Transport cargo can weigh tens of thousands of pounds. Unfortunately, a significant cause of load shifts is imbalanced or improper loading. A heavy imbalanced load will throw off the trailer’s center of gravity, causing it to tip, jack-knife, blow tires, or cause other semi-truck accidents.

A damaged trailer loaded with expensive paper rolls needed a cargo recovery service. Team Pro-Enviro came in to unload the rolls before the rain got in and damaged them. A tarp was placed on the damaged end of the trailer to keep the water out. Then our team got to work with a forklift to remove the load efficiently.
