    I thought you were referring to the 1st part of the post (my fuel stop debacle) at the E. St. Louis peelot. The Sapp Bro's truckstop is just in front of that 4 wheeler car wash at 1913 Lacy..and it is across from the shipper

    The washout itself is right in the driveway, on the front side of the shop, between the shop and the fuel islant. You have to go around thru the parking spots, and pull up beside the front of the shop (there is a sign telling you where to stop).

    Didn't get in too much of a rush to drop this load in York this morning...my next load had a 13:00 live load appointment. But, the drop customer didn't have any empties. So they bobtailed me all the way to Allentown. Had to hit 3 different cold storages before I found one, and it's one of the oldest 838's I have pulled in quite a while. And, it was so crappy inside, after 2 walmart bags of pallet parts, I gave up and then had to find a washout between Allentown and Harrisburg and let them finish it. It's now an hour after my pu appointment, and I am just now getting washed out.

    Is anyone else who uses the Peoplenet app experiencing problems with it communicating with the truck unit? Half the messages on the truck unit haven't appeared on my app. I have signed out, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, reset the truck unit and rebooted it multiple times, but still, not all the messages I have on the dash box appear on the app's message tab.

    There's a truck wash in Allentown that has a Shaffer account. Name is Hotwash.

    2069 28th St SW, Allentown, PA 18103

    Use them whenever I deliver/pu in the area.

    I'll make a note of that for the next time I'm in that area. I wish they would give us a list, or have one online of the non-blue beacon washouts we have accounts with. I ended up stopping at the washout just past the T/A there in Harrisburg. After I took 2 walmart bags of pallet scraps out, they still had to use a coal shovel to pick up the stuff they washed out. Truly one of the worst messed up trailers I have ever had. If I would've tried to blow it out with my blower, I would have had to recharge it's battery to get it all.
