My Sammons experience

I think that would work. They might have you do a securement class but that wouldnt hurt anyone. Give them a call

 

WELL, I unloaded that out house 20 miles west of janesville CA in the MODOC national forest, one thing that was weird to me was in california the forest service roads were paved, never seen that before, bounce down to Sparks NV about 90 miles and got the truck and trailer serviced then washed up before my reload. i got a multistop home depot load which was mainly ladders and looked much like a jigsaw puzzle, after arguing with the guy that i can't have any over hang front or rear because my trailer is 53' we got management involved, what it came down to was i said fix it or take off..... they fixed it and it all fit just fine, and rolled to Denver and did my 6 deliveries yesterday and that took all day

I stayed at Johnsons corner truckstop in Loveland CO lastnight and the food is pricey but not a bad truck stop over all, they could pave the parking lot or allow drivers to beat the drivers that come in there against the rev limiter with the fan on, either way..

I loaded a 2 pick 1 drop today, 1st was in Wellington CO those guys were awesome 5 skids in and out 30 minutes with tie down time, head to Greeley for the 2 portion, and wow slow but it was ok 5 bigger skids got it on and tied down and headed to Laramie WY, i still have friends here from when i went to WYOTECH, gonna have dinner with them in a little bit, then tomorrow im gonna take my time heading for Yuba City, for tuesday unload, then reload comeing back to cheyenne. staying busy and should have some numbers for august next week,

i didn't know their showers were free, but i agree the food was good even though i think it is a little pricey but the way everyone was that worked their was awesome so i didn't mind that much..

yes i think a van would of been better, maybe a little hard to load and unload those 18' ladders, just a crazy load, i watched another guy leave with only 6 straps on a load similar to mine, a little scary for me

 

the broker/trucking company called me when i posted my truck in the area... she must have been desperate to move it cause according to the office it was way higher then normal loads from them.., what was wierd is they had their own trucks in the area and they didn't get a load of them

as for that load i don't want to do another one

 

i have no problem getting to or out of cali, they told me that it is hard to stay west but i am not having a problem with it, and my dead head is not crazy high...

no i didnt' have to tarp it and i wouldn't have, there is no way i was climbing up on that monstrosity
