    Outrageous loads!

    Alright, I do not know if there is another thread on this topic, but post up the most outrageous, dangerous, or comical loads you've seen while out scrapping. I'll start, I have a picture that I took, but can't find it at the moment. This is a pic I found on imgur.

    I WISH I took a picture of this Dodge Dakota that came rolling up to the shred pile while I was unloading. I swear...the bumper had to be almost on the ground and it was STACKED. Blew my mind.

    Outrageous loads!

    Here's one I saw on big trash night. I really like his truck tho, probably good fuel mileage, and plenty of cargo room, and dat lift gate! In the other side of the refrigerator was a bunch of bikes and mowers.



    This guy had nothing on another fella I saw the next day. F150 stacked at least 15ft above the sides he had installed. Have no idea how he got it up there, no straps, nothing. Couldn't snap a pic because I was about to be run over by the city's 15 ton front end loader putting all the trash into dump trucks. They don't mess around!

    And what is worse is it looks like his right rear tire is a donut spare. That is spooky.

    Or even better is when the same guy borrowed another truck and did it all over again later in the week.

    This one looks like it was a self loader
    Looks like someone forgot to tie the boat to the trailer and this is the result of a panic stop
