    Hi,

    I would like to know what kind of freight ABF transports? I know they do u pack but I am sure they have other customers as well.

    Thanks

    ABF is an LTL company, (less than truckload). They may have fifty different shipments on any given load.

    Worked for them for while as casuel dock worker before I had got my cdl should have stayed great company.I worked at one of there break bulk terminals they haul a lot different things could be one pallet freight to a couple pallets a lot of stuff not on pallets they haul haz mat freight they used haul levis jeans out of terminal I worked at they would drop trailers at levis they would load them city drivers would bring them back to terminal . When opened door trailer would be loaded from floor to top of trailer no pallets where used loading trailer we would break trailer down put levis back on trailers to be shipped all over casuels allways broke down levi loads.It is a good company to work for if I could get back on I would jump right on it.:biggrin_2551::biggrin_25519:
