that when I first found this channel I kind of thought , Man , He could have helped that guy out & He didn't. Then as I saw more & more videos , I started to understand why He cant help some of those People. Now I feel for the Guy. He is kind of stuck being "That Guy" , as He is the Guy between the shipper & the customer. I really respect the way He handles Himself while dealing with the customers. I mean , the Guys job is difficult enough without having deal with that crap. Also very smart to only accept a tip when the job is done. There is a 100% difference between a tip for a job well done , & someone trying bribe You to do something , before the straps are even off. I would compare it to someone tipping a waiter before they order food at a restaurant , it just doesn't happen. Always enjoy your videos Man.
I have actually tipped my waiter before receiving service, just a few times to see what its like. Takes away the whole dynamic of seeing the bill and trying to work out whats what.
He is that guy, he is not professional at all, he just stays calm, there's a difference, this guy is all about "that's not my job". No responsibility, not worried about anything but getting views on TH-cam. Your first impression was probably correct. They usually are.
@@anotherbeard667 BS...GTFO...if he'd have dropped the load what would the "poor" customer do? You know damn well he'd refuse the order and claim the delivery guy was reckless. Or he'd wait until he leaves and then take a bunch of pictures and do everything in his power to screw over a guy who has to actually work for a living. Just because he didn't risk his equipment and the load at the request of some guy for a measly 100.00 that barely covers 2 people on a fancy date now. The ONLY scenario this guy had to do right is exactly what he did. You're probably one of those rich azzholez who get pissed in these situations but don't think twice about what a real working man has to do to survive. Or about costing him his job while you sip your wine or martinis. Calling him lazy because he did his job. FU! Can't stand pricks like you.
@@shaunofthedead3000 know how i got rich? By being professional. He has a body cam. You missed that part apparently. The camera records. That's its job. The body cam would show that it was damaged before delivery therefore negating any liabilities on the drivers part. It wouldn't matter what pics the customer took at that point. This is very simple 1+1 type of math which you, ma'am seem to be having difficulty figuring out. I've left these comments sincerely trying to help this man and his business by pointing some things out that could help him improve, why are you mad? Who are you? Are you in the video?
@@anotherbeard667 Being professional is doing what your business' description exactly says, no more, no less. In his case, CURBSIDE DELIVERY. Weighing the risks of doing something extra, do or don't, is being professional. Tell me your definition of being professional.

You are courteous, knowledgeable and won’t be brow beaten or intimidated into doing something which financially could have an impact on you and your family. Keep going I think you’re great.
@@fuzzyelm1 that’s what the man baby said in the video after his $100 got declined smart ass. How you gonna hate when you obviously didn’t watch the video smh
I couldn’t tell what the man said as he walked away. I figured he was mouthing off, because he didn’t get his way. $100 wouldn’t be enough to cover the possible damage to his truck.
do what you can : in a safe and timely manor in order to help out a customer if it can be done ... but $100 won't cover your liability in case you run into a situation that can do damage to property or product
7:45, so if He can afford all that renovations material, he can afford to put some gravel in the potholes. And you still don’t even have to go up the property because it is a roadside delivery like you said.
You're good for recording your deliveries. Dealing with some ppl expect everything they can get. I would enjoy working for a Company that has a Supervisor such as yourself. I learned decades before my accident there are a lot of nice people and others that are out to get all of anything they can out of you making out as though a driver owes them something just because they bought something in a store. Level headed-ness. Goodluck young man 👍
The weight is incredible even before the load, and imagine the brakes, the steering etc, amazing machines, but stressful when blocked by a car or bad customer
Love the new introduction You know you do your best everyday This guy should have known from the last time it wasn't going to go his way Thanks for sharing Mike 👍
I loved that part at the beginning when the $100 is offered. Sorry sir, I can't do that. It weighs too much to be on uneven ground for much more than a few seconds. And don't even get me started on how far back your house is. No, I'm sorry, but this thing says curbside delivery ONLY, which means I'm not supposed to go any further than the curb. Dude, I'll give you $100 right now, cash. $100? Are you serious? Why didn't you say so in the first place. Sure I'm in for $100. That's a pretty fair risk to take and makes all the difference in the world as far as my own, as well as the shipping company's, as well as the store's all combined liability. There's a few $100k worth of equipment that I need, every day, in order to make my living. Plus there's what ever the destruction of your supplies on the trailer, Plus whatever damage I do to your property. Sure, Yeah, $100 ought to make it worth the risk.
He didn't even bring it to his house? Lmao. That's bogus. I've went down roads way worse than that and made it happen. Like 99 percent of the time everything was good only a few times product was damaged. Also, it would have been way easier and faster to unload by his house probably in same spot. I dunno, that semi could have made it there imo pretty easy. The boards were cracked anyway even tho he didn't drive down there. How does that happen? This is actually crappy, I feel bad for the customer. Imagine paying for all that not even to be dropped of at yer house. For the truck driver to be so much of a whimp to be scared to drive it down a driveway with some potholes. Brah. You wouldn't do so well driving in Alaska that's for sure. Drama queen. Also the fact he tried to make the customer look like he was bribing in this title for just trying to get his product to his house is actually disgusting. That equipment is made for that. He just couldn't be bothered because he doesn't get extra pay. Reminds me of a tow company tbh.
They paid for curbside delivery... is this guy supposed to give something that they didn't pay for to everyone all day, everyday?.....he gets paid per delivery and he deserves to make a living too
Yeah that plaster board was on some weak ass pallet. The long supporting timber was like 1.5 inches thick. Should be at least 3 inches thick to take the weight. Never have I seen plaster board on such a shoddy supporting pallet.
To the end. You never know how soft that road can be either. Looks to me you are considering all possibilities so that not only the customer gets his load, but that you return Safely Home that Night. Thanks for Sharing. Stay Safe.
it's always the "go ahead, drive through this area you arent normally supposed to" people and the one time some nice soul does it, they gets back to the store and they wanna know why he ruined his yard lol you made the right call without a doubt. hundred bucks isnt worth your job, or being reliable for damage.
Good call buddy as a trucker we know how heavy loads r and when customers want to tip in places make sure the tips is 5,000$ to pay towing to come and get you back to the road!! GOOD CALL

