    Live and learn kid. I appreciate your honesty in your posts though.
    Many of the people here have hemorrhoids real bad, and are un happy with the world, hence you will be thoroughly scolded.
    I never had to the cross the bridge your on yet, the people I've been leased to, have told brokers the load was going to warehouse once, when I got run around, cause some lesbian said I missed my appointment, was 6 hours early, so I'm interested to see how this turns out for you.
    Lots of pitfalls in this game, you got a two or three for one on this load.
    Live and learn.
    Good luck.

    I've heard those pop open if you take them up too high in elevation. You might have a real mess on your hands. Insurance company might not be too happy with you when this is all said and done.

    I know with Frito Lay they do require their drivers hauling potato chips to follow specific routes for this very reason.

    Thanks for the advice! yeah I've been doing this for less than a year and already had to deal with lots of BS but this is by far the worst. The broker finally found a warehouse, 6 days later.

    Enough railing on them...You should either call broker and give them 30 minutes to come up with a solution...in the mean time call warehouses in the area to get product off your trailer.....its obvious the receiver is not gonna take it........
     
    Dave_in_AZ and Princessleia Thank this.
