My TMC experience.

Side kit? You mean a covered wagon? If so then yes it's a dedicated.

 

So my load pick up Friday was a close one. I picked up a load of shingles in Brookville Indiana at 4pm going to Arlington heights Illinois. By the time I got home Friday night I had 30 minutes left on my clock. So was a close one. This load is due at the consignee at 8am, I'm currently sitting at the Hillsdale oasis on i294, 20 miles from delivery because there isn't any parking at the consignee, and I didn't want to chance not finding a parking spot close, so I just stopped here for the night.

Thinking there was an ulterior motive for this load. Something like a test, to see how I handle having relatively no parking, or limited options and how I work getting to my receiver. I haven't gotten my first snapshot yet, it comes in on Thursday this week. Hoping it will be a decent one.

 

Kansas, I try to stay at the receivers as much as possible, sometimes there are facilities for us, sometimes no. Our load screens usually say if their is parking for us.

All students start at 26%, your first snapshot determines what your next % goes to. From what I can see, its really hard to go down below. I'm told you really have to work at it to not be above 28%

 

Ballc74, I had several long phone conversations with Brad over about a month. They don't care.


Made my drop of steel this morning in Louisville, my next load is from silver grove ky, a load of wallboard heading to Lowe's in Peoria Illinois.