hats off to a professional who knows his business, communicates well with his customers and us and explains well his thought process while keeping his cool. BRAVO!!!
Hardie board is used for stucco and backer board for tile installation. I'm a tanker driver that delivers paint to the plants that make this stuff and the binder that basically glues the concrete and fibers together to make the boards. Your exactly right that stuff is extremely heavy . 1 board weighs typically 10 to 20 pounds pending on length and width. Good job driver you do whats right and what is safest.
I lived in rural Oregon. We had a construction company. Narrow 1000 ft driveway thru the woods. It had a circle at the top of drive. We got semi deliveries. Those drivers were amazing. Lot of pulling up and backing up to avoid the trees. We applauded as they headed out
There's always a previous injury that reminds me how SAFETY is priority on a job site. The other day, while digging a ditch in the drizzling rain, my footing became tenuously unstable. I kept sliding in the mud, when I decided to call it quits. The lingering pain is incentive enough to keep mindful of the dangers when you spot them. Ya, sure, the job was late, but time lost from the injury is the worst option.
Dude i feel you, those mofitts are the most unstable forks going, so even driving to where you are in that driveway is super dodge!!! fair play dude #recordeverything peace out from Ireland
That $100 would look pretty silly in the face of $1000 of damaged product. The more delicate stuff would likely have cracked from the bumpy ride for sure. The bounce you feel on those things is huge compared to a pickup truck driving down a gravel road.
@@dirty_kenzo21 I'm not mad Dirty K. I don't think I would use that delivery service. I'm a delivery driver and I do everything I can for my customers. Then I get a tip. Curbside, That's silly.

