    Palatka, Fernandina, Jacksonville. Paper mills are one of the downsides of dryvan.

    I spent a month looking for a good Blue Beacon opportunity to get my truck washed. Finally got in and out of the Kingman Az Beacon today in 20 minutes. It would be a cold day in hell before I ever dealt with that on a regular basis getting a reefer washed out. Amarillo and Weatherford Texas are two that I have passed by in the last few weeks. They were both 30 deep and stacked out almost to the road.

    I read the part about not washing a truck for a month, dropped my phone, and got light headed.

    I know what you mean. It was filthy for two weeks. Company used to have a guy that would come by weekly and wash our trucks but the city and/or EPA shut that down for reasons unknown to me. If you’re familiar with Irving Blvd in Dallas then you’d really wonder why anyone would care.

    Not starting out very good. 1st load out of the house was a rolled paper load out of Fernandina Beach to Garden City, GA. Pick up yesterday, and it showed a delivery appointment for today. Get to the receiver an hour before my appointment, an find out the customer's system showed it as a delivery for yesterday. So now they rescheduled it for next Tuesday. So now I am taking down to the Jax drop yard...these 11 rolls of paper are getting the scenic tour.
