- When you have a tight time frame and close to 4 million cubic yards to move you call in Peed Equipment Company to bring in some of their large fleet of CATERPILLAR 657 and 651 scrapers to get it done! In this clip the spread is moving 50,000 cubic yards per 8 hour day to the rear stock pile which is a 7500' one way haul / roughly 2.5 mile round trip.

To walk out on that site and smell the fresh dirt and the diesel fumes and a soft breeze on your face and hearing those monsters working is like heaven on earth. The scope of this job is tremendous and I’d love to be part of this. I helped build up levies once using the Army pans and moved from pan to dozer finally to graders. Loved every moment of that job.
Couldn't ask for better material to scrape up. Watching them is a better sleeping pill than listening to ocean waves or babbling brooks . Phone fell right out of my hand ! Nighty night.
The most impressive thing is that company found that many employees willing to run scrapers and that are actually good enough to do the job.

I've had union operator's and I can't say they are any better than non union, we end up send 5 back to the hall for every 1 we keep. At least thats from my neck of the woods dealing with local 18
@@zymkriger Sure you send 5 of 6 back. If BS were dynamite, you could blow up Ohio.
@@Rickimusic sounds like someone got triggered. Sometimes the truth hurts.
Great video. I can't believe the number of scrapers. Thanx for sharin'.
Beautiful sight even in troubling times
@Mar~Bear GOOD! Hopefully you'll be one of them to go in there!
What troubling times?
Love watching scrapers work. Especially when it goes smoothly.
Best way to move dirt.
Being a old Scraper man I totally agree 👍
Very nice video with the drone. Loved the late afternoon setting sun. Just a beautiful video. I have to agree a time lapse camera setup to add time lapse video would be amazing. Sure looked like a beautiful day to be operating and working. Thanks for a nice video in odd time we have in the world. These videos really help us folks locked up in our homes
Love these videos CAL. It's music to my ears.
Look at that vast land of beautiful soft soil. If I had to reset a single fence post, i would hit a 30 pound rock in the first 5 inches.
But then again ...I guess these big boys make everything look like soft soil.
I lived out there That ground has to be soaked for months and ripped with big Cats...California dirt is like concrete...It's so dry; the ground turns to stone practically...It's TERRIBLE dirt...
Call it beautiful now, it's gonna be filled with everyone's garbage soon and ruin it.
These videos just keep getting better 👍🏻
It is awesome to see what you can get done team work and the right tools for the job!!
I call this: The 657 Ballet. awesome footage!
Would love to see some time lapse footage to show how much a fleet like this moves in a day, or in a week. Watch the hilltops flatten or the valleys widen.
Zyzzyx42 I was just thinking the same thing!
At my job we had 2 57s and 2 37s and we were moving 10k yds a day
The description says 50,000 yards in an 8 hour day, but it would be nice to the difference from one day to the next, or from Monday to Friday.
If you watch it on 2x speed they are really move some dirt, and it looks like they are driving highway speeds on the strait away to unload.

@@BillRayDrums what???
Well, I'm impressed!
Engineer: " we need to make a new cell." How many scrapers do we need?"
Construction company: yes