You are correct about Hardy siding, it’s very flimsy whilst handling it but it sure does make an outstanding finished product. We install Hardy siding using a roofing gun, nailing every 8-10”. Hardy trim we use a standard 2” trim gun.
Stumbled on your videos and am so glad I did. I haven't done what you're doing, but I have worked as a delivery guy and it is truly amazing what some delivery customers will try.
People are so ignorant. They want to live remote for privacy and solitude...then act like they live on an emoty commercial lot right off the expressway. All he needs to do is pay day laborers to carry it piece by piece the rest of the way up the drive. Just one of the expenses that come with the LUXURY of living "in the country/out of the city". BTW: Tips= To Insure Prompt Service. "Insure" as in "make sure I am covered". Back in the day a "tip" was given in advance in order to incentivize a person to perform above average work. IMO dude should have handed you that 100 and said "Thank you. I understand your concern about the driveway. I appreciate the hard work you do and will figure out the rest myself".
My comments are really for the people buying the products you haul. Your “Lift” aka Moffett weighs around 7000 pounds & is as wide as your Freight liner truck. People do not realize how treacherous it is hauling product down a narrow wet pot hole road, with bushes & trees on each side. Potentially getting a lift stuck in mud or a wet area with customers order and potentially damaging it is not enjoyable. I like the comment one of your subscribers wrote:about him “getting his own truck with a gooseneck trailer”. The delivery parameters require common safety sense. You truly have that and to be commended for your calm explanation. I did those deliveries for HD & the store associates promised customers orders to be set up on balconies or on a roof or in a back yard over the fence or through a gate not wide enough to drive a lift through. Or carried up the stairs. The Curbside delivery is consistent with the minimum fee of $70.00 they are charged. If one wants to rent a crane to have product put at the job site on an exact spot then thats their option. Keep up the good work. Stay Safe and I truly appreciate your video & commentary. I no longer wanted to deal with the issues you tackle daily. The very few times I got stuck in mud in a yard the customer said “oh I didn’t know it was that moist”. Then trying to tug the lift out of a 2 foot mud bog with my truck & chains. I finally said PhukIt. So I am went back to hauling & delivering on my own terms. No hauling mulch, drywall, pink insulation or fence panels or 20 foot wide lumber. Got to give you accolades for dealing with it. Funny thing was I got tips now and then, usually on the easiest deliveries.
When I was replacing my roof a couple years ago I had the materials delivered. They said they would deliver the shingles to the roof. I didnt believe them. I was surprised they brought the semi down my road. However they did do exactly what they said they would. The shingles were put on the roof, and the skid of osb was set just inside the garage. It was much better than the last time when I picked up the materials my self, having to carry shingles up a ladder sucks.
My husband is a great woodworker. He has had to have a great deal of materials delivered to customers jobs. Materials tend to be heavy Hydraulics are your friend. Being nice is free😂 You do a great job Sir
Used to be a hi-lo driver years ago for FoMoCo….lifted engine racks…24 feet Off the ground and stacked 6 racks high…ass end came up many times What a weird scary feeling. You do a great job…PROPS to you…God Bless
I really admire you for the hard work that you do and I expect it can be a pain sometimes! And I really think that because you go out of your way and Beyond the Call of Duty to go further then curbside delivery, that you'll be rewarded in the long run by Word of Mouth!
@@fuzzyelm1 yes, I am very serious! You're entitled to your opinion oh, but don't expect everybody to agree with you! If I were you, I wouldn't be calling anyone any bad names, as it's very inappropriate! I was at my local hospital the other day getting a medical procedure done and I noticed a woman's t-shirt that said, be kind or be quiet!!!
I've seen real drivers delivering materials to jobsites up hill down hills, holes, ditches and mud so deep they were sinking in it still brought it right to the house. My guy sprayed his machine off and done. Your no operator my friend more of a vlogger but I am Entertained thumbs up lol 😆
They once booked a load of 25ft metals beams but forgot to check if we had a ramp to bring down a forklift to unload the beams. Me and the driver carried each of the 84 100lbs beam by hand.
lol when they can get paid thousands of dollars for grading the field level and seeding it and adding straw so the seed grows also if it is planted with crops it would be much more expensive
Documenting the work is easy and worth it when it goes sideways from a Karin. Interesting channel I stumbled on, Like your work so far from what I have seen.
As a driver myself you are absolutely 1000% CYA, people will say one thing, be absolutely nice then turn right around and stick a person in the back, humans are treacherous, never take money lest you get poisoned.
Man you need some extensions for those forks if you're going to be hauling that stuff, but I not telling you anything you don't know. You did better then I could have with what you had. Sure had me on the edge of my chair as I watched you.
I'd just say I'm only insured to the curve. I can't risk my policy or machinery. Leave it at that and the bad guy is deflected off you. I blame everything on liability and insurance when I'm faced with extras.
You must share that tractor the seat is nasssty! I share the same truck its a Penske tandem Cascadia and they are truly disgusting. Penske is suppose to wash our trucks but never do and when I ask them to they give me the runaround. One day I got so frustrated I decided to wash the truck my self by hand which sucks wasn't able to get any of the sludge and grease off especially on the tanks. It's a tough call not having a shop or yard with any tools to clean the trucks. I've considered driving home and using my personal equipment but then again it's a company lease and why should I have to use my personal supplies.
