Our Akron yard does Amish country they are usually stressing to the warehouse that they need the trailers to hit the yard very early, because our Amish stops have to like have guys out there moving product off the truck around 2am because if they get behind our trucks get held, up by the horses and buggies and can't move and the day spirals out of control.

YRC here in the CLE isn't much better they have some newer trucks, but the trailer fleet doesn't look like it's been updated at all, they still have a lot of the old standard junk running around though plenty of million mile Volvo's all in Yellow or Roadway colors I think most have been re branded now, but there all pretty junky over all. Holland has some new equipment and some Roadway left overs as far as trailers go. I saw a Holland city unit pulling a 53' trailer and it said Holland on it and then on the side you could see in "ghost letters" where it said ROADWAY your way.
USF Holland here in Cleveland has a ton of very old equipment lots of Sterlings that have been around for ages. I swear the trailer fleet is the same fleet they had when they were TNT Holland I wouldn't be surprised at all if some USF TNT Redstar trailers were remarked and still in service.
Although tractor wise I think most of the TNT Holland Ford Aeromax trucks from the 1990's are retired. -
