EdsTowing Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Had some bad storms come through the other day and it blew this trailer over in to another one... Had 1 of my guys come help with the little truck so I could control it. I didn't want to bend the landing gear up on it so I lifted the trailer & spun it... Easy job, then we had another on property that the landing gear failed & it nosed down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TowZone Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 That had to be some strong wind. Are those trailers currently in use, cause it looks a bit worn down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdsTowing Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 No these are for storage only...they have a hundred or more at the DC for seasonal items & what not. The one that dropped was actually going for scrap... Doesn't matter to me...all pays the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdsTowing Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 Got a call yesterday, I guess their salvage guy came to pick up the trailer. He pulled it out in to the lane & it had a brake hanging up. So he left it and they had someone come look at it....and ended up cutting the chamber rods so it would roll. So later a switcher came over to move it out of the lane and when he hit the pin the trailer took off & fell off the stands! I just went over with my little truck & set it back on stands again. I offered to hold it and have them back under it but they said just to prop it up again.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooresbp Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Amazing what not having brakes will do!! George - - Moore's BP We'll see you on down the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecruzllc Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Funny but it sounds like someone did not use their God given brains that day. He should have chocked it knowing that it had no parking brakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
