    Can bh brooklyn loads be delivered early or if not, can we park onsite?.

    I have an 11am appt and would like to get in there before traffic backs up too much.

    Any routing tips would be appreciated also.

    Well, I'm not as young as I used to be... I pulled two days on two hours of sleep down at that army depot a week ago and that was enough for awhile... I can do it but I am much less grouchy if I don't... ;-)

    One nice thing about not pulling into a TS in the NE until after 4am is that some of the other drivers are already pulling out of the prime spots.... Added a few more hours of sleep and just waiting on the QC to go off here soon.
     
    Redtwin Thanks this.

    So ya, I hear this horn honking and look down at this very attractive lady trying to get my attention... And after she flashed me she looked as if she didn't recognize me or I was maybe not who she expected to flash. Either way it was the high light of my week so far.

    {just kidding... I passed there a day earlier}

    Follow the customer directions in the QC, they are spot on. You can get there early, they will unload you early and you can park in the bull pen (staging area) to take your break or finish your break. My second load I ever did as an OTR driver 38 years ago was at BH, it's still there and nothing has changed, except the neighborhood. It's actually a lot safer.
     
    MidWest_MacDaddy, Redtwin and Lonesome Thank this.

    Well now, let's count them 1,2,3.
    This is the third air leveler valve that's been in my truck since I got it new 67k miles ago. The one that came from the factory, then the one that replaced the original, and now this one. Like I have nothing to do with my life but waste precious hours of my life that I will never get back.

    No. That's why I believe this one will work properly.