Where I live ( island of Hawaii) in a rural area, we have roads way worse than this. I've driven tow truck and have done a lot of rough areas, it is very difficult. My neighbor house sold and the new owners re did the 100 year old house. They had the local lumber house deliver twice. First time the driver was alone and I let him park on my frontage strip to get him off the highway. I even put on my bright vest and directed traffic so he could unload. We live right at the end of a s turn on the upper highway. I even let him use my drive and a solid crossover path for his lift ( my side is less steep and has more width) he was very appreciative. Next load was drywall and such finish supplies. He did bring a helper and it was easier to direct both lanes of traffic this time. Even on my less steep concrete driveway, I was surprised by how much tire skid he had while braking. We kind of became friends and he came back to say thanks. I can definitely sympathize with some of the issues you encounter. It always pays to do a good but safe job.
I didn’t even know you should TIP! So the sales delivery team preemptively kinda screws you out of it , when your expecting it to be put in your garage(b/c you were told “no problem”…So when u can’t due to 1000% understandable reasons ,the buyer isn’t probably thinking about a tip( if they knew in the first place). I’ve seriously learning something new every other video I find . 😆😅🤞🏼
He’s lucky it wasn’t me delivering because you’re a SAINT. After his attitude he would have gotten curbside delivery and the closer to the road the better.
You did Super Excellent Job . Better than I can do and very professional and Great Job. You. do Not need get your truck and trailer stuck in someone yard or land plus cost of of getting your Rig towed out if you get stuck and liability for property damage for the person's yard or the customers ground so you made the right call
I'm not sure what you people are watching..... but the driver did cut straps that are used to secure the product. It doesn't appear that he unloaded it in the same way as it was loaded. Now perhaps the loading was done with a far more capable machine, hence the tipping, however, the combination of cutting straps and rough unloading could have caused the damage. Maybe you should consider denying the load if the supplier doesn't accommodate your equipments limitations. I would definitely conclude that all three parties where at fault here.
It is amazing how jerky so many people seem to be these days. You are a true professional who does a good safe job of delivering the loads and you deal pretty well with some very hard to deal with people.
I had a HD delivery driver tip the Moffatt while delivering a skid of Hardie Panel on my flat asphalt driveway. He hit his head and needed to call another Moffatt to tip him back upright. Good call on that one!
That hardi cement siding is definitely very heavy, and more brittle than wood. Personally I'm still skeptical on how long the paint will hold up on these boards, and if installed incorrectly with no flashing or no sealing of the cut ends, it will absorb water easily and then falls apart. I definitely would be careful. If that siding drops it will definitely break and it's quite expensive
Hardie plank siding is #1 durable, must be installed by the pros, proper sealing of cut ends, flashing behind each joint, with the supplied paint from hardie, the "color plus" stuff has a 15 year warranty on the paint, 30 year on the boards them selves, great stuff, just had it done on my house, it's HEAVY, one 12ft long 8" piece is un believable weight, the guys that install it, really need to know their stuff, flashed and caulked in only places as per Hardie, with correct color matched caulk, and nailed to spec as per Hardie...
Some people don’t realize how heavy equipment is. Me as a tow truck operator, I get people say oh I drive my pick up truck down it. I’m in an F650 big difference
I work in residential construction, we have a skid steer to move materials just for situations like this, we rent lifts when we need them, it’s part of the job. The delivery guys job is to get it to the site, not to stock the job out for you.
had a build up in the mountains up some crazy switch backs and mud and this female driver came up a few times and got the load right onto the site. she had talent.
@@SaffordDelivery I don't think you understand mathematics. If your baseline is delivery curbside and you deliver curbside then you have given 100% However if you change the baseline and say I'm going to deliver it to the house. You have still given 100%. You are great at your job which is logistics. I am great at my job which is being a mathematics professor.
I would have taken the 100. The big box stores and their curbside delivery is embarrassing to the rest of the industry. Been on many jobsites where the customer is surprised and so thankful that we got their material where they need it many times saying the other guys wouldn't go that far. Most of these deliveries look like the operator does not have complete and proper training to operate a Moffett. That machine can do so much more.
Did that road get worse from were you unloaded it? That Benjamin though lol. I think you should of put the load all in same spot I agree with you but spreading it out looks like you could of went to the end.
Hardie Plank siding is HEAVY!!! I had it installed on my house last year, great stuff, lasts forever, needs be installed by the experts, installation matters.
I guess I'm either missing something or I'm confused, one or the other or a combination of both. When I first started learning to drive a forklift I was taught to ALWAYS drive with the radiator into the wind.
@@SaffordDelivery ... radiator into the wind makes no sense because all equipment has a pusher style fan, which means it blows outward no matter which way you face.
@@rupe53 I suspect it's nothing to do with engine cooling rather than direction of travel. Unless you're picking up or setting down a load, best practice is to drive the forklift with the load behind you so you can see where the hell you're going. To tell a newbee to drive with the rad into the wind was probably an easy way to remember.
@@retiree1033 ... the real answer is to drive with the load facing up hill so if you hit a bump or pothole the load doesn't slide off the forks. As someone who used a forklift for 25 years I would say 90% of the time the load is short enough that driving forward is not an issue for visibility. On a tall load you have the option to go in reverse and having a spotter is also a good idea. BTW, driving into the wind for cooling is a non-issue. (I also worked on these things)

