Glad I moved over to Poly Trucking

Different factors will determine how long it takes. 1) Do you have a good MVR 2) Is your CSA score low 3) Will your past employers respond quickly to Ploy's request for employment verification?

Good luck.

 

My backhaul after delivering in Summer,WA yesterday...picking up in Eugene,OR this morning going to Hazelton,PA. I will need to do a restart along the way so I will deliver on Wednesday morning.

 

So much for a restart. Chain law in effect on I84 in OR from mm226-248. Since I've got plenty of time I decided to forego the restart & just take my time. Since it got dark I stopped in Stanfield,OR for the night to wait till daylight.

 

Got my Pittsburgh load off last night and was rewarded with a nearly 500 mile deadhead to eastern Connecticut that I just finished having loaded up. Taking it back to Cottage Grove. About 1300 miles back to CG so I plan on taking it moderately easy as I don't have enough hours to make it back in 2 days so going to try and pull in there on Sunday afternoon and get something heading out on Monday morning. A real nice start for the new year as I am sitting on 4589 miles thus far with one day of reset at home and I think about 10 extra drops on my loads since 12/23 that I have not turned in as of yet.

 

Well, I made it up to my 1st stop in Appleton,WI. Found out this place is NOT a 24hr facility like I thought. Place only receives until 16:00. Guess my plans to get this stop kicked off tonight just crashed and burned. Found me a Walmart Supercenter to squeeze in until morning. Think I'll just take my time tomorrow now. I wanted to head on towards Cottage Grove tonight but that's not happening. Hope outbound has some good loads out tomorrow. Going to need a pontoon to get out of here if this rain keeps up. At least it's just rain. Looks weird on top of all this snow. Hope to get out of CG before any more of the white stuff moves in. Sounds like most of you are running ok out there. Be careful out there. Sounds like most of you are in some weather. Take care!

 

Looks like we're buyin' a house....one step closer to getting my app sent off!

...and wouldn't you know it? Things have run pretty smoothly lately here at Crete. Subject to change without notice.

 

Well now...you're going to be in my neck of the woods. I'm only about 12 miles from Hazleton.

 

Got a call from the customer in CT yesterday while on the way saying they were open until midnight if I could get up there. Got there around 2130 and it took them until midnight or so to finish loading but was glad to get it done. Just parked there and slept in late as I was pretty wore down after getting up early in the morning. Slogged through drizzling rain pretty much the whole day across NY and PA before calling it a day in Hubbard, OH. Taking the back roads tomorrow across OH and IN to bypass the tolls since I am not in a hurry so should be a decent day seeing the little towns as I roll through. Didn't get a call from outbound today so I suppose won't know anything about where I am going until Monday. Weather should be in full force crapola mode by then in Minnesota. Needing 4 new batteries for the truck as these current ones get into no startup mode after just a couple of hours of running light loads and I need to get the old inverter installed as it sucks not having my fridge, microwave and various other things functioning to help out with a decent food regimen. I ran the PA backroads up to I-80 and then I-81 to I84 across NY and CT yesterday and today instead of taking the PA turnpike and the GW across the Bronx. Only added a few miles to the trip along with knocking out most of those ridiculous tolls and GW congestion. Going to be my go to route from now on.
