Imagine that prime is so cheap they can’t offer hoppers with straps on the doors plus they got stupid singles instead of duals

Nice hopper. Hope everything goes well for you on new venture.

Thank you driver

Trailer looks fancy but other than that im new to it as well

Get ready for endless washouts and beating and poking product that wont come out even with vibrators have fun about the only thing that falls out is corn salt doesnt biofos doesnt cottenseed doesnt peanut hulls dont etc etc learn how to read truck scale a trailer scale they will make you responsible for loading and every product wieghs different the operator will dump product till you tell him to stop its all on you and get it right most times its load an goodbye you are not comin back on to top off if you didnt get it right good luck

@@johnratliff6694he’s exactly right on it all. I’m betting those deivees will think it’s easy until they will have to shovel a load of blood meal, ddg, meat & bone etc. then go washout to load next load & so on on some loads. It takes a different type of person to pull & understand how to run a hopper vs a reefer, open deck, double/triple deck cow trailer

He clearly went to hopper school and knows more than you. Maybe you should just shut up and listen The OP is exactly right.... you need more vibrators and pnumatic air washout systems to run hopper. Good luck Prime!!!

Why complicate things? If there is snow just open the tarp a little so the tarp loosens and the snow breaks apart then close the tarp and take off. let the snow blow off going down the road. and the gage is for the trailer suspension not the drives.

What about if you're parked at a shipper or receiver and it snows overnight and you're only going a couple hundred feet at 10 miles an hour? That's what the snow rake is for

​@@brianmoses7381 So you open the tarp. It's that easy. Never, I mean never have I seen someone use a snow rake on a Tarp. Why doesn't anybody use a snow rak you ask? For one, it's pointless, 2 you can damage the tarp, and 3 it's pointless and you can damage the tarp. I live in Minnesota and I pull a hopper and when it does snow theres a breeze so maybe a dusting to 2 inches in a spot will collect on the tarp but it wont affect the tarp at all. It might be in a bigger roll when it's open but it won't hurt anything.. About the only thing he didn't show you is where to keep the broom/shovel to sweep out the trailer and how to open a tarp when it's windy. Hint, hurricane straps.

So much anger. Who hurt you? So, tell me oh wise hopper dude. What do you do if you're parked at a shipper or receiver overnight and it snows? How do you get your tarp to open?

@growthefarmup2606

5 ай бұрын

@brianmoses7381 chances r, if your parked at a "terminal" overnight it's to dump 1st thing at 5:45-6 am, most terminals are open from 6-4 or 7-5 (except seasonal hours) most "terminals" don't start loading until later in the day. Not all. So you just crack your tarm so you don't suck it in or leave it closed and unload slowly. Then problem solved, it blows off when your goijg down the road. Once you learn a bit about the bulk industry I'll watch you educate me how it works 😉. Lol. If you happen to be parked waiting in line at a terminal in line to load and you get a snow packed tarp, your an idiot. Always park where you have an exit, of chance of snow so you can run the snow off the tarp. Remember your tarp cost probably 5-7 grand. Wait till you unroll it in the wind parked the wrong direction. You just as well cut it off and drive straight to surco tarp shop to get a new one. Can't wait to hear what you'll teach me next. Have you heard of hopper tech? All the good loads in hopper game don't unload and stick in your hopper, your little vibrators won't help when summer comes. But keep educating us on hoppers prime. Appreciate it!!!

Guys that pull hopper trailer like to think they're God's gift to trucking. Like there's no other tru king more skilled than a hopper driver. Probably one of the easiest jobs in driving you can do. Hardly any backing no tight docks. One of the easiest ways to get into trucking.
