    If the havertys is a legal load, run it. Get as far away from that overweight load as you can.

    I remember someone (RC?) saying that there was parking near Yale in Berea. I have a late delivery and don't relish the thought of finding parking at that dirt lot rathole just south of there.

    Look on google maps for Light House Home Products, 353 Walnut Meadow Rd, Berea KY. It's a part of Hyster-Yale. You can park there overnight. Nothing but a dirt lot, but it's a place to park. There's also a Walmart going north on 75 that a buddy of mine said has parking. That little rat hole has good food!! But, if you're going to be later than 5-6 pm, probably won't have any parking.
     
    Redtwin Thanks this.

    I was wrong about the destination for this load being the building next door. It's on the other side of the same building.

    The 200 empty from Louisville to La Vergne. And they flipped it on me again. Guy I spoke to first said it was on the other side of the building. Guy who loaded me and did the paperwork told me it was across the street. Either way, 0 miles loaded.

    I confess I would find it somewhat amusing to send in the depart final shipper macro and then immediately send the arrive final consignee macro.
     
    MidWest_MacDaddy and JohnBoy Thank this.

    Only a couple minutes apart and only that long because I went inside before sending the arrive. Amusing as it all is, the last few weeks have been (mostly) short days punctuated by an 11 hour day to break 'em up every couple or so. But the bad with the good, I reckon.
