    I once hauled fireworks to texas right on the border. I call the guy and I am like you gave me the wrong adress. hes like nope thats the one. I delivered 15k pounds of fireworks to a latino fella living in a trailer in a residential neighborhood. he claims that he spent almost 40k dollars so his wife couldnt spend it. he goes if these don't sell I always have fireworks.

    Dead bodies in a reefer. When we sent a road construction crew to NOLA in the wake of Katrina, they needed our trucks (and drivers) tasked to FEMA more than for roadbuilding, so we ended up doing a variety of things... road clearing operations, supporting Urban Search and Rescue Efforts... and carting trailers with corpses in them to a central collection point, where who knows what the hell they did with them.

    Weirdest thing I ever hauled was one Briefcase from Denver to Chicago. I do not know WTF was in the thing but with the amount of security I dealt with I never want to know. I picked it up at the Denver Mint took it to the Federal Reserve Bank in Chicago. Beyond that I never want to KNOW what was in that thing. The Guy that rode with me walked it into the trailer taped it to the floor I guess since I was NOT allowed to see what was in the trailer. Beyond that it was a normal fast trip from Denver to Chicago.

    One pallet of official U.S. postage stamps. Picked up just outside of Buffalo, NY. And it went to one of the weirdest, yet coolest, places I've ever been to, and some of you will know where I'm talking about: Inside a mountain in Kansas City, MO.

    Probably a money plate. You'd think they would haul it in a van or car. But we all know how the gov't is.

    I've hauled pharmacueticals before and had secret escorts.