OKS !!! GREAT VIDEOS !!! THANKS !!! Very enjoyable as sure does pass the time !!! Keep them coming !! Belated HAPPY EASTER !!!! ""KEEP IT SAFE ""!!!
I love these vids. I miss site work too.
Me too !
Love the drone work.
Land fill Cell? You mean another hole in the ground is needed for Garbage! Got it,Lol. Love the scraper work.
Great work
It would be quite a walk to get to your scraper in the morning!
Haven't seen one of them covering up a full with trash tract yet. I bet that's some slow nasty shit. This is awesome.
For somebody who don't know what they're doing, this equipment seriously dangerous, but people who've been running these machines for a while know they're doin.
Incredball machines ilove scraypers 👏👏👏😍
OH WOW,UNBELIEVABLE, THIS IS WHAT TH-cam WAS DESIGNED FOR, JUST LOST FOR WORDS
WOW ! Thats insane! Great video. Thanks for posting.
The sound of power...nuff said
Up here in the North East we dream of working sites with material like that. I swear every site we get into is either hard pack glacial till/blue clay or ledge.
I know what you mean dude. Moved from CT to Fl. The dirt down here a machine will last forever. No boulders or potatoes in the dig.
Still softer than Cali dirt...
I love it
Very impressive
Máquina monstra 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Think of the other aspects of this job.
1) The amount of fuel used
2) The number of oil changes
3) The number of mechanics to keep that fleet going.
4) The amount of grease
I have no doubt whatsoever that there is a lot more to this list.
simply amazing what goes into one of these jobs thanks for sharing the video.
They need to ship these on down to Puerto Rico to build about five more dumps.
Welcome to "What am I up to during quarantine?"
What a site that is. I’ve never seen so many scrappers on a job before.
I imagine a full sized tanker truck of diesel fuel, maybe two, pulls into the job site every day.
นี่ใช่ไหมเขาเรียกว่ามนต์เสน่ห์ของเครื่องจักรกลหนัก สุดยอดเยี่ยมขอชื่นชมครับผม
Give us the overall data for this job. Also before and after pics.
Love your videos.
Worked at a landfill where we captured the methane gas which powered up a 9 MW power plant on site , used 3 Solar Centaur Gas Turbines 24/7
Menomonee falls wi landfill powers a neighborhood and an incinerator that burns medical waste.
One of the most impressive things about this is each one of those cost a little under 700,000 USD.
No doubt, requires a lot of taxpayer dollars to operate a landfill.
What a logistics nightmare it must be moving all that equipment.
Beast machines
grandiose ! super vidéo comme d'habitude...👍👍👍
A sketch of of the Result would have been interesting. (how deep, how big theo new landfill)-
The excavatio material would be also interesting, it is probably used in 40 years to close the landfill
Relaxing
Great video of fantastic machines!!
Strang landfills are still used in the US. Here in Belgium we incinerate everything, except for recycling of course. Because inevitably you' run out of space with landfills and you're stuck with the garbage in the ground.
So instead of garbage in the ground, you put garbage in the air (incinerating) and share with down wind residents? Holy shit, China has moved in!!
@@8ftbed Yes and you still have to landfill the ash. That stuff can be nasty.
We have a lot of ground. You dont. That's what affects the decision.
Pretty amazing to see all of the scrapers. Though scary to think the size of cell needed that’s a lot of waste.
California? Yeah, a lot of waste. 👍🏻
Was thinking the same
id love to be the guy they rented all the units from
Now that's a wack of iron!
California land of scrapers. I haul to some landfills in Utah they are filling old open pit mines. Much more efficient when available. It's fun to watch this and impressive but as an owner the costs to operate and maintain or rent these is unbelievable. I just got a 100 lot subdivision here and told owner we won't touch lots, let builders do it. Sewer, water, curb n gutter, sidewalk, pave it, power, gas and where done. About 5 pieces. Very little fuel. I own 2 scrapers we haven't used in 3 years. Work is shifting.
Nice Thanks
I’d hate to write the rental check for the equipment every month.
KICK ASS VIDEO!!!!!!!!!
Just imagine the fuel bill for one day! Awesome video.
No shit! Couldn't imagine a weeks fuel used?
@@davenickel2448 i think in part1 some guy said at that level expecting $30-40k diesel per day
This answers a few questions.
Jaypaydirt would be all over this I bet.
Наивысшая производительность!
Poetry in motion...... but hard to see how excavators wouldn’t make more sense......???
I’m pretty sure I saw these things in the second transformers movie when they combined to make devastator.
How deep are you digging? Looks like 50-100 feet deep?
I worked a lot with moto scrapers in Brasil but There isn' t currently big works like before.Today I work as an heavy equipment operateur in an Europe country. Sou brasileiro e trabalho em França. Com escavadeira hidráulica..bom de mais ver obras desse porte..obrigado..?!
Can't imagine the cost per day to do this!
Why do the scrapers need a push from a tractor or another loader? Do they have insufficient horsepower to make the cut without a push? Can they do a lighter cut for a longer area without a push/pull?
Are they working 3 eight hour shifts?

