Went back over to the Port of Savannah first thing this morning and loaded a Caterpillar 926 Excavator that was going to West Columbia, South Carolina. Loading a machine like this is very tricky. There is a counterweight on the back but no boom or bucket on the other side to balance the machine. There is no weight on the front. Getting it on the trailer is tricky. Have to back it on the trailer, otherwise, it will summersault over backward. That would be a bad thing.
Left there and drove to West Columbia, SC, and delivered the machine. Getting it off is a lot easier. My next load is in Clayton, NC. Drove to the Petro truck stop in Kenly, NC for the night.
