    I newly travel I-10 between Houston and Sealy TX, and I need to get my Upper Coupler Inspection done by midnight on 7/1/14... I'm a new O/O and apparently there are a lot of things I have to learn, but just found out that the inspection is due out of the blue 2 weekend days ahead of time! I know no one is going to hold my hand or babysit me but grrrr! Apparently a service station is supposed to be able to do it for me so now I'm trying to find one that will... Or if anyone can refer me to a place in that area to get it done I'd greatly appreciate it!
    ~thanks

    Not going to find much between Houston and Sealy, though you can go to the Speedco just East of Houston in Baytown. They are open 7 days a week. M-F 7am-10pm and Saturday/Sunday 8am-8pm. 281-424-7267

    GX2 Thanks this.

    Rush in Sealy can do it too. And I'm thinking there's a repair shop across the highway from the J. Bee? Super Bee or something like that..... just been awhile since I've been there. Check around......

    A UC inspection huh? It's not going to affect you revenue stream unless your pulling a tanker...... sure it's required but I've never heard of anyone refusing to load like a van cause the UC inspection is out.

    Now that Sherriff wannabe state boy in the scale......gonna be a different story.

    Good luck

    Yes, I haul crude so unfortunately I won't be dispatched without all DOT requirements up to date. But thanks, if I can't get in to the Baytown one I know exactly where Sealy Rush is (just got my truck back after they had it a week! Lol too bad I didn't know about this then... ) thanks again being the weekend they are closed and I didn't know if they did trailer inspections there... I have till midnight on the 1st so I was starting to panic, after being down a week already I can't afford anymore down time ;-) thanks y'all

    B Line in Brookshire is closed on Sundays but the J has a Boss Shop. Rush is in Sealy but closed today too.

    Only place I can thing of that would be open out this way today is Boss Shop at the J.
