    Having hauled fuel for many years, I've always set my proceedures to match the strictest SOP of the racks I go to. Like turning off all lights, the radio and such when I pull up to the gate. No idling when I'm waiting to enter the rack. Chocking the wheels if I get out of the cab and not inside the rack. Doing a walk around to check for hot brakes or flats and empty compartments before entering the rack. Leaving my cell opine in the cab and always be at the emergency shut off while loading. Doing all of those things every time no matter where I was kept me in check all the time even ifnthe facility didn't require it. I'll say this much. At a lot of racks, if they saw you hop out of your truck to get your BOL and left your truck idling, they'd lock you out for 3 or 7 days.

    Nashville must be in the stone age. Their seemingly antiquated systems are not as smooth and seamless as this system. 24 years trucking, mainly OTR and LTL, I decided to try fuel delivery. Definitely have to pay attention to what you're doing, at the point of delivery as well. Great video, my friend.
  • Thank you so much for the video! That for me is one of life's greatest mysteries solved. I always wondered how the oil trucks get filled. Thank you for keeping us moving :)
  • Thanks for all the info. Trying to get started hauling fuel and wanted to learn a little while waiting for the calls

    Thanks for posting the two videos showing us how to load fuel trailers. There are several showing how to u load but few showing how to load.
  • Good video! I started hauling fuel back in the late 80's. Back then there was all leaded gas. You had to make premium and plus and winter blended fuel. They gave you the gallons to blend, but you had to figure it per compartment. Different truck every day, different sizes of compartments. You had to be very careful. There was top loading too. Very dangerous. Your filled vapor lines indicate someone overfilled a tank while delivering. We loaded at about 30 different locations, all different. I worked for a union company and get a pension.

    Hi farout trucking I have respect for what you do because hauling fuel is highly dangerous because of the chemicals in it and God Bless You and Your Family

    Here in Louisiana at Exxon we have to take an empty 5 gallon bucket and open the valve on each compartment and verify they are empty before you can connect the loading arm to the trailer .

    Very informative. I don't do this type of work, but this video is what I would recommend to anyone that does.

    I like this guy, he’s worried about something being dirty after having been washed. Yup, a wash is not the same as detailing!
