I love to see this! As I’m sitting in this semi truck exhausted I’m thinking of how I’m about to pivot back to a “normal lifestyle” of having some form of work life balance.. being able to enjoy my home without being OTR for weeks at a time. I’m surely about to start doing some applications for dump truck positions and pray for the best possible outcome🤞🏾🙏🏾
If the Lord is willing I pray that you get hired! With OTR experience, you shouldn't have much trouble at all
@@sidbrant thank you!
Just know at some point you start to miss OTR. It’s a bitter sweet separation
@@Sauce_AV_SWMC I feel that. I can truly say that in a way I’ve grown “attached” to the freedom I feel out here. But I still wanna be home more often. Seems like the only way to have that balance is local or owner op.
i completely understand that fr. I’m now local after 7 years OTR/ western regional and some C.A.N runs. I miss the grind hahaha more then I would like
To admit. Try looking into box trucking.
I'm so glad I came across your channel! I'm looking into Getting into the Dump truck Business. Thank you for This Content.❤️❤️❤️

If the Lord is willing more will be up soon!

I’m about to get my class A, and move to Greenville! Pretty steady work? Here in Chicago, once the winter comes, dump trucks pretty much stop.
Great video 👍🏾
Thank you!
Have you ever watched the podcast Truck N Hustle?! Man it's so good! Rahmel does a great job with his interviews. It's by watching them that i found out about the 💰 in the Dump Truck industry ☝🏽💯🏆
I looked it up and man there's definitely some great knowledge dropped on his podcast! I was checking out the heavy haul stuff
@@sidbrant yeah its a 💎 for sure❗
And here come that old man on a old ford 8 N , standing up hollering and waving in the rearview mirror with that little ball cap looking like deliverance yelling that You dumped that dirt in the wrong place
Hyped for CDL school can’t wait to do this
I hope it goes well! Study that pre-trip lol
You start yet
Thank you for this video !! I'm looking to getting into dump trucks and this was very informative.
I hope it helps!
Thank you for showing how to operate the PTO. I’m looking In to getting an automatic dump truck. I’m currently driving mixer trucks and I’m tired of it.
Great video man. If i may give some advice. Always walk to the back and check your dog ears to make sure they latch. Sometimes they wont catch the tailgate and dont lock it. Better to give it that double check then be liable for a windshield or worse
I actually use to do that but I learned that this truck makes a scraping sound when it latches the tailgate successfully and no sound when it doesn't 😂
I seen that before and hot mix come shooting out back of truck...the hot mix guy be cussing up a storm
❤
Just finished b school. Doing home heating oil delivery. Greenest guy the dude has hired 😅
Congratulations on getting the license and a job!

Hello!
👍
Im about to start working for AC Moate driving dump trucks to. Do you work saturdays as well? How many hours a week? And what time u usually start? Thanks.
Hello Sid. Did you get your Class A even though it's a dump truck
Are majority of the trucks youve seen in this field been automatic transmission?

Just found your channel, fellow dump truck owner operator/vlog creator here 😊 Can you share how you have your camera mounted outside the truck? I've been hesitant to try! Thanks!
Hey! I'm actually a company driver lol, but I use a round base magnet with a bolt through it to attach my gopro mount. I usually will stick it on the bed since it's steel and aim it where I want. The magnet can hold 95lbs I believe so it doesn't go anywhere.
@sidbrant Thank you so much! I didn't think about hanging it with a magnet....I see now that there are some knockoff gopro mounts that already have a magnet too. Safe travels, driver!

What time do you usually get home? 7pm is so late!
Usually around that time, maybe a little earlier.
Just got my cdl finna drive me a dump truck
Do you need an osha to do dump truck?
You just gave me a refreshing course. I'm from sc too, are you still driving?
Yes, tractor trailer now!
What exactly do i need to get a job like this ???
Dam u gotta sit there and burn up? Thats messed up.
Do you have to collect tickets when you get loaded and unloaded so you can get paid??
This job actually pays hourly, not by the load, but we write out load count sheets to keep track of what's being hauled. Quarries give out tickets when we get loads from them
Is dump truck seasonal or all year round ?
Year round
What do y’all do if it rains and very muddy ?
Usually the dump trucks don't move on rainy days. So we either go home early or move equipment around that needs to be moved to another site
Are you driving a stick shift or a automatic? The reason why I ask is because I want to get my class B but I'm wondering if there is alot of automatic truck out there are no?
Automatic, a lot of companies are now switching to automatic trucks. In tractor trailers too.
@@sidbrant hi I'm from srilanka and I want to work with your company can you give any help
If you are gonna spend the money. Get your class A and go to a school where they teach in manuals. The last thing you want is a restricted cdl
Is dump truck seasonal or all year round ?@@TaxationIsTheft439
How much you make per day
Are they hiring ?
How many years of experience do you need to be a cdl driver for this company?
I came in with none
Is that Automatic transmission brother
Yes
Will they hire new cdl holders? I’m currently driving moffett truck at a lumber yard?
Depends on the company, the place I work at did with me!
If you're already driving a Moffett truck combo( class A or B) you're getting experience on what most drivers don't have, Moffett and boom are specialized drivers, it will count positively on your application, plus after 6 month driving you're considered junior driver, no longer a trainee, on your class of course.. but most companies will waste your time, in fact most of us drivers time, sending you, and us. Out with another driver for a couple of weeks.. I think this is a waste of time, couple of days in order to get you acquainted with the job is ok.. more than that is a waste of my time.
@@johnkennedysilveira1323 yes the lumber yard I’m currently working at paid for my cdl course. I just have a regular class b cdl.
That counts as commercial driving experience
@@sidbrant preciate you I’m in South Carolina as well
U need a class A license for this bro ?
I can feel the ass whoopin I’d get if I turned around for a water bottle after passin the gate 😂
That’s South Carolina
Yes
Love your content.
Thank you!
How much experience you need.
I had none
How do you navigate when your g p s doesn't have an address to show?
If I know the general area, I'll ask for landmarks nearby to look for, all depends on the situation though
@@sidbrant Cool.
Cool accent.
Where is that from?
I was raised in the country lol
Do you own this truck?...😆 the water bottle?!
No I don't... Yeah man, gotta stay hydrated 😂
@@sidbrant 😆
I just got my cdl im planing on doing a dump truck too good money
Congratulations on getting your cdl man, I hope it goes well for you! Keep God first and it will!
What peterbilt is that
It's a 567
Man I’m a new driver is it hard to get in the dump truck game with no experience?
I know what you mean man, but it's not just dump trucks. Everyone be wanting you to have a year or more experience is what it seems like. Try looking for a small company that needs drivers, that's where I started.
is that a super 10?
No it was a 6 speed Allison automatic
r u 1099 ?
How did you get on with this company?
I went to their office and applied! They happened to need a driver
