Put something across your back window. Then you will have to get used to using your mirrors. People get in the habit of only looking at 1 viewpoint. Mirrors will tell lots more than just the rear window. Good video! Want to be transporting by the first of the year. Keep the videos coming.please.
Yards are still full and they have every one of them back open. Things are looking better hope all is well with you haven't seen any new content or passed you out on the road in a while.
Was watching a YT video this weekend of a guy that was counting container ships setting off the coast waiting to get into the port of LA. He counted 99 container ships waiting to get in to port of LA to get unloaded. He estimated that between those there were over 500,000 containers waiting. Longshoremen make great money so not sure what hold up is...
I may have watched the same video today(a guy walking along in CA at the ports?) it’ll be interesting to see how the next several months play out in terms of “normal everyday life”!!
Just curious I thought the pull out fee was for the drivers to just get there load and go I would probably have to ask for a refund if I had to move a bunch of trailers to get to mine
What’s the benefit of haul and tow over multi haul? Wouldn’t hauling 3 units pay more? Gonna be getting into the biz but thought I’d go multi haul. Any advice?
Not bad! 7 cents more out west. Are you force dispatched or limited on choice of destinations? Ultimately- I don't feel IT pays their drivers shit, but that's a subjective thing and will vary from person to person.
In terms of parts to work on trucks or relating to freight needing moved!? I definitely think there will be a "second wave" so to speak if all the talk and videos of the shipping container issues persist. I bought a 12v cooler/fridge for my truck about a month ago and keep getting the go around on "give us two more days to check with the shipping.." I had thought it was an "in stock" product according to the sight I bought it off of... 🤦♂️
It appears all the drivers decided to sit home and draw unemployment. 😂 That place looks like the lines at our local drive through restaurants. NOW HIRING!!!
Hope all is well....miss your updates!

I've been driving for a lot of years, usually with a sleeper so no back window. Watch your mirrors. G.O.A.L. Get out and look!
where you been man? we want to hear from you
Hey man where did you go? Haven't seen a video in a while.
I finally got one posted!
why haven,t we seen any rv post from weekend truckin in a while .
Hey Mike! I just uploaded explaining the past 60 days of no uploads and the plan moving forward. It felt good to post again!!!
Yards are still full and they have every one of them back open. Things are looking better hope all is well with you haven't seen any new content or passed you out on the road in a while.
Dude! Where are you?
I finally got a new video up!!
White pigeon is back open

White Pigeon is open and over full too!! Crazy times!
That’s insane! I think I’ve had one single pull and one haul and tow there. I don’t like that yard when it’s empty… I can’t imagine it being full!! 😆
We have about 200 on the board
As of right now yes it is over but another will soon come brace yourself
I had to move 4 units in the middlebury yard before I could even get mine out !
That's rough!!!! I had always feared having a 5th wheel in the way of my unit when I was doing singles since I never bought a 5th wheel!
Just curious I thought the pull out fee was for the drivers to just get there load and go I would probably have to ask for a refund if I had to move a bunch of trailers to get to mine
Glass half-full. Ya got yer exercise in for the day….
Our yards look the same
Good times!! 💰
That yard looks like a nightmare 😂😂
It was, to say the least!! And I heard it’s like it today too!! 😆
You need to get a bigger drone to lift your units out.
Right!!!! 😂

Money to be made!
That's for sure!
I don’t think the parts shortage is quite over just yet. Could and hope I’m wrong. However our main yard looks the same
I feel the same in terms of there being “another” shortage!
Reason why IT got so many load is they outbid other company of their low low rate and they pay their drivers shit
What company are you leased on for, if you don’t me asking? And then what’s your non-CDL west bound rate?
@@WeekendTruckin $1.73 west, everywhere. $1.80 East for single pull
Not bad! 7 cents more out west. Are you force dispatched or limited on choice of destinations? Ultimately- I don't feel IT pays their drivers shit, but that's a subjective thing and will vary from person to person.
@@WeekendTruckin IT pays $1.41 for single pull.
@@WeekendTruckin no forced dispatch, go wherever you want.
Parts shortages seem to be getting worse in the trucking Industry
Better get it while you can.

White pigeon is open limited hrs
I saw someone saying they had a load in White pigeon recently too… but I swear the yard guy said they were closing it a month ago 🤷♂️
@@WeekendTruckin nah on limited hours closes @ 7pm
What is the going rate right now for taking one trailer at a time?
single pulls are around $1.66 going west I believe.
No….far from it …..
It appears all the drivers decided to sit home and draw unemployment. 😂

NOW HIRING!!!
And it's still looking like this from what I just heard from our multi haul guy in the office today!
👍🏽👍🏽
