    You would have to go to a trailer cleaning place like the one I went to have them blow them out...

    Company I drove before would deliver loads at places where folks had no docks, some had no pallet jacks, others had nothing.... but they had lots of people to help unloading.... we could unload in one hr sometimes less.... 24 pallets with boxes of about 25 lbs each box....

    I haven’t looked into the details yet.
    This Freightliner, with Dd15, 12 speed auto. It backs beautifully.
    Quite a big difference from that paccar 13 liter, and Eaton auto.
    I used to hypothesize that the Eaton was designed for a 15 liter. Wanted the torque of a 15. Couldn’t deal with the 13 liter’s lack of torque? I might be right?

    BTW: I have to judge this Freightliner is higher quality than a Pete 579.

    Back on the hay in a van discussion.....

    Place I delivered to had an attachment like this on a forklift. Just back to the dock and they would roll in and grab the stuff out.

    Only real issue was some of the hay stuck in my E-track and trailer was no longer considered "food grade".
