Bulkloads University: Who actually pays you to move bulk freight? What types of customers are there in the bulk industry? How out of shape am I? What is it like hauling DDG's in a hopper?
In this episode of Bulk Loads University, Rob breaks down one of the most hated jobs in bulk trucking: unloading DDGs (dried distillers grains). You'll see exactly how it's done — big doors, vibrators, clean slope sheets, the right shoes — plus the hard-won tricks that save you from sitting over a pit for 2.5 hours beating a load out of your trailer.
But before the hammer comes out, Rob walks through something every hopper hauler needs to understand: who you actually haul for. Farmers, trading companies, producers, end users, and brokers — how each one pays, how to keep the relationship good, and the "blind BOL" secret most people never get explained to them.
