Food Grade Tanker for a recent Graduate

In the food-grade world they haul flour, sugar, salt, etc.

Outside of foodgrade, those trailers often haul cement, fly ash, lime, plastic, and black/smokeless powder.

Edit: Catalyst for oil refineries, and corn, also get hauled in pneumatics.

 

Saw foodliner unloading one of these at keebler in Augusta GA the other day when I was delivering my chocolate chips.

 

It's a tank but not liquid. Does it still require a tanker endorsement for some reason?

 

I had that exact same question back when I first started pulling one, and the answer is no, you do not have to have the tanker endorsement.

I see Quantix nearly every day at the customer I serve. For my customer, they haul and deliver plastic resin pellets to make water bottles. Not sure if they do other products. Also, they have a variety of tractors, so I'm not sure if they are 100% owner operator, a mix of company and OO, or all company.

 

And people drink it!
