TS Hermine clean up

Hope everyone is okay after Tropical Storm Hermine. Has anyone put their trucks to work for cleanup? If you can post some pics. This is the 3 load of fallen debris between my house, Dad's house and neighbors. I've got fallen down fence sections next to go.

 

I've pulled a small utility trailer around with just maybe 1500 lbs doing some various storage building runs. Looks good with those limbs in there. Make that baby work.

 

This was the first of two beds full I had Saturday in Charleston, SC

 

We were down in the Outer Banks area on vacation when it came through there. Pretty windy and rainy but we made the best of it. Didn't have my truck down there but there sure were alot of places that could have used a good truck to help them clean up....

 

We had a few downed trees and limbs, not too bad here minus the power going out for about a day. Valdosta got the brunt of the storm here in south Ga. Lots of power outages there.

 

That's a terrible situation to go through. Hope all is ok. I bet that trailer across the street was rocking and rolling.

 

Indeed. Living at sea level 10 miles from the Gulf Coast, we have had 4 major hurricanes I can remember off hand in the last 20 years. It's a complete pain, impassible roads, power outages, and honestly, a bunch of chainsaw accidents (used to work at a hospital). Stay safe.

 

That's because everyone and their brother thinks they know how to run a saw

 

Hold my beer I got this

 

Unfortunately you are right. Physics and gravity are merciless teachers, and people who fire up a chainsaw for the first time and have no one to guide them or mentor them are usually the ones who came in.

 

Few pics from here on the Outer Banks, we were hit pretty hard especially for a storm that was supposed to bring only 30-40 mph winds, turned out to be steady 65 with 70+ gusts.
