    sorry didn't mean to imply its by superiors doings that the trucks are up here. But lately stepan in jersey has had a ton of trucks coming in from Heniff. Been told its because the Illinois plant is having the issues but idk?

    Kinder morgan is another one you may see 1 or 2 per month load out of there now they are in there daily. I'm out of pedricktown we seem to be decently busy but up and down. Lot of system drivers coming in and out but they sometimes sit before getting a load.

    sheesh, Patsy, I'm lucky if I even make a $200 paycheck next Friday(after taxes and all). In over 3 years of being here I got 1 check that was $300 and that was because High Point closed down for 2 days due to a snow storm and was at home when it happened. That was nobody's fault I ended up being at home for 4 whole days, due to weather. I understand about that.

    just wondering if anyone has heard what will happen to Carry Transit?(food grade side) Will it all be 'together' now, or do you think Heniff will sell off those 'food grade accounts' to (example) Prime, etc? I was thinking about that today.

    Yep Stepan in Joliet. It depends on your scale operator. Few much better than most. Some days in and out in 20 minutes, other says an 1+ for a bobtail in/loaded pickup

    If I go in between 0000-0500 I'm in an out within an hour. However, one time I had a 0300 load time and didn't leave out of there until 1400 that afternoon. First, product wasn't ready, and second, major thunderstorm happened and cut power off while I was getting loaded at 1130. Yeah, I didn't make appointment next day! That is the one load EVERYTHING went wrong on. Even had a 2 tire blowout on trailer. That's another story all together there! lol

    I've seen both Heniff trucks pulling Superior trailers and Superior trucks pulling Heniff trailers.
    Is this legal to do with the truck/trailer individually registered under two different DOT numbers?

    Also is there any pre-emission O/O trucks signed on at Heniff?

    Yes it's all legal. Pre-emission trucks,if they are signed on before. They are still their. Pre emission trucks is the only way to go.