Would’ve been an easy $100 bucks, I don’t think he’d be liable if it’s damaged, customer gave consent to bring it down there on film, but I get his concern, but as a construction worker I’ll gladly drive the forklift anywhere I guess 😂 as long as I can sit down and chill and drive for a little bit haha

If he don't like the deliver he can always come by the store with a goose neck equipment trailer and pick the load up himself
You can say that again Brian
Or he can buy from a company that has a real delivery driver instead if this punk

Alot of those type of customers rely on people being desperate. This guy was a half idiot. 100.00 is chump change today. Not even close to being worth the headache.
PREACH!!! Never work in a restaurant, it will give you PTSD, straight up.
Respect going to you because of you always being a professional even when customers try to get you to things that are unprofessional
My wife is a market manager all the drivers love her as their manager she will drive out to addresses to disqualify them she also will follow the drivers and deal with the customers. She tells the stores to pound sand for the drivers. Imagine making deliveries in Los Angeles just as difficult as country roads
Don't know why I find this so interesting, true professional.
So many people think oh this guy is a delivery man. But don't stop to think I'm a college grad and this guy is stupid for not delivering it to my door not realizing that oh hey they truck will crack the driveway roll over ruin the delivery.
You're already driving through potholes up the driveway why not just check the rest of the driveway out and help them out and make some extra cash I'm sure as long as it's good enough driveway why not do it
It's like being his co pilot
@@ModernCountry365 would You walk a quarter mile inspecting the whole road to verify the safety, know all that time will be taken from your workday?? Also you heard nothing he said throughout the video,did you?? Liability.
Dude does good narration. Puts you in there with him.
11:01 Dude I am my boss. Powerful and motivational shit right there.
I just want to say that when I first found this channel I kind of thought , Man , He could have helped that guy out & He didn't. Then as I saw more & more videos , I started to understand why He cant help some of those People. Now I feel for the Guy. He is kind of stuck being "That Guy" , as He is the Guy between the shipper & the customer. I really respect the way He handles Himself while dealing with the customers. I mean , the Guys job is difficult enough without having deal with that crap. Also very smart to only accept a tip when the job is done. There is a 100% difference between a tip for a job well done , & someone trying bribe You to do something , before the straps are even off. I would compare it to someone tipping a waiter before they order food at a restaurant , it just doesn't happen. Always enjoy your videos Man.
I have actually tipped my waiter before receiving service, just a few times to see what its like. Takes away the whole dynamic of seeing the bill and trying to work out whats what.
He is that guy, he is not professional at all, he just stays calm, there's a difference, this guy is all about "that's not my job". No responsibility, not worried about anything but getting views on TH-cam. Your first impression was probably correct. They usually are.
@@anotherbeard667
BS...GTFO...if he'd have dropped the load what would the "poor" customer do?
You know damn well he'd refuse the order and claim the delivery guy was reckless. Or he'd wait until he leaves and then take a bunch of pictures and do everything in his power to screw over a guy who has to actually work for a living. Just because he didn't risk his equipment and the load at the request of some guy for a measly 100.00 that barely covers 2 people on a fancy date now. The ONLY scenario this guy had to do right is exactly what he did.
You're probably one of those rich azzholez who get pissed in these situations but don't think twice about what a real working man has to do to survive. Or about costing him his job while you sip your wine or martinis.
Calling him lazy because he did his job. FU! Can't stand pricks like you.
@@shaunofthedead3000 know how i got rich? By being professional. He has a body cam. You missed that part apparently. The camera records. That's its job. The body cam would show that it was damaged before delivery therefore negating any liabilities on the drivers part. It wouldn't matter what pics the customer took at that point. This is very simple 1+1 type of math which you, ma'am seem to be having difficulty figuring out. I've left these comments sincerely trying to help this man and his business by pointing some things out that could help him improve, why are you mad? Who are you? Are you in the video?
@@anotherbeard667 Being professional is doing what your business' description exactly says, no more, no less. In his case, CURBSIDE DELIVERY. Weighing the risks of doing something extra, do or don't, is being professional. Tell me your definition of being professional.

