Accidently left rejected pallets on trailer

Maybe the OP drives a truck like this!

 

OK! Yes I could not, would not , walk that trailer.....

 

Moose I tell my drivers always get into the trailer to see if anything is left. A few of them had crap loaded on the trailer to get rid of it instead of putting it into the dumpsters.

 

Don't worry. There was a post on here the other day of a driver who pulled away with a women still in his trailer. Could be worse.

 

There was a guy awhile back who had an extra pallet of frozen Jack’s Pizza. He was gonna try to sell them on Craigslist for $2 each. Had me cracking up.

 

Have you seen some of the drivers these days? If they can't walk straight into the trailer from the dock, you'll need a crane and cradle to get them off the ground. You can just forget about them being able to 'climb' into the trailer, they probably roll out of bed, into their shorts and flip-flops.

 

So in reference to the questions, I pulled away from the dock (Walmart dc) and purposely left both doors open so we (exit guard & I) could look in the trailer. We both saw nothing and I got the ok to leave out. Went to drop empty and the entrance guard looked in and still nothing seen. Scanned bills and kept it moving. 200 miles down the road, I'm told cases were on the trailer. I looked and lo and behold, yep it says rejected cases (doh).

Since I check and double check everything, I was mystified at myself for not seeing it. Maybe it was in the front or a dark corner. Now of course nobody told me anything was rejected when getting the bills back and the reject stamp was on page 4 of 11, but hey I was stumped on how I missed it.

My DM isnt concerned even though I am and the osd guy is. Nobody has called back though. Hmm...

 

Ive sold rejected cases of Idaho Potatoes out the back of my trailer at a truck stop before... $5 for a 50 pound box. Made about $150 bucks.

Reciever had rejected them for "decay"... Apparently thats what they call it when thier fork lift operator jabs the forks through 5 cases on the bottom row of the pallet. Lol

 

use a flash light night time

 

Ok ok I get it, my bad to think that drivers can make it into a trailer.

I'm at pilot fueling my pickup the other day and there was one who had to be 400 lbs, waddling back to the truck from the truck stop. It took him three attempts to get into the truck, that poor seat and the cab sank.
