    I won't say it doesn't happen but I have never been to a restaurant or actual store.

    Dirty trailers are part of the job. I have the trailer I am responsible for it. I sweep it or get it washed out if need be. I have never asked about getting paid for it. Maybe I'm missing out on money but that's just me. Honestly its a huge pet peeve of mine when I go to pick up an mt and the driver b4 me was to lazy to clean it out or get it cleaned out.

    WEL, it looks like I'm ready to go. I passed my CDL final tests. I'll have to make arrangments for air travel. I'm scheduled to start Aug. 2nd.

    Thanks for all the info Higgie.... I'm sure I'll have more questions along the way. Be safe.

    I will, I talked to Hali in recruting today. They will purchase a ticket for me to fly to Wisconsin. It's impressive that a company (these days) will do that for you.

    Higgie, trailer washouts are paid as needed. just call in for a PO# (breakdown extension or 24/7 as needed) if you go to eagle or blue beacon and a select few others, it is on account and no out of cash expenses.

    Riders over 6 years old at 60 days, it is $16/month. Company supplied EZ Pass, rest are out of pocket and reimbursed on next check with reciept. I scale EVERY load unless I know for fact I will not be passing a DOT scale, and they are always re-imbursed.

    Sorry I have been running hard and haven't had time to get on here.

    I know about the washouts, was just stating that with it being so easy to take care of there is no reason for a driver to drop a trailer dirty. Spotless isn't expected but full of paper, wood, dirt, ect... thats my only complaint.