I couldn’t tell what the man said as he walked away. I figured he was mouthing off, because he didn’t get his way. $100 wouldn’t be enough to cover the possible damage to his truck.
do what you can : in a safe and timely manor in order to help out a customer if it can be done ... but $100 won't cover your liability in case you run into a situation that can do damage to property or product

It won't cover getting stuck in the mud 1/2 mile off the road, for the better part of the day.
7:45, so if He can afford all that renovations material, he can afford to put some gravel in the potholes. And you still don’t even have to go up the property because it is a roadside delivery like you said.
You're good for recording your deliveries. Dealing with some ppl expect everything they can get. I would enjoy working for a Company that has a Supervisor such as yourself. I learned decades before my accident there are a lot of nice people and others that are out to get all of anything they can out of you making out as though a driver owes them something just because they bought something in a store. Level headed-ness.

Hi from Ireland 🇮🇪 and it’s nice to see a machine manufactured in Ireland doing a good job in the USA 🇺🇸
every piece of machinery i have ever seen made in Ireland has been quality
Cool I didn't know those were made in Ireland .. awesome machines.. additionally did my dna I'm 15% Irish
The weight is incredible even before the load, and imagine the brakes, the steering etc, amazing machines, but stressful when blocked by a car or bad customer
I could write a book about delivering to a Walmart super warehouse, The pain is real LOL
any good stories?
Sub’d
I would have left it all by the tree at the driveway. You are way above the call and sadly no one appreciates it. Thanks for another great video.

Love the new introduction You know you do your best everyday This guy should have known from the last time it wasn't going to go his way Thanks for sharing Mike 👍
$$ ahead of time is a bribe. $$ after the job is a tip.
I loved that part at the beginning when the $100 is offered.
Sorry sir, I can't do that. It weighs too much to be on uneven ground for much more than a few seconds. And don't even get me started on how far back your house is. No, I'm sorry, but this thing says curbside delivery ONLY, which means I'm not supposed to go any further than the curb.
Dude, I'll give you $100 right now, cash.
$100? Are you serious? Why didn't you say so in the first place. Sure I'm in for $100. That's a pretty fair risk to take and makes all the difference in the world as far as my own, as well as the shipping company's, as well as the store's all combined liability. There's a few $100k worth of equipment that I need, every day, in order to make my living. Plus there's what ever the destruction of your supplies on the trailer, Plus whatever damage I do to your property. Sure, Yeah, $100 ought to make it worth the risk.
Right? Then he'd probably end up calling the company to complain about the service he got and use the 100 bribe against him.
He didn't even bring it to his house? Lmao. That's bogus. I've went down roads way worse than that and made it happen. Like 99 percent of the time everything was good only a few times product was damaged. Also, it would have been way easier and faster to unload by his house probably in same spot. I dunno, that semi could have made it there imo pretty easy. The boards were cracked anyway even tho he didn't drive down there. How does that happen? This is actually crappy, I feel bad for the customer. Imagine paying for all that not even to be dropped of at yer house. For the truck driver to be so much of a whimp to be scared to drive it down a driveway with some potholes. Brah. You wouldn't do so well driving in Alaska that's for sure. Drama queen. Also the fact he tried to make the customer look like he was bribing in this title for just trying to get his product to his house is actually disgusting. That equipment is made for that. He just couldn't be bothered because he doesn't get extra pay. Reminds me of a tow company tbh.

This guys voice makes me wanna ralph.
Second load looked like was nearly going to snap off the forklift. Good job with making sure all of it didn't break
Yeah that plaster board was on some weak ass pallet. The long supporting timber was like 1.5 inches thick. Should be at least 3 inches thick to take the weight. Never have I seen plaster board on such a shoddy supporting pallet.
To the end. You never know how soft that road can be either. Looks to me you are considering all possibilities so that not only the customer gets his load, but that you return Safely Home that Night. Thanks for Sharing. Stay Safe.

Hardie board is used for stucco and backer board for tile installation. I'm a tanker driver that delivers paint to the plants that make this stuff and the binder that basically glues the concrete and fibers together to make the boards. Your exactly right that stuff is extremely heavy . 1 board weighs typically 10 to 20 pounds pending on length and width. Good job driver you do whats right and what is safest.
I drove a concrete truck years ago. Nothing like a super that's an expert at the job I do.
I lived in rural Oregon. We had a construction company. Narrow 1000 ft driveway thru the woods. It had a circle at the top of drive. We got semi deliveries. Those drivers were amazing. Lot of pulling up and backing up to avoid the trees. We applauded as they headed out
There's always a previous injury that reminds me how SAFETY is priority on a job site.
The other day, while digging a ditch in the drizzling rain, my footing became tenuously unstable. I kept sliding in the mud, when I decided to call it quits. The lingering pain is incentive enough to keep mindful of the dangers when you spot them. Ya, sure, the job was late, but time lost from the injury is the worst option.
Get yourself a pair of those Pakistani safety sandals.
That's a new meaning to the ass crack of dawn with the bicycle 🤣😅

Dude i feel you, those mofitts are the most unstable forks going, so even driving to where you are in that driveway is super dodge!!! fair play dude #recordeverything peace out from Ireland
That $100 would look pretty silly in the face of $1000 of damaged product. The more delicate stuff would likely have cracked from the bumpy ride for sure. The bounce you feel on those things is huge compared to a pickup truck driving down a gravel road.
Exactly!