Nice video, it's not something you get to see every day!
This must be Gaven Newsom idea to build the landfill in and upper end of a valley ? This Is Amazing work
Millions of dollars to haul garbage in here. Who cares as long as operators are getting paid
CA Governor Newsom is a Socialist giving away hard earned taxpayer dollars to illegal immigrants. I don't know how he was elected. 75 Million Dollars of your tax paid dollars will soon be given to Illegal Immigrants in CA, approved by Gov Newsom. Illegal Immigrants ARE NOT UNDOCUMENTED. Their immigration status is clearly known. They either entered this country Illegally or they overstayed their Visa time limit. Meanwhile, Americans are living on the street homeless and paying for the Immigrants to live inside subsidized housing. www.sfgate.com/news/article/California-Offers-First-COVID-19-Cash-Aid-to-15278546.php?CMS+Sharing+Tools+%28Desktop%29&fbclid=IwAR0_fDvUCHOnnLrgJHGiOto08t9HgURCt17Ay4PDd6_WONxI2s2CMRzaxzk
Wonder what hourly operating cost of this operation is
How many scrapers total?
Hand how much fuel daily?
Im on THAT Job
I wish I was !
Do you pair up partner for the day to push pull? Or is it a free for all in the cut?
Where is it? People keep asking and nobody answers the question.
@@Mr62biscayne all I said was, I wish I was ! Have no idea where the job site was !
@@davoupnya3202 sorry I was asking steel9777 who said he works there
Landfill! I was thinking hwy. What's that excavator doing off in the distance?
They actually seem pretty fast when they’re driving to the location
I can't say much for the 651's and 57's but I run a Terex pan, same size as a Cat 627 about, and I can get 32 MPH out of it, so these are pushing about 35 maybe more.
Go into the settings menue on the bottom right and speed it up too X2 and it looks great seeing them beevering away.
Did they soak down that area because of a different composition of soil?
...WoW...👍🤘
Has anyone ever heard of LOPEZ CANYON landfill ? It's at the end of the 118 freeway in SoCal.
I'm guessing that either the environmentalists of CA don't know about this project or choose to ignore it? The amount of fuel being burnt in a day, the amount of land being relocated and the fact they're going to fill this hole with garbage has to piss someone off.
Christ man how many Scrapers have this Company got, There's sure a big inventry of machines on this job. How much fuel do they burn a day.?
Här snackar vi om massförflyttning............!!!!
Hur många m3 /Tim??
Hey those guys deserve some peed hats.
No wonder why it costs so much to dispose of solid waste. All those millions of dollars in operators and equipment, fuel, maintenance and all of the other related costs just to operate a fleet that large every single day. The contractor must have to maintain a razor sharp work schedule to stay in budget for a dirt job this big.
It’s like a military assault on dirt!
How many scrapers and where ??
I have often wondered how/why the call is made to use 651’s and push-cats vs. 657’s teamed-up. I see the 51’s on hill work, on the flats on big jobs and everywhere the 57’s work. Is it because 57’s aren’t available? I’m not smart enough to figure out the application difference(s). Can you enlighten? Love all the SoCal videos.
657s are self loading because they hook up. Front tractor loads first while back scraper pushes him. And then front scraper pulls while rear loads. 651 is called conventional single engine. They have to be pushed with a dozer to get a load. It’s a slower process and the single engine scraper gets lapped in the hills.
Damm!! 😳😳
What amount of diesel would be consumed per day?
Dying of curiosity to know where this is. WHERE IS IT!??!
Maquinas maravillosas,si pudieran enfocar dentro de la tolva para ver como trabajan se los agradesere
What will be there?
👍👍😎🏁
You can move a lot of dirt with 657s
This is best to watch at 2X speed
I was and almost posted a question to comment on verry fast driving!
No hole too deep, no hill to steep
Dude's did I see the fuel truck!!!!!!!!!! Dammmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video and thanks for posting! Love to know how much fuel you go through a day on a job this size.
@rockkitty, maybe 2 tankers! at end of day 2 tankers were filling them all up
G'day
G'night

Is there a reason those connector "A" frames are left down when parked up?
You would rather not leave the pressure on the hydraulic cylinders when in rest. They tend to leak down over time anyways.
If you leave them up and the Hydraulics or air (on a Terex pan) leak out that's about 400 or more pounds dropping on your head.
👍👍
Everyone works. No slackers on this job site.
