Unloading dock???

Post by jwh f-100 »

The pieces are kinda falling together for this trip.. :rocker: cheerleader.gif

One question for kid or someone who knows the area.. Is there a spot I could back my slick off of a flat bed?? It is a flat bed dump but high off the ground. A few feet may be enough..

If not I'll go to a local garage and back it on a roll back to get it down.

Jason, We will find you something. I know where there is a trucking Co with a outside deck for step decks to be loaded and unloaded. it is a few miles away and if that dont work I will find you someplace else. Maybe we can use ramps to drive you off onto my car trailer then back off on the ground. I also know where there is a ditch embankment alongside the road we can use

hey jason, by google maps it looks like there are a bunch of trucking companies right at the end of the street that the hotel is on. maybe one of them has a ramp.
smithway motor express is one of them. maybe give them a shout and see if they have one or know who does.

Jim Hawk trailer is another one with the trucking co's and will have something to help unloading. We will find you something even if we have to bring you up here to my place and build something

Jason, we will figure something like was said. Can I ask though? Why not just drive it out?

Darrell, Thank You but I wouldn't want you to go through the trouble of building something.. I'll probably go to a local garage and back it on a rollback..

Greg,, I figured if I can haul it I will, if not I'll drive it out. I also need room for yuengling...

Jason, I am going to meet with the manager at the hotel today and I will drive around and see what I can find. How far off the ground is the back of the trailer. I bet I could back my car trailer up to the rear of your trailer and use ramps down to mine then pull away and use the ramps to the ground from mine.

About 50"

No worries.. I see there is a garage near by.. I can do the roll back thing or if Michelle has her dovetail trailer there, I'll kindly ask her...