Cheap guy, a triaxle load of 3/4 stone would have that driveway pristine.
You are correct about Hardy siding, it’s very flimsy whilst handling it but it sure does make an outstanding finished product. We install Hardy siding using a roofing gun, nailing every 8-10”. Hardy trim we use a standard 2” trim gun.
Stumbled on your videos and am so glad I did. I haven't done what you're doing, but I have worked as a delivery guy and it is truly amazing what some delivery customers will try.
People are so ignorant. They want to live remote for privacy and solitude...then act like they live on an emoty commercial lot right off the expressway.
All he needs to do is pay day laborers to carry it piece by piece the rest of the way up the drive.
Just one of the expenses that come with the LUXURY of living "in the country/out of the city".
BTW: Tips= To Insure Prompt Service. "Insure" as in "make sure I am covered". Back in the day a "tip" was given in advance in order to incentivize a person to perform above average work.
IMO dude should have handed you that 100 and said "Thank you. I understand your concern about the driveway. I appreciate the hard work you do and will figure out the rest myself".
My comments are really for the people buying the products you haul. Your “Lift” aka Moffett weighs around 7000 pounds & is as wide as your Freight liner truck. People do not realize how treacherous it is hauling product down a narrow wet pot hole road, with bushes & trees on each side. Potentially getting a lift stuck in mud or a wet area with customers order and potentially damaging it is not enjoyable. I like the comment one of your subscribers wrote:about him “getting his own truck with a gooseneck trailer”. The delivery parameters require common safety sense. You truly have that and to be commended for your calm explanation. I did those deliveries for HD & the store associates promised customers orders to be set up on balconies or on a roof or in a back yard over the fence or through a gate not wide enough to drive a lift through. Or carried up the stairs. The Curbside delivery is consistent with the minimum fee of $70.00 they are charged. If one wants to rent a crane to have product put at the job site on an exact spot then thats their option. Keep up the good work. Stay Safe and I truly appreciate your video & commentary. I no longer wanted to deal with the issues you tackle daily. The very few times I got stuck in mud in a yard the customer said “oh I didn’t know it was that moist”. Then trying to tug the lift out of a 2 foot mud bog with my truck & chains. I finally said PhukIt. So I am went back to hauling & delivering on my own terms. No hauling mulch, drywall, pink insulation or fence panels or 20 foot wide lumber. Got to give you accolades for dealing with it. Funny thing was I got tips now and then, usually on the easiest deliveries.
Worst load I ever hauled was cardboard. Not heavy but slippery as all get out. What drivers have to put up with is nuts sometimes.
@@10laws2liveby OSB is pretty bad too, it slides all over the place, you brake too hard and its gone
When I was replacing my roof a couple years ago I had the materials delivered. They said they would deliver the shingles to the roof. I didnt believe them. I was surprised they brought the semi down my road. However they did do exactly what they said they would. The shingles were put on the roof, and the skid of osb was set just inside the garage. It was much better than the last time when I picked up the materials my self, having to carry shingles up a ladder sucks.
My husband is a great woodworker. He has had to have a great deal of materials delivered to customers jobs.

