    I can go back three four feet and that's about it. I'm not a super trucker :(

    I can back a dolly on the back of a trailer. Maybe even get it to go where I want it :biggrin_25523:

    I love it when that happens. I've been able to do it once myself, several years ago. Not an easy trick.

    @JReding what does Probidence Health Care use the doubles for do you guys have drop lots? Or do you drop one trailer at one hospital take another to another hospital and then go back and collect?

    Depends on the run.
    We have two hospitals in Everett. The main hospital has a secured underground service area. I bump both trailers to docks, unload both, go ten minutes to the next hospital, finish off the trailer I have, come back, hook the set.
    Another one, I'll drop a trailer at our headquarters, work the first trailer, come back, swap, work it, come back and hook to go home.
    The one pictured is in Oregon. Bump both to a dock at one hospital, empty out trailer and a half, hook the set, go to the next hospital a city over, then do my trailer squaredance. After that, I come home.
     
    Mike2633 Thanks this.
