    I hope they work this delivery out. Do you have her as a friend on FB or is there a group or something?

    They have a very select set of lanes and points. They have a few customers scattered they can use to get loads out of the norm to out of the norm places but these are few. They really try and avoid brokers unless absolutely necessary. If you think it’s a hassle for you, imagine how the office feels about it.

    And let’s be honest Potsdam NY is well off the beaten path for anybody. Albany and Rochester area are finals from only a handful of their customary origin cities

    I don’t want to have to use personal conveyance for every little BS move where I’ve already started a break. Personal conveyance is a necessary option but it does can’t be used once it switches to Drive.

    Oh yeah I know I understand that I live in a area that is tough to get to. But my concern is i specifically told them a number of times I have an appointment that will be almost impossible to reschedule in a timely manner on the 31st. I even put my hometime in 3 weeks ago and reminded them last week about this.

    I am the same way lol always freaking out. Had mine at 20 degrees cont for 3 days without fueling it up. Was down to a 1/4 tank when i got it fueled finally. Im sure a lot depends on how hard it has to work to keep the temp depending on temp outside and other factors

    I know with to 8## series trailers, they burn about a half gallon per hour on a continuous chilled mode. Most of them have 40 gallon tanks, figure 35 useable. That's roughly 70 hours if starting from a topped off tank.

    I prefer to top them off before they ever reach half, or otherwise as is convenient or needed. A handful of places won't let you in if you go in with less than half tank. Some drop/hook places require full tanks when going in.
