    That is a fun dock to get into. When you get there, pull into their parking lot to the south of the building. Check in. You will have to open your doors there and slide your tandems all the way forward. The dock guy will then stop traffic for you when you pull back onto the street. He will then guide you back into the door. It's not very wide and you back down inside of their building. Just don't get frustrated with all the stupid cars. There is a school up the road from them. There is also a Walmart in Carroll if you need some supplies, as well as a trucks top on the east side of town.

    It's what I was told. Since mike quit, I guess they need another local to do his bulk of the work too.

    What is the point of having a empty weight if the shipper still over loads you?

    Empty Weight was for Cons.
    Plus I doubt they actually knew how much weight they put on.

    I feel ya. Here at Tyson in Sioux city. Told them on the load sheet max to load was 43k. Get loaded and gross at 80780. They loaded 44800 instead of 43k. So here I set to get some weight taken off. The load goes to la Porte but after reminding them of my home time this weekend it is going to Dakota city. A whole 7 miles away. Either way the weight will be right before I drop it for another driver to pick up. So if anyone gets trl 2125 I drop it.
