    So just bought a duffle bag, sleeping bag, body wash, tooth brush, toothpaste, foot power, shaving cream, razors, leather gloves, flashlight. Am I missing anything else? I should be able to pack at least a week or week and half worth of clothes.

    Recruiting should. Have sent you a list. Your going to need bedding and a pillow. I recommend. 2 weeks there have been a couple times I have been to busy to do laundry. But I will shut down for a day before I run out.

    The infamous flip flops! No joke.......bring 'em or regret it later.

    Warm jacket.

    We are heading into September & cold weather comes early in the NW & mountains. Gets #### windy, too.

    You will also be spending time in refrigerated warehouses monitoring your loading at times. Can be pretty darn cold for time it takes them.

    A book bag is nice. Can throw your shower stuff and set of clothes in there. Pillow to go with sleeping bag. Outside of that, you're probably ok. Prime has a pretty good company store in SpringMo which has a lot of useful stuff you might want later on.

    If you're a coffee guy, a travel thermos is always nice.

    Either will be fine.

    Prefer something more waterproof in snow.

    Both if your flatbed. Don't know if your doing reefer, tank or flatbed, but if flatbed there are places we go that steel toed boots are required.
