    You can usually park on the street at that OJs. I've never seen the cops bothering anyone there. If you park at their drop lot you run the risk of their yard jockeys running you off. I usually just park in the port at Newark near a regular shipper there. Much quieter and no risk of anyone disturbing your break.

    It's annoying, but with the disgusting behavior of what passes for drivers today, I can't say I blame them much. So many little oases that we used to park at are now fenced off with signs saying NO TRUCK PARKING, VIOLATORS WILL BE SENTENCED TO DEATH because of the subhuman animals tearing up the place, idling all night in 70* weather, and throwing their garbage and piss bottles everywhere. Unfortunately, between the third-world savages and general breakdown of civilized behavior across the board, I'm not thinking it'll improve anytime soon.

    I agree and totally understand what you are saying. A lot of drivers too lazy to empty pee bottles in the grass and just leave full on the ground, trash thrown out windows instead of in receptacles or too lazy or cheap to even take a shower or change clothes.

    we have that issue over at the Walmart in Viera off MM191 off 95 in FL where people park overnight. They leave all sorts of trash and I'm surprised Walmart management has not run anybody with the exception of the people that deliver for them. one that apple can ruin it all. just a shame that people cannot do better.

    I've only done it once. I think they have dedicated guys when they took over the southeast milk account.

    Milk Plant in Houston, TX, it took two hours to get loaded with this load in Bartow, FL so I thought it was standard in the Tanker division lol.
