Construction Driving

Timberline Construction and Development

I started out as a Dump Truck driver and Transport Driver, moving their big machines with a tilt deck trailer. In the dump Truck i would haul construction products from the pit to the job sites and do haul off from the job sites.

They put me in the End Dump Tractor Trailer set up and i would haul landscape Boulders in it plus the usual construction products. I became the lead driver and then the only driver, the reason i left this company is because they down sized from 7 men to 2 men. i had a chance to get into a track hoe and start digging fulltime but they could only pay me 40 hours a week and i was used to working 50-60, i needed the money to pay my bills
