Most epic load I've hauled... Full trailer like 21 pallets of the #1 fingers for baseball games weighed like 2500lbs
A load,I've hauled that was the most memrobale I brought the new penny's into California two full trailers of 45klbs of them from Colorado to the underground San Francisco reserve bank equaled around 500,000$ worth of pennies. My cousin brought around 800k of the new nickels a week later. So cool to know that.Straight Stacks Thanks this. -
Noticed little orange trees in half quart size containers being sold at a TA in Florida, I just knew they were shipped in from California. There is no such thing as weird.. anymore

Hi dca, got that right. Like buying milk in Wisconsin that was from California ( California surpassed Wis. in milk production a few years ago) I don't remember any really weird loads, hauled a load of "copper chops" in palletainers once to a recycling center. 22 pallets 44,000 lbs.) of these boxes of copper "dots" that must have came from a punch press something. I'm sure that was worth some bucks, and a load of lead ingots once. 7 small bundles (2x2x2). In a 45 footer, ( I know, that dates me) 4 in the front, big space, 3 on the tail. (I had to nail a 2x4 in front of the ones on the back) I said, um, that's it? The forklift guy said, well, you have 44,000 there. Who would have thought lead was so heavy?Straight Stacks Thanks this.

Weird loads huh? I've hauled a load of euthanized animals! 20k pounds worth
Straight Stacks Thanks this. -
EEWWWW. My ex gf hauled a couple of boxes of dogs heads, going to a laboratory for rabies tests. (right next to all the other freight she had on) Wonder if there's a placard for that?
Straight Stacks Thanks this.
