I am over in the Carolinas and our freight corridor kinda cuts diagonal into Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana. So far we haven't been impacted yet. We've had a handful of customers shut down for precautionary reasons. Many of those have since reopened. All the current closures aren't enough yet to make a huge difference.
We'll see how it goes. I think we haven't been impacted as bad because the virus hasn't fully made its way into our area yet. Guessing two weeks or so and us bottom guys will be back to being laid off. Doesn't even bother me since I am in a really good position financially and would rather just be at home to ride this out.
How’s the LTL sector doing where you’re at?

1) Still managed to pickup 7,500 lbs of brochures today. However, our outbound is beginning dry up in general and compared to just yesterday.
All this because some big dummy wanted to have bat soup----or so the story we've been told........
But not as big a dummy as me-----financing a car with no safety net.......

Line haul does men different things at different LTL's. As an example, I work for R&L. Unless you're a team or a solo system driver, our runs are all out and back, either meeting at a slip point to swap boxes or turning a terminal. Some outfits "bag out" where linehaul goes out for several days and stays at motels. Others go to another terminal and work the dock, like XPO. I'm not sure about Pyle, you'll have to ask them.
