Delivering the cow's their daily bread in my tipper truck

追加: 2026-05-24

[00:00:00]Hello everybody. Welcome to today's video. Today I'm going to be showing you something a little bit different. I'm going to be picking up a load of processed bread from a factory to go down to a farm in South Wales. So do come with me and enjoy the journey.

[00:00:24]So here we are. We've uh arrived at my loading point. The lorry is just about to uh leave in a moment. That's on the way bridge now. So, I shall uh drive onto the way bridge and weigh in.

[00:00:46]There he goes.

[00:00:58]Well, I know he's off the Bay Bridge. I shall pull on you.

[00:01:14]Yeah. All right. I'm just going to go in and uh and check in and weigh in.

[00:01:31]Okay, so I've weighed in and uh just going to go drive into that uh warehouse which is over to our right hand side there.

[00:01:46]What they do here, they uh will chuck chuck a bail of straw in the back for me, which I have to get in the back and spread around because this bread is actually quite sticky.

[00:01:57]So, we don't want it sticking in the trailer when we uh tip the load off.

[00:02:13]See No.

[00:02:36]So, there we are. He's just put a bail of straw in the back for me.

[00:02:41]So, I've now got to get in the back and spread the straw about.

[00:02:49]So, there we are. We It's bit noisy in here, isn't it? So, we can see he's got his bowl of straw in here already.

[00:03:04]This will stop the load from sticking to the bottom of the floor. basically and we kick it about and just spread it around. So, it's a few inches thick at the front all the way down to the back door.

[00:03:35]Basically, the bread that we're picking up today is all out of date bread or rejected bread from the manufacturers.

[00:03:49]But of course, it all comes in in its packaging. So this plant here, I actually uh strip the uh mash it all all the bread in their packets up. It goes into a machine which you can probably hear going in the background here and then uh little uh separate the bread and the plastic packaging.

[00:04:32]So, as I say, it will separate the bread and the plastic packaging.

[00:04:44]Basically, what we do here, just cover up all the bits of uh floor so it doesn't stick to the floor when we tip. So anyway, as I saying, the plant here, it will separate the bread and all the packaging.

[00:05:15]And uh the bread will then get be delivered and gets used for animal feed which I'm taking it down to a a dairy farm today in in South Wales.

[00:05:38]I've been there a few times.

[00:05:49]So that's the load all all covered over the floor now.

[00:05:55]So I'll just uh do the backup.

[00:06:13]I'll give him the thumbs up. He's going to put one load on now.

[00:06:26]I'll just stand back here for a minute.

[00:06:29]Although I've got to do the back of my door up.

[00:06:57]I'll go now to the uh front of my trailer.

[00:07:04]And I pull the button here to lock the back doors.

[00:07:13]And now the back doors are locked.

[00:07:16]I have to do the all the twist locks on the back door.

[00:07:23]This load will fill up the whole back door basically.

[00:07:28]Uh, this just helps hold the back doors in.

[00:07:40]Here he comes with another load.

[00:08:14]Get out of his way.

[00:08:17]Here's the processed bread just over here that's come in from the factories.

[00:08:22]It's got all the plastic bags still in it. He takes it from there and puts it over there in this machine in the corner there that you can see. And that's uh where it gets chafted up. And they take out all the packaging and it ends up coming out looking very much like this stuff here.

[00:08:45]So this is all a processed bread here as you can see.

[00:08:55]So, we'll just stand up here now and watch him put the next load on. How are you, guys? All right.

[00:09:02]Candid camera.

[00:09:05]So, he's just going to put another load on and then we'll sit up here, make a coffee, and be out of his way.

[00:09:40]So before I get into the lorry, I just put my waist scales on that are on the side here.

[00:09:54]That's for when it's ready for when uh he's going to take some from here now cuz that's handy. Look, there we are.

[00:10:13]So this stuff, as you can see, it's sort of bit tacky in there, bit, you know, imagine all the loaves of bread all all chaffed up together. If you squeeze a slice of bread, it goes all solid, doesn't it? This is basically what it's like.

[00:10:33]It's not very dusty at all really cuz uh it's a bit moist the load.

[00:10:51]There we are. I'm going to get in the lorry now. Out of his way.

[00:10:57]So, there we are. He's uh loading uh the trailer up now.

[00:11:04]So then as he's loaded up the front of the trailer, he will then load up the rear end of the trailer of which then I'll turn on my handheld remote control way scales and uh we'll see how heavy it gets. And when he gets to our required weight, I'll give him a little toot and then he'll stop loading and I'll weigh back out again.

[00:11:49]That bliper was because uh one of their staff here has just walked near the front of the lorry. We got all these um distance sensors and motion detectors there. There he is. He's uh pulling it down.

[00:12:20]When I leave here, I have a a 268 mile journey to go to get to my off-road destination.

[00:12:32]As I say, I've offloaded at this farm before. He He's a really nice guy.

[00:12:39]Let's open the window a little bit here, shall we?

[00:13:18]So, looking at the load on the back through the um trailer camera, he's Almost see I think he's actually finished loading the front.

[00:13:31]I would have thought he'd start loading the back now.

[00:13:37]There we are. As you can see just about here on the wall how moist the stuff is that is actually loading. Now he's taken that load away from the wall. You can see it sort of made the wall there damp.

[00:13:56]There's a little forklift just coming round. It's going to be coming right in front of us.

[00:14:30]So, because he's put quite a few in the back there, now I'm going to put my PTO on.

[00:14:38]There's the PTO. I'm going to lift the trailer up a little bit.

[00:14:54]And we'll have a look now to see how much is in the back of the trailer.

[00:15:00]So, we've got about 18 just under 18 and 12 ton on there at the moment. So, I will leave the um trailer up in the air and we'll just monitor how much weight he's putting on.

[00:15:16]gradually.

[00:15:19]If you know what brown sugar is like, basically this stuff runs. It's got the consistency of brown sugar but a bit lumpier.

[00:15:31]So, here he goes. He's just about to put another load on now.

[00:15:38]There it comes.

[00:15:51]So, it's just under two ton a bucket roughly.

[00:15:55]So, I'm going to get this up to about just under 29 ton roughly.

[00:16:02]So, I'll just uh give him a a signal of two out the window here.

[00:16:12]So, we've got uh just on 27 ton at the the moment.

[00:16:18]And what we do, as you know, we uh we nibble it on. So, I'm just going to watch them on with this last load.

[00:16:30]Okay. So, we have our load on now. But before we reverse back, I actually put the uh the sheet over There we are. That's the sheet back over. So, I'll reverse back out of the uh out of the factory here and go back onto the way bridge.

[00:17:16]Well, there we are. That's our load from the factory of processed bread. I'm just pulling off of the way bridge.

[00:17:23]We're weighing out at 43 tons, 860.

[00:17:33]So I have just under 28 and a half ton of processed bread on here for the farm.

[00:17:46]Ever so nice chaps in there.

[00:17:51]It's a regular place that we go to to to load up.

[00:17:58]Can get a bit tight sometimes when we drive out of here. It's There we are. We got a lorry parked here. So, this is another tight one, but we should be all right. He's parked in enough given enough enough space there. So, that's all right.

[00:18:15]Plenty of room. But sometimes they they have a couple of lorries here.

[00:18:28]There we are.

[00:18:31]There we are. All right. So, I shall see you through the journey.

[00:18:38]Okay. So, we're just going to come out onto the public road now and then it's a short little trip up to the roundabout where we join the M11.

[00:18:50]And uh basically from there on it'll be motorway and dual carriageways all the way.

[00:18:59]All right.

[00:19:50]That house right in front of us as I speak, that is the farmhouse.

[00:20:03]That one there. It's a nice nice little place. It's a tight little place to get into this one.

[00:20:53]Well, I'm just going to reverse in now to my offloading area.

[00:21:04]So there we are. We're in position here.

[00:21:12]So all I do now is I unlock the the twist locks if you can't rely on these air locks.

[00:21:34]And now what I'll do is I'll open up the air lock.

[00:21:49]So on goes the PTO and hopefully out goes the trailer.

[00:21:56]I'll have to get in the back of here and sweep it out in a moment.

[00:22:01]All I know is tomorrow morning I've got to head down towards Port Holbert to get loaded up. I don't know what I'm loading up in the morning.

[00:22:11]So, you can see the back door swung open now. As you can see, the front of the trailer is going up high.

[00:22:19]And hopefully the straw that I put on the bottom of the floor of the trailer this morning will help it slide. Here it goes. I can see it coming out now.

[00:22:31]Look at that.

[00:22:33]So I pull forward slowly and you can probably just see the straw dropping down at the bottom.

[00:23:01]I can see there by using the camera inside. I can see there's a little bit left at the back. So, I'm going to have to give it a little bit of a shunt.

[00:23:10]There it comes. Just dribbling off now.

[00:23:14]There we go. That side out all together.

[00:23:23]There we go. Give it a nice bang like that. It'll help loosen up if there's anything left in there.

[00:23:34]So, I'll start to lower it down now.

[00:23:39]So, now that the uh trailer is empty, what I'll do now is I'll just lower the back of the front of the trailer so I can climb in the back and give it a sweep out.

[00:24:06]This is why I put the straw there normally because it gets caught on the on the handrail there.

[00:24:14]There we are. Right. So, I'm just going to climb up into the trailer so I can give it a sweep out.

[00:24:28]As you can see, I've left this left the uh sheet on isn't a problem.

[00:24:36]It smells very yeasty.

[00:24:40]So, I guess if I don't know what I'm picking up in the morning, I give the sides a quick sweep off.

[00:24:52]You can see how sticky this stuff is.

[00:25:36]And just make sure there's no bread or anything little bits.

[00:25:44]sticking around here.

[00:25:50]Hard H hardly anything on the on the bumper.

[00:25:56]That's that.

[00:26:00]and then a bit of a a clean up of the back door and then it'll be a case of doing the back door up.

[00:26:15]So, I'm sure you can all remember, do one up and then go up to the front and pull the air button to do the lock.

[00:26:45]And then we go around and I'll do up my twist locks.

[00:27:12]And that's it. That's my load done.

[00:27:15]See, the back is all nice and clean.
