I used to go fast like you, after a while if you’re on a busy yard that speedy stuff is for the birds. Nice and steady pace with a 5-10 break in between moves if it’s nonstop when I choose.
whole yard is tight. refers which suck to hook lines to. tight angled alley backs. gas backing. fuck yeah brother I like that! people who arent yard dogs wont recognize the actual finesse that goes into driving like this. making it look easy bro! fuck yeah.
And this layout. Ours has a main lot with double parked trailers and 4 mini- lots and 25 bays. Then we have 2 sandlots and anytime a new or part time guy drops loaded trailer on the sand and it rains, the landing gear sinks into the sand.
or in my case, get a CDL A, then just work as a Jockey. Every Yard Jockey position around here requires you to have it because you have to take the mule on the road to refuel.
That bump in the front looks annoying... I was at it for a while before I moved to other work. My peak was moving 8 trailers in a little over 8-10 minutes and that was with perfect conditions to go as quickly as possible.
Also too a tip, lower the fifth wheel as you’re backing in it’ll hit ground the second you park it where you want to. Helps speed the process. Not putting the blue on is a dangerous game that’s harder to brake your trailer but I get what you’re doing
@@Qjack101 if you were confused you probably needed trained better to know what exactly the air lines are for... The red is all you need to release the brakes and make the trailer moveable. Only problem with that is you have no trailer brakes working when you push your brake pedal. Also no light cable means if it's dark or raining or snowing or whatever else it makes it harder to see for other people, as well as no hazard lights to tell people when you're backing up. On that, to anyone else reading this, yes, your hazards while in a lot should only be used when you're doing something other than driving forward, such as backing up or doing a U-turn etc. All these asshole places that tell you to use your flashers the entire time in the lot are f**king retarded and it takes away the entire point of having signal lighting seeing as how if they're always on its exactly the same as not having them on at all when it comes to telling other people what you're doing. All the f**ktards in this industry make the job less safe and more stupid by the minute.
@@Qjack101 a lot of this trailers are empty and this guy moves them to the docks to get them loaded. The when the Otr truck comes he plugs both cables.
My job would be so much faster if I didn't have to swing doors. I swear I probably walk 13 miles a day just to and from the rear. Same truck , the process is the same. Nicely done.
I can't help but the wonder are you getting paid by the load or are they putting a time frame on you to move a certain amount of trailers like that I'm trying to see what is the hurry.? I understand the experience has grown but I was just wondering why so fast
I worked at an SC Johnson yard on 3rd and it was 8hrs. We didn't have a load quota for the night since it was hourly. However the expected drop/hook times were 6-10 drops an hour for each driver. Some nights it was slow, some nights you do up to 50 moves.
@@Empolo18 i started driving a goat back in 2005 for distribution center , worked there for 7 year and then spent 10 years at a Walmart DC. Expected was 10 moves an hour but we would usually push 13 to 18 an hour. I just got my CDL A and work for a local beer distributor. First day with the trainer he was cracking jokes about having to train the newby...he got pretty quiet after i blind side 90'd into one of the accounts with no pull ups lol.
I'm the complete opposite. I roll 53s all the time so the one day they sent me to a box yard with 40s I was cutting turns so fast. Worst time I ever had 😭😭
am i the only one that doesnt put the parking brake when i hook a trailer haha save that .5 seconds when pushing the air through the brake system before taking off😅 just letting the unit from rolling by holding by the fifth wheel haha
I’ll back in to the trailer put it in drive press the accelerator as I’m lifting the 5th wheel to tug test then I just get yo hook up lines jump in apply spring breaks n I’m gone
It depends on the company you work for and experience, I once new a girl who was getting paid 40 an hour andit was union, but on average I'd say around 21 dollars and up. The most I've gotten paid was 26 an hour
@user-hh9tr1qt8r ... Apply to a body-snatcher company like Lazer Spot, they'll hire anyone regardless of whether or not they can drive or if they're lazy as sh*t or even have more than one remaining brain cell. Get your foot in the door and put up with all the crap for 6 months for some experience, close to the 6 month mark start applying elsewhere.
Lookin back at your fifth wheel too much. Your rear tire flaps are perfect width inline with your trailer. As long as your fifth wheel is raised high enough you can pop under it without looking back and only at your driver side mirror.
@@musclecarsdaily3020 wrong hook up the truck to trailer tug test at the same time you lift up the trailer then get up hook up red line and go ruan makes us hook up both blue and red

This is exactly how me and my fellow yard dogs back in my yard we be gas backin’💨💨💨 🚛🚛🚛
Yoo. I love the quickness. That’s how I like to work ! 👍🏾
Great video man 🔥💯👌🏾
That boy hauling ass lmao bro said fuck a pre trip. Good shit tho!
He’s that quick after only 3 months!? Decent!
easier to raise the trailer then connect gladhand and disconnect gh then lower trailer especially with those reefer units
Ever got out of your rhythm, stab the trailer in, drop the fifth wheel, slap the release....
And, "whap!" Forgot the dang airline...😂
Isn’t that place in Ontario, CA?

I got 1 1/2 with Lazorspot. Now, I am with a different company doing the same thing making $25 an hour!
F lazerspot !
I just got hired at lazor spot. I got my CDL july 19th.
Professional.
Some days i dream of what it must be like to not have to get out and swing doors on every trailer
Are you still a yard goat?

That 13 miles is more than likely 5

Drivers have time schedules. Some days have more movements and more trailers to be moved
Nasty with it Nice man a master Driver.
Well in my case I have 12 hours to move 25 trailer or more lol...after 25 be a lazy ass

At my company we have 40s, 53s & 57s ! Easy money 💪🏾
53s or longer are usually easier to back. Shorter containers throw me off
Only impressive thing speed racers like this impress anyone with is how they havent killed anyone yet.
I would be quick too if I didn’t have to literally search for every trailer.
Damn
Doing that so aggressively
Am tryna get like you
am i the only one that doesnt put the parking brake when i hook a trailer haha save that .5 seconds when pushing the air through the brake system before taking off😅
just letting the unit from rolling by holding by the fifth wheel haha
Haha me too they have these auto cars at my job that are annoying as fuck if you do that when you get up the spring brakes pop out and a alarm sounds
I’ll back in to the trailer put it in drive press the accelerator as I’m lifting the 5th wheel to tug test then I just get yo hook up lines jump in apply spring breaks n I’m gone

bout $18 an hour in outer city Tennessee. $24ish in Nashville or Knoxville.
I could tell you messed up a couple units haha
🤣😆 right!
Only way to learn 😁
Youre going too fast, man
Not fast enough 😑
If You think this is too fast you should see a Walmart batch switch.

Oh hell naw that's too fast but I can tell you been doing this for a while

Thank you for the advice going to look into it
What state you in?
must be nice if you don't have to open and close doors
Yard I work we have to open and close all doors both swing or roll up. And if they don’t slide tandems back we are required to… smh
yard dog ,not goat
The new switch horses suck with that muffler on the right side it’s damn near impossible to see when blindsiding !🤬🤬🤬

Not tugtest, not shot those wheels

I always look back at the 5th wheel with the door open while backing. Left hand on suicide knob and right on 5th wheel lever.
I check all the boxes and am still quicker than you.
No tug test? Risky
Its not risky, it's f**kin stupid.
He is tug testing. He throws it in 6th gear then neutral
No tug test, no trailer inspection. Just fast reckless driving. You seem like an amateur.

Way to fast
no test tug ? looking over shoulder ....you do not have a class a
