Not sure. I guess you'd have to ask NY and PA but I know for a fact the one I dealt with the other night was at least 1 foot off.

This is what I meant by blocking 4 lanes of traffic. This is Atlantic Avenue in NYC. People will help you, police will help you, sometimes hustlers will help you but you gotta pay em cash. The hustlers are also the ones that will guide you if you get lost and your gps is going around in circles.
I remember delivering 1 pallet of Caviar in Manhattan. I had to take my long nose and 53 there, easy going in but I didn’t know how to get out so I paid a hustler $100 to get me out of Manhattan. Dropped him off at the on ramp.
1 pallet of Caviar is worth over $60k-$100k, that’s what them rich people eat lol. Anyway, don’t always deny a partial pickup or a load with multiple stops. Sometimes they pay extremely well.Blue jeans, nredfor88, firemedic2816 and 5 others Thank this. -

You door slammers have a easy life.
Try going 15 miles on a ice covered ranch road to a drilling rig on top of a mountain. Even more fun going to a pipeline in Pennsylvania where you need a wrecker to get around corners.
Even more fun is getting from Tulsa to Houston 20 foot tall.
When you go to Philly you can see the tallest building, I took the chiller in there years ago,

Try wrestling a crated L-model Ford cab that's bigger than the lift gate off the truck by yourself at somebody's house.
Try dragging an 1800 skid of headstones uphill into a funeral home with a pallet jack because you can't get a 48 footer into the parking lot.
Try wrestling an 1100 lb crated wood lathe sitting flat in the floor with no way to move it into the back of someone's pickup truck because you can't get a 48 footer into the driveway.
Enjoy the taste of that shoe leather.bentstrider83, Northeast Hillbilly, alds and 4 others Thank this. -