You must share that tractor the seat is nasssty! I share the same truck its a Penske tandem Cascadia and they are truly disgusting. Penske is suppose to wash our trucks but never do and when I ask them to they give me the runaround. One day I got so frustrated I decided to wash the truck my self by hand which sucks wasn't able to get any of the sludge and grease off especially on the tanks. It's a tough call not having a shop or yard with any tools to clean the trucks. I've considered driving home and using my personal equipment but then again it's a company lease and why should I have to use my personal supplies.
This is a much longer video than your previous ones . Thanks
Where I live ( island of Hawaii) in a rural area, we have roads way worse than this. I've driven tow truck and have done a lot of rough areas, it is very difficult. My neighbor house sold and the new owners re did the 100 year old house. They had the local lumber house deliver twice. First time the driver was alone and I let him park on my frontage strip to get him off the highway. I even put on my bright vest and directed traffic so he could unload. We live right at the end of a s turn on the upper highway. I even let him use my drive and a solid crossover path for his lift ( my side is less steep and has more width) he was very appreciative. Next load was drywall and such finish supplies. He did bring a helper and it was easier to direct both lanes of traffic this time. Even on my less steep concrete driveway, I was surprised by how much tire skid he had while braking. We kind of became friends and he came back to say thanks. I can definitely sympathize with some of the issues you encounter. It always pays to do a good but safe job.
Maybe he needs to spend money on the driveway !
I didn’t even know you should TIP! So the sales delivery team preemptively kinda screws you out of it , when your expecting it to be put in your garage(b/c you were told “no problem”…So when u can’t due to 1000% understandable reasons ,the buyer isn’t probably thinking about a tip( if they knew in the first place). I’ve seriously learning something new every other video I find . 😆😅🤞🏼
He’s lucky it wasn’t me delivering because you’re a SAINT. After his attitude he would have gotten curbside delivery and the closer to the road the better.
You did Super Excellent Job .
Better than I can do and very professional and Great Job.
You. do Not need get your truck and trailer stuck in someone yard or land plus cost of of getting your Rig towed out if you get stuck and liability for property damage for the person's yard or the customers ground so you made the right call
People want a cabin way out in the middle of nowhere and don't want to be inconvenienced when they need a service.
I'm not sure what you people are watching..... but the driver did cut straps that are used to secure the product. It doesn't appear that he unloaded it in the same way as it was loaded. Now perhaps the loading was done with a far more capable machine, hence the tipping, however, the combination of cutting straps and rough unloading could have caused the damage. Maybe you should consider denying the load if the supplier doesn't accommodate your equipments limitations. I would definitely conclude that all three parties where at fault here.
It is amazing how jerky so many people seem to be these days. You are a true professional who does a good safe job of delivering the loads and you deal pretty well with some very hard to deal with people.
You know what your doing man! Videos are great.
Na you shoulda took it all the way up to his house, I don’t see the issue
yeah im with this
Absolutely...totally unacceptable
I had a HD delivery driver tip the Moffatt while delivering a skid of Hardie Panel on my flat asphalt driveway. He hit his head and needed to call another Moffatt to tip him back upright. Good call on that one!
What????? That's wild!
Curb side. Amazing the guy has no concept how heavy your load is, let alone his driveway is I'll equipped for a semi
That hardi cement siding is definitely very heavy, and more brittle than wood. Personally I'm still skeptical on how long the paint will hold up on these boards, and if installed incorrectly with no flashing or no sealing of the cut ends, it will absorb water easily and then falls apart. I definitely would be careful. If that siding drops it will definitely break and it's quite expensive
Hardie plank siding is #1 durable, must be installed by the pros, proper sealing of cut ends, flashing behind each joint, with the supplied paint from hardie, the "color plus" stuff has a 15 year warranty on the paint, 30 year on the boards them selves, great stuff, just had it done on my house, it's HEAVY, one 12ft long 8" piece is un believable weight, the guys that install it, really need to know their stuff, flashed and caulked in only places as per Hardie, with correct color matched caulk, and nailed to spec as per Hardie...

I hope you guys get paid well, hope all deliveries dont go like this one.
I would have taken the 100. The big box stores and their curbside delivery is embarrassing to the rest of the industry. Been on many jobsites where the customer is surprised and so thankful that we got their material where they need it many times saying the other guys wouldn't go that far. Most of these deliveries look like the operator does not have complete and proper training to operate a Moffett. That machine can do so much more.
I'm not sure exactly why I'm watching this. But I will be watching more
Did that road get worse from were you unloaded it? That Benjamin though lol. I think you should of put the load all in same spot I agree with you but spreading it out looks like you could of went to the end.

Unless you're picking up or setting down a load, best practice is to drive the forklift with the load behind you so you can see where the hell you're going. To tell a newbee to drive with the rad into the wind was probably an easy way to remember.
@@retiree1033 ... the real answer is to drive with the load facing up hill so if you hit a bump or pothole the load doesn't slide off the forks. As someone who used a forklift for 25 years I would say 90% of the time the load is short enough that driving forward is not an issue for visibility. On a tall load you have the option to go in reverse and having a spotter is also a good idea. BTW, driving into the wind for cooling is a non-issue. (I also worked on these things)
@@rupe53 It would depend on how the radiator was mounted.
The customer didn't even walk down his driveway lol. He drove down to meet you there and thought you would do a bunch of extra work for 100 bucks.
