    Had a hell of a time finding the Tulsa yard for some reason...but now I know where it is so I don't turn in to the wrong place and then have to back out onto the street again. :) Thankfully it's after midnight and traffic is nonexistent

    Found it.

    The two new SC Shippers that I’ve recently been to are Manning (on I95 N of I26) and Wellford (on I85 S of I26) both running to Topeka, KS

    Only issues so far were:

    Manning took 4 hours to get loaded but easy other than that, and nice folks to work with, and I’m sure it will smooth out. Probably just an off day.

    Wellford is brand new Construction on a brand new Road so the address wasn’t on my RM or my Backup Map App yet (Google had it) … I submitted Directions and Details to get it updated in the Directions Macro.

    Looks like the Columbia Route is being beefed up a bit… which is good for me.

    Now if they can just hurry up and finish construction of I26 from Asheville NC to Charleston SC, that section of road will be smooth running.

    I’ll ask where the third one is when I talk to my DM today.

    Waxahachie, TX, Northern Ga. (Haven’t been there since I’ve been back), KCMO, and Lincoln x2 might be more. These are basically secured drop lots we share with other carriers.

    It does seem like weekends are kinda rough for freight. I’m under a load with a 10 am appointment, the customer opens at 7:30 and is down in the directions as FCFS, so I’m planning on sneaking in when they open and playing dumb.

    Where you heading to? Is it going to HD Topeka? Curious to find out where the third shipper is out of.

    Come to think about it, I haven’t been there for quite some time myself. Trying to think the last time I touched it.
