Traffic Cones

[exotion]

We use them always! We also do not park in any client driveways. If the truck leaks a drop of oil, a trailer ramp gouges their drive, spill gas on the drive, any little thing can be used against you. Our cones are marked with out business name, we have a friend who purchased military stencil machines and makes us what ever stencil we want. Then a little paint on the item through the stencil and your equipment is marked.

Ya I don't like parking in peoples drives either plus it makes it that much more difficult to blow it clean

I really don't know how you can manage using a driveway to park in, my driveway is only 22ft long to the sidewalks and we can't block the sidewalks without getting a ticket.

These are driveways that range from 250 ft x 10 ft wide, and are in the rural country part of the county. I have one that is in a nasty back road curve. I could park there but would have to ride the mower home when I got done because the truck, and trailer would be in a million pieces. I guess its ok to park in the street with city yards, and put cones out but in this county the back roads are dangerous to drive on parking would be crazy. Besides my customers are not that uptight they all insist that I park in the driveway where it is SAFE. I do agree though a couple of safety cones would be good to have on hand for that just in case thing.

So you park in the driveway and drive on the parkway, makes sense! :confused2::laughing::laughing:
Sorry, I couldn't resist.

:laughing:..:laughing:..:laughing:..:thumbsup:... Way back when I started we didnt think to much about safety but as you go along years later everyone in the business tries to figure out ways to be safer, and efficient at the same time.

If the gate goes down the cone comes out, no exceptions.

Same here!

 

[SUREYARDS]

I have a three car garage so my drive is wider than it is long. With the truck and trailer together in the drive I still have about a foot and a half of trailer in the garage, if I pull the truck ahead to have the trailer fully out of the garage the nose of the truck would be in the road and as you can see I'm definitely blocking the sidewalk and could end up with a ticket.
