  You could have a contract with them. You are a smart business man.

  Brad, don't know what happened to my previous comment. I was saying if you look up Mexican garbage collector pov, you would get so many views. I know you do things your way, but I think that's what a lot of people from one of your videos has shown. We want to see the action man and I believe this channel would explode! ASMR of you simply doing your trash pickup

  I like your efficiency mindset, using the grapple hook to drag heavy items rather than lift them is great, also doing bulk with an under CDL rear loader is next level. Efficient trips. Too bad you can't salvage the scrap metal but that's a tradeoff. Glad to see you're doing more bulk jobs for revenue maximization. And, great talk-through on the question.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGerAGoONpc&amp;t=373">6:13</a> You should see about designing/building a quick attachment with a set of forks on it on to the tipper to help load those heavier items. Work with a local metal fab shop. Would surely make it easier on these bulk items. <br><br>You can mock something up with an old trashcan since it has the attachment points. Cut off the sides, front and bottom. Mount a steel frame to the attachment side of the can with a set of &quot;forks&quot; and voila.

  Some people call him, bulk pick up Brad 😁 I believe its best to use every business vehicle for a many appropriate use cases as possible. Got to have that roi on a truck without using it beyond its intended purpose.

  Rear loaders are designed to be able to handle bulk pickups. You are good to use your truck for bulk pickup. Avoid putting metal, concrete, or rock. I want to utilize a rear loaders for junk removal. Some landfills won&apos;t let you clean your truck out on site.

  Something I am curious about. <br>What is the time difference for loading the truck with &quot;bulk&quot; items vs loading a dump trailer? I only ask because watching the videos you can only load a couple items at a time in the truck and have to wait for it to cycle before you can load more. Where the dump trailer you just toss it all in and you&apos;re on your way. I understand the aspect of the truck being able to compact everything. <br>I think it might be interesting the next time you get a bulk pickup, see how long it takes you to stack everything in a pile behind the truck which would demonstrate the time to load a dump trailer and also demonstrate how &quot;much&quot; stuff is there based on size of pile. And then see how long it takes to load it all in the truck and how big the pile is when you dump the truck. <br><br>I understand you don&apos;t have the dump trailer so its not an option at this point but just as comparisons sake for others. Time = money and the less time you spend loading it all up the more time you have to do other things.
