It's a Team's Life

Why do you carry so much?

We have found that having extra’s and going the extra miles often makes us available for a load that other Express trucks are not qualified for.   We have five rows of E-Trac, five E-Trac lock bars, 20 E-Trac ratcheting straps, various sizes of 2X4’s and then we start into the good stuff.   We also carry 36 blankets, corner protectors,   special securement devices, E-Trac D rings, and ratchet pad protectors to keep strap from wearing on the freight.   We also have a two wheel dolly that turns into a 4-wheel cart, we have two piano dollies, and a pallet jack.   We added a lift gate and a pusher axle to handle all the additional weight of the lift gate and load securement equipment.   We have added to our equipment as time has went by or as we learned of a new piece of equipment that will make our lives easier.   We often are called upon to use all most every device we have to secure our freight.   We look forward to the loads that require special handling as it is a chance to get out of the truck and work.   We also look forward to the challenge of securing this freight so it will ride securely no matter how rough the road gets.

 

We have found that having all of these extras has paid for itself in the additional loads we are able to carry.
