Here I was, on a busy, congested four lane divided roadway in Ontario, Canada, trying to find an appliance warehouse. According to my GPS, it was right there on my left. To my dismay, the parking lot was very small, and I was fearful of pulling in, for there was not enough room to turn around if I was, indeed, at the wrong address. Well, it WAS the right place, and a very challenging dock to get into. After about 25 times in and out of the truck, doing my G.O.A.L, (get out and look),. and 1/2 hour of time, I finally got her in the dock. I felt a lot better when the dock workers told me that it usually takes drivers anywhere between an hour to an hour and a half to get their truck in. Getting out was a challenge also, with only one inch or so between the corner of the building, and the rear of my trailer.
Brother/Sister truckers, feel free to send/share videos of YOUR nightmare tight docks. Send them as a video response to this one. Thank you for watching, please rate, share, and subscribe! :D

If you bought it, a TRUCKER brought it!

  • Is celadon a good company?? And by the way that was a damn good job you did there!!

  • @deadpool19954 No, they are not, and "thank you for the flowers", :D

  • if you americans would just be a little smarter and not use such big tractors but smaller ones like we have in europe, it would make your lifes a whole lot easier.

    (trailers are about the same lenght)

  • @WNxRadeon Well, we live in those things for anywhere from 2 weeks to months at a time. Yes, it makes it more difficult to get into tight spaces, but on the other hand, we need room inside for clothing, cooking supplies, foodstuffs, etc. :)

  • Hey, You did a Good Job. This is the difference between a professional and a Hobby-driver!

  • @WNxRadeon I wish. The worst place I went to was paterson NJ. a 53" had no bussiness going there at all. I was blocking the whole street while getting unloaded. there was no room to maneuver at all. somehow i did it tho. They really need to make laws about the placeswe can go. Its rediculous what they expect out of us.

  • @NJKatwoman I understand, but most of the times I am also 3-4 weeks away from home in my truck. :P

    I guess we find it normal here because we don't know any different.

  • Well done!

  • that would of been a pain in the cock with a 28ft and a day cab even, I fuckin hate that shit! I work for a food service company as a delivery driver, I go through this bullshit alot, not this bad but pretty tigh spots. I would of never been able to do that. They would of been out there unloading it by hand! thats fucking ridiculous

  • great job getting in and out of there! makes you wonder sometimes what the hell people are thinking when they put docks in places like that

  • Driver ive dealt with docks tighter then that.... U had plenty of room

  • Most shipper recivers dont think about the size of the rig when placing them in loading docks
