    If you're taking it to Orly Drive in Indy, ask the dude in the guard house to give you the lot # and trailer # for an empty. That way you don't have to guess.

    You will come away with the hopes you will never have to endure that pain again.

    Oh, but those hopes will soon be dashed as you realize how easily you get sucked into the Gatorade loop. Especially when Wytheville is running behind on getting the loads out.

    Yep, yet again.

    If it's going to wintersville you can drop early. I have dropped a day early there with no issues. If you are hooked to a reefer, take it to the Wytheville yard and swap it for an empty dry van. Don't take empty reefers to Gatorade. Write the seal number on that little piece of paper they give you and hand it back to them when leaving.

    I am heading to orly. I got the load assigned 15 minutes after is was scheduled for and I was still 3 hours away from picking it up. Being on time is not an option but it is scaled.

    They are "running behind getting these loads". It's a drop. It really doesn't matter. Just don't take 2 days getting there and it'll be fine. I'm headed there myself.
