Thanks for the help gentlemen. Usually I have a little more time to get it done, but you know how it goes.

Just open the doors for a few minutes... Oh wait, that only works in Phoenix.
mje Thanks this. -

Running with the temp up and doors closed won't dry it. It's a sealed box and the air just goes round n round. The only way to get the moisture out while going down the road is to chill the coils and condense it out. I run the temp up to 70 or so to get all that moisture into the air (warm air holds moisture, cold does not), then "crash" the temp down to 20 degrees. It'll be dry in no time, with all that water draining off the coils. Hit the defrost cycle a couple times if you can.
Al. Roper, mje and DoneYourWay Thank this. -
Just goto the store pick up a bunch of paper towels, then just wipe the trailer down, by time you done it will be all dry, and later you will be able to use the paper towels for the BBQ at the truck stop when you are done
mje Thanks this. -

Reload went off without a hitch. Set it on 45 and by the time I got to shipper had very little moisture. By the time they started loading me, no water. Thanks for the help. Oh and paper towel guy, put the crack pipe down! That #### will seriously mess you up!
