what's the address for the drop yard in Jacksonville?

 

Heading to Winston Salem, NC tomorrow to deliver. I'm not looking toward to running I40 through the Smokey mountains in snow/freezing rain/50mph wind gusts. Oh well, guess I'll get a good nights sleep before I tackle that fun.

 

Idk the address but general directions might help.


From I-10EB. Take I-295N to exit 25 Pritchard rd. Go right. After the first light it will be the very first right. After you turn right it's the immediate left.

From any direction you come from it will be exit 25 off i295. Go east on that road to the first light the follow the turns I listed above.

 

Found a old picture of me getting towed in my first Roehl truck.

 

Shipper ran me outa hours so i sit in the parking lot yay. At least iam not alone 3 prime trucks here. Deliver in worthington mn on the 31 two days of driving to get a 1050 miles in.

 

Btw i hate lumber tarps, but was nice of them to tarp my load. Alls i had to do was bugee it down.

 

Lumber tarps are the worst. I've ran into a few customers that will tarp the load for you. Makes things easier.

I am also positive i over strapped this load of sheetrock. Other drivers were looking at me funny. But whatever feel safe hauling it surei put like 6 more straps than i needed.

 

Hey there ain't no such thing as over securing a load. You do what makes you feel safe.

For instance I have an 8 foot long wooden crate on my trailer with 3 straps. Each strap rated at 5400lbs WLL. The crate only weighs 1,300lbs. I did this though for personal reasons.


Everyone has their own ways of securing.
