    Hello Everybody,
    Im looking to get log books printed out with my company name and address on it, but I dont want to put my home address.

    Can I put a PO box address for the home terminal?

    Would DOT/ Scales have a problem with that?

    Some of us use a logbook program. u can enter carrier name and.and address and simply print your logs each day. No need to special order preprinted logs.

    What program are you using? Using printed logs and printing my company name and address each day is a real pain.

    as opposed to log books, you should use a loose leaf log and order them w/your desired name and address.the stress eliminated will be worth the extra expense IF there even is a difference in price.i think keller & associates or similar can get you started or at least give you ideas.

    i use a loose leaf log and the ones I buy from the TA are around $3.00 or less,are made in the United States,and separate so much more easily than what pilot and flying j sell.those are chinese made and you can tell it.The difference is astonishing.plus the USA made are easier to fill in and use.
