💞Thanks for watching!! We are happy to have you along with us, discovering the Roads of America and learning about trucking!!🚚🚚🚚
As a 4 wheeler. Im learning alot from watching you two work
Gotta love shippers that load super heavy and don’t let you use the scale
😳😳😳🐾
Only at Jb hunt was the only company that didn't care if you damaged the trailer..I said something to the manager how a brand new trailer already had been hit and he said well they're so big sometimes it happens😂
🤣😂🙋 Somehow? I actually believe it
My hubby and I have picked up there, and dropped off. Lol so very glad we got out of trucking. That place can be nuts
Oh wow! How long were you in trucking? What do you do now, if I may ask?
Always take your time, especially when you backing, Remember backing is always dangerous
Time get out of the snow belt and get that dirty truck polished up …Ramblin Rose deserves it ☝️💪👊
👍👍👍
I hated picking up coke and Budweiser they would always try to overload the trailer.
I would look at the paperwork and could tell it was to heavy, and their attitude was you didn’t weigh it yet! It wasn’t my job to load the trailer, that was their job you would think after loading 1000s of trailers they would know exactly to the can how much they could put on! After the 6th time 3 times each of them playing games and overloading the trailer I told my dispatcher no more loads for me from Budweiser or coke!
Good for you!!!! 👍😃
Nestles motto is “load it til no more will fit”.
😳😆😆😆
Tanya, you're killing me with the commentary..those poor dogs..hilarious...have a beautiful journey!!
👍😆😁😁😆🤩
Good advice on your process to drop empty, makes sense.
Just a suggestion, when checking your seals use your phone and take a picture of the seals. I drive tanker and we have 2 to 3 seals and it’s easier to take a picture. Thanks for the video and stay safe!
I noticed that your trailer ABS light keeps going off. Next time you stop at the truck stop. Look for pigtail shims/sure shim for the 7 wire connector. The package comes with two shims. One for the tuck side and one for the trailer side
Thank you! Appreciate it. But it does that during the light test.
Love those heavy loads. When I pick up there my load was going to tractor supply in Waverly nebraska
Also I always had Gatorade for yard drivers or gat guards.. making fiends make the job easier .
Was a driver when they had 12 trucks Loren decker started the company
My heaviest loads are usually beer. But meat & potatoes rank right up there. They'll send down a hill in no time! As always, travel safely ✌🏼...
Decker not a bad company to drive for.
👍👍👍
If picking up a new trailer after dropping one, Get a seal number., should write the number down on note paper.
Oh good ol fort dodge, I picked up there not long ago, nice HEAVY load
Hello again you guys. Y'all stay safe. God bless you both. 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲
👋👋👋
Hello #Thejoyoftrucking… Have a Blessed, Safe & Fun day. Thank You for sharing!
Stay safe out there.. 🙏😊
I haul 47k pounds regularly but I’m flatbed with spread axle trailer so I don’t have overweight issues but it’s hard to stop and go up and down the hill.
Haha, 46K. I had one of those. I laughed, knew there was no way I could scale it legally with my Volvo. Was well over gross with that one. Anything over 44500 gets very tricky, my last heavy load was 44K, tight but good to go, bad to have the tandems all the way forward, figures! Whole trailer to balance the load out but they’ll always load it front heavy instead. Safe travels, got just a week to go before hometime!!! Been out 5 weeks already
Enjoyed the video today. I like the way Kevin does things. He plans things and puts them into action. Ft dodge is just north of Ames Iowa. This where I was born and lived for seven years.
When they give you the weight of the load, do they include the weight of the pallets? I was caught once when I picked up a load of frozen chickens, and I should have had enough "wiggle room" so I didn't weigh it. Stopped at a closed scale and weighed it and was over weight. I figured out that when the said they were shipping "X" pounds of chicken, that is what it was. That many pounds of chicken. They didn't include either the weight of the cartons or the weight of the pallets. I made it through without getting caught, but was a lesson learned.
I really enjoy your channel. Keep the shinny side up and the dirty side down.
46,000 is a heavy load for a Big sleeper tractor and a 53 ft trailer. Depending on how much fuel ( that's why you got the message) and the type of trailer I have? I'm 34,500 empty. Our Hyundai trailers are heavier than the Wabash and Great Dane trailers we have.
That is the Decker headquarters
I drive a food grade tanker and deliver to Nestle/Purina in Zanesville, Ohio daily.
Hi to Lisa from Decker!! Good job backing that trailer into the spot.
I run Purina loads out of davenport, IA and lockbourn, OH frequently. I have seen you all have been here a time or two.. good pay I'm lease op now soo
My heaviest was water from cabazon arrow head i think.. with Werner .
Nestle Purina just down the street from where my truck broke 😂
Pete 579's are the best looking aero cabs IMO.
I’m a new subscriber to your channel and enjoy the content very much. I was wondering if it was possible and not against company regulations to explain the information Kevin inputs into his tablet when arriving and departures from companies, thank you very much!! Safe Travels!!
Hey there! Welcome to the channel! Thanks for subscribing!! You will notice that we feature that in a lot of videos. Company has no issue with it. 😃👍
Please don't make me have to slide the 5th wheel. Will be here for an hour fighting it with air bars pb buster 😢
Nice Video
That's chicken fat for dog food. Look at Trucking with Rex, Prime tanker.
Stay safe guys.
Hey from Florida
I get A kick outa you guys
👍👍👍😆😃🤗
A place i go old guard company used to fill out entry info. New guard company, now they let me fill it out.
You need to get your new IFTA sticker it’s a red one for 2024.
Since he has his bow on it may be old footage.
20 buck thank you ..when a yard driver says drop it there.. and will put it in ..
Yes it is
I pickup there on occasion expect to weigh roughly 79500
I noticed that you were using your phone to locate a scale. What happened to the Garmin Dezl?
We have it and use it. 🥰 But for looking for scales it’s easy to do on the phone. Easy to reach and use.
Nestle water? They are always heavy loads coming from nestle water and the pay for hauling the loads of water is cheap. Not good.
😳☹️But I believe this was dog food? No?
Hi Kevin and Tanja
Hi from the uk I know all about the nestle loads my company who I work for one of our main contracts is with them and we do all there goods from chocolate the water and there pet foods everything what nestle does
good
Do you guys drive through Fort Myers FL? That's where I live right now. I like to meet you guys If you guys come to Fort Myers, FL. I am working on my class A license right now. I like to know if you guys got any good tips. to help me out to pass my CDL license. I've been watching you guys on youtube My name is Kevin Wyrick Please let me know. any good tips? might help me out. and thank you.

🎉Congratulations!!!!
@@TheJoyofTruckingI really injoy watching your trucking videos on your TH-cam channel
The right term is hostoler not yard dog same a someone building up rr trains iget the slang but I know that you are all about showing respect for the trade
Hostler. Yard dog. Yard jockey. Shifter. Shunt driver. Spotter. All the same. Go away
@wmg33 I don't play with toy trains I built them for EMD
You should never back into a trl don't assume trl is low anough
If you respect these yard drivers like you say don’t call them dogs there hostlers
🤔I guess I didn’t think ‘dogs’ was derogatory. We love dogs. And hostler sounds like hustler to my ears which I do think sounds derogatory. What else can we use? I’ve heard ‘yard goats’. Any other suggestion?
@@TheJoyofTrucking y’all are right there are yard dogs in my 3 yrs of driving I’ll never heard somebody call them hostlers
The Hostler at my yard calls himself 'Yard Dog Dave'
If you respect the English language you know when to use there and they’re
@@Trashman702u wanna be funny 😭 if I notice it I would have changed it
