Shippers & Receivers - Good or Bad Load O' Freight That Just Can't Wait. Had a good or bad experience with a shipper or receiver? Discuss grocery warehouses, lumpers, and anything dealing with pickups or deliveries here. Does that shipper let you park and sleep? Does the receiver FORCE you to get a lumper? Trucker Directions

Been to the Campbells in Sac that you are talking about, we drop and hook there too. Same thing, never had a prob with being over axle or gross.

The security stopped me and asked what was going on...after explaining, the warehouse had a change of heart and reloaded.
And at another place in Ontario,CA....boxes hand stacked floor to ceiling, all the way to the doors. 1800# over on the trailer, and I can't stretch it out because of the 40' law. So shipper takes it all off the trailer and reloads it again....the same way that it was. When I argued, he tells me that that was the pattern that their computer called for them to use.
LOL, made me think of the time I was picking up knock off lego's in Washington. After 12hrs of waiting and still not being loaded my DM had me drop the trailer in the door and just leave. The shipper called my cell 3 am the next day saying I was loaded and to come inside for the paperwork. I told them I was already in Oregon and to call the CSR.
