questions for trans am drivers or other refer drivers
i was considering trans am.
if you work for trans am or another refer company, how frequently are you sent home with a load? is there a noise ordinance that prohibits refers to be run in certain areas? i would hate to get sent home with a load where i would bother my neighbors with the noise. is it common to get sent home with a load when pulling refers?

thanks

I can't answer all of your questions but I am a Regional reefer hauler and can verify that there are some areas that have noise ordinances that say you can't run your reefer. We actually have two stores that we have to shut down our trucks and reefers as soon as we park. As for getting sent home with a reefer load, I'm not sure if that would happen very often. Usually, when hauling food, it's a get there ASAP and get it off the truck. In my experience. Hope this helps.

If you are running a reefer it is highly unlikely that you will be sent home under load. But if you are. . .

Whether you community has an ordinance or not, if you don't want your tires flattened, your house TP'ed and snowballs thrown at your loved ones, don't. Just don't. Find a truck stop where you can drop your trailer and bobtail home.
