    Got empty in Antioch, Tennessee and then bounced 55 miles to Dickson, Tennessee and then my day went to poop. 45 minutes to get checked in and assigned a door, loaded fairly quickly, but then another hour to get my bills. At this point I had maybe had 2.5 hours left on my clock, so I just found the nearest truck stop and called it a night. Nashville evening rush hour on a Friday? No thanks!

    I will drop this load in Joliet tomorrow, pick up a preloaded trailer in Bolingbrook, Illinois going to Blair for a drop, and then pick up a preloaded trailer in Omaha going to Mesquite, Texas for Tuesday.

    In the Mail? I thought those were picked up at the window. Am I confusing two things?

    So they got me to Ellabell on Monday, got to see my daughter that night, then home for the Election (interesting times ahead) and chilled out on Wednesday.

    Wife dropped me off at the Truck Thursday before she goes to work and I headed up to lumberton to get a Quickie before noon.

    will drop this load in Topeka today then shuffle a loaded trailer from KS to CB before grabbing a load in Omaha heading back to NC.

    pretty smooth and easy week of running

    so a question about KC... we now have two drop yards in KC and they are just miles apart or are we switching drop yard locations? I’m picking up at a Caravan Trailers and it’s our drop yard but with a different address than where I have picked up from our drop yard before. And the two addresses are fairly close to each other. Maybe I just missed a memo.
     
    Lonesome Thanks this.

    You just call them and ask if they can mail it for you. But do remember mail this days in particular is very slow (Because of the Coronavirus, election ballots) and you might get it a week later.

    I won’t be home again until December so I’ll just grab it the next time I’m in Fremont. Probably faster... lol

    I just received an insurance letter that was mailed 9/28. So, I think slow is an understatement!
     
    Silverdriver and MidWest_MacDaddy Thank this.

    KC Drop yard at Caravan is right behind the Pilot. I've not been to the other one but have been told it's at the ACT yard and one for one specific customers loads.

    When I was at the yard a couple weeks ago getting my satellite installed, I went to the window to get some more trip records and stuff. I was very surprised to have a check waiting for me! I thought I didn't qualify for the bonus because I only worked here like 2 weeks during that quarter, but I got a check for over $100 that I wasn't expecting at all! Always makes the day better lol
