    Another Week

    well another week has come and gone. and the trucks have been busy! means the shop has been slow. the fedreal d.o.t man came by said we were satsfactory { another word for other dog}out of 350 logbooks only 4 where wrong!! but on a better note. the weather has been going my way i've picked up another 20'000lbs of scrap this week and the lot looks a lot less like a landfill. but i still have a long way to go but things are getting better! not much in the way of truck news. one of our star drivers cut a tire & busted a axle gasket.[nobody is perfect i guess] however much they seem to think they are. one of the family trucking companies was sold last month [H.H. Moore trucking] to PGT the first time i saw the name on the trucks i felt like there had been a new death in the family!! that company had been in the family since 1946. it took my father his father & his father to build it and countless others. i guess the world is changing more and more each day. doesnt mean that it doesnt hurt to see it happen till next time keep um between the ditches and rollin on

  14. well hello out there guys just thought i would take a minute to introduce my self. i'm 26 years old and i konw that sounds young but i've been in on and around trucks my whole life it's all i know. its the family biz so i guess its part of the family. right now we run about 70 trucks and that seems like to few or to many depending on what day it is. where either to busy or not busy at all. but we still seem to find a way to make things work. its allways an adventure. there some thing that allways seem to need doing. recently i started cleaning & expanding the backlot where we drop trailers. its been qutie a task so far . i belive that i've hauled about 125.000lbs of scrap from up there now its starting to look like a trucking company instead of a landfill but i've still got a long way to go !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  15. It was long,but a pretty easy run. We only had to drive the dolly getting out of the old Carolina Steel plant in Abingdon then again when we got to the jobsite. The rest of the way was all interstate and we would pull the steer axle of the dolly up on 2 big blocks and chain it to the beam so it was up off the ground. My daddy and my grandfather put a body on that truck for the owner when I was a wee lad-that's going back a ways. He later took the truck as partial payment for some work because I wanted it-the owner had parked it by then. It would barely run,but I drove that truck home. I was intending to fix it,because I thought it was such a neat looking old truck,but you know how it goes when you're 17 or 18 years old. Daddy had the head done,it had several burnt valves,so that's why it wouldn't half run, and I put a new voltage regulator on it, but I soon lost interest in it because something else came along. Back then-about '75 or '76 I guess- it would have been pretty easy to restore,but it's pretty far gone now. Somebody even shot all the glass out of it with a BB gun. When I left Jeffrey it was kind of funny. Even jeff and Teresa thought so. But Bonnie ( at H.H.Moores) was not amused at all,especially by what I said about him catching a ride. She acted like it was my fault and I left him on purpose. She had NO sense of humor, NONE. hey you wanna fix that truck!!!
