    Not my problem, just pointing out that in your example you’d have the ability to legally move your truck.

    I have been put in applications over the past week at all sorts of different companies that do not do reefer or only do reefer in a limited capacity, so far I've been rejected by all but one and some are just pending getting back in contact with me. That being said it seems like if you have a willingness to do reefer that there is a super abundance of opportunity out there for anyone of any experience level, even if you have baggage.

    Once you are unloaded, it's called wait in line for a wash out next.

    Depends on what you hauled and how messy the trailer is to require a washout. If I cant stay at a customer to get in a split break, Ill PC to somewhere I can. Everyone runs their book different, I run mine to work for me. You do whatever works for you. Not sure why you want to keep turning this into a argument. Dont like my opinion, cool. Move on.

    I haven’t thought that would work. But who lives the truck while you sleep.
