He's a good man because he's willing to help a bunch of strangers like you and me. God bless this good man. I've learned a lot from him and his videos.
You make me want to come work with you guys. Been driving 17 years running flatbed and you already fixed a ton of my bad habits. Thank you for making me a better driver and I only watched two of your videos.
Thanks for the informative video. I know it was a quick run down but I feel as if I need to watch this a few times. Really Looking to move stacked chassis and for the most part tried looking for some place out of Chicago to teach and train but no luck. Even if I offered to pay for the knowledge I got nowhere. Really appreciate the video now to hopefully find something out of Chicago to get some practice before I consider taking these kind of loads. Safety is priority. Update with recent videos because I'm sure mire people are interested in doing this and doing it right. Thanks
Passando para agradecer pelo teus vídeos, sao de grande importância para nos caminhoneiros, moro em São Paulo Brasil, tenho 63 anos e estou aprendendo contigo, um grande abraço meu irmão.
Thanks again . I have my first stacked trailer load From Cali to Denver was nervous about securement I see some drivers only use straps ..I would not be comfortable driving with only straps on this load .
I've picked up brand new trailers loaded like this and been told straps only. Never had a problem. Also didn't take me 6 hours to secure like Western with their 80 chains and straps.
not sure if anyone gives a damn but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream all the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend for the last couple of months =)
Great video. Thanks for sharing! Rookie question: Is it legal to wrap the flat hook around the rub rail if the starps are supposed to stay inside the rail? If something hits the side of the trailer that the hooks are on, won't it cut the straps?
Dot changed regulation. You no longer have to have behind the rubrail but in my opinion your crazy if you drive with it outside of it. This man here shows you how to do it the right way.
It is a matter of weight rating and securing from movement. Straps usually have lower weight rating so requires more straps. And chains are still required on front and back in an x.
Some people use a crane or a wrecker but I just back one trailer into a loading dock, back the other on top of that one, and then put another trailer in the loading dock and back the double stack onto it to make a triple.
Wrong, you can have one half twist on each side, only a half twist. On taller loads that stops the straps from fluttering or slapping against the load. That is in fact 100 percent legal, the straps will also maintain their tension.
So many things wrong with this video it’s incredible. Chain hooks should point up, NEVER down! DOT requires at least a thumbs width of thread left when done tightening for adjustment when traveling. I had to stop watching because of all the mistakes
how will the hooks point upwards if the chain is routed completely downward? Honest question. Are you saying just put the hook on the stake pocket upward (no teardrop?) Because it’s no way you can do a right side up teardrop to a chain that’s routed entirely downward.
This man is a gift. So much to learn from him and doesn’t miss anything, a true professional

Come join our family! Give us a call at 888-719-3839 to get started.
This man needs a raise.
I have watched several of your videos and they are very informative.
I appreciate all of the work you do making the videos!
Thank you! Happy to help everyone stay safe out there.
I LOVE YOUR VIDS THEY ARE SO CLEAR AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!
Thank you so much for this brother. Doing flatbed 3 yrs but got my first trailer load today and needed this💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Absolutely great video! People still don’t know how to secure stacked trailers. I see it all the time
Nice job Joe! Was always good to work with you😀

Thanks bro you are helping to keep security road and the SECURITY people around USA🇺🇲🇨🇺
Good teaching. Thanks

I have used only straps, 13 of them and transported them from Texas to Canada without any issues. Straps holds just fine.
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing it, I learned a lot that I didn’t know.
This has to be paid top dollar. Competence is, and should be compensated.
Great video! I’d put the hooks closer to where they come through the rub rails, but great video!
God blessed you, good man !
Keep doin this is very helpful
Denzel has fallen on hard times. love your movies bro.
Mr. Joe thanks a lot, this is what we need before take the road. 👏💪

@Harvey Caiden yea, I've been using instaflixxer for since december myself :)
DOT doesn’t require wheels to be chalked,Haul plenty of these.Wheels already chalked,
Thanks for that bro wheeew
Big Joe never fails to educate the ignorant. Good job brother
very educational thanks !!

The straps CC are supposed to be on the inside of the rub rail!
Other Western Express videos also show stuff outside the rub rail. Looks like that's just the way they do things there.
You put the second chain under the first and it now will touch the first chain.
Seems to me western express really likes to damage stake pockets, every chain video the chains are secured at the pockets, why?
Very nice 👌
Can you use coil racks and timbers for wheel chokes
hook the chain hook to the stake pocket it will stay in place that way
Why is it that this video shows chains being put on but that other video the guy only put straps, is it preference?
It is a matter of weight rating and securing from movement. Straps usually have lower weight rating so requires more straps. And chains are still required on front and back in an x.
Whats the legal limit of how many chassis you can stack onto another chassis? What about how many chassis on a flatbed? Thanks,
You can only 13 ,6 tall
I believe that the DOT says that a chain can't be worn by 20%.
How tall was this load??
13,6 talles you run down road with out a permit
How do they get them up there
Some people use a crane or a wrecker but I just back one trailer into a loading dock, back the other on top of that one, and then put another trailer in the loading dock and back the double stack onto it to make a triple.
wrong. No twist on the straps

you can't secure to the rub rail
Depends on the trailer. WE teaches it...and if DOT hated it they’d change it.
All
.
To be a professional you should know you don't hook your straps on your rub rails
So many things wrong with this video it’s incredible. Chain hooks should point up, NEVER down! DOT requires at least a thumbs width of thread left when done tightening for adjustment when traveling. I had to stop watching because of all the mistakes
