Show me that in writing, that they have a legal obligation to route you home to unload your stuff, if you would be so kind.....

Even still, if the OP is logging on duty for EVERY little thing and never has the hours to run, I’d have to wonder how new he is to the industry. Legally you can log around 5-15 minutes on duty and the sleeper birth while at a shipper or receiver. BUT if you are on the dock assisting and expecting load/unload pay the you’d have to log on duty. Especially if DOT walks into the office, demands logs and pay records and starts tearing a new one into them about drivers logging sleeper birth while assisting or lumping. -

Out on the road or otherwise, I agree with you. No company should ever, except for dire emergencies, ever call a driver on his or her break.
As for logging on duty for phone calls, I did suggest that to the OP as a way to, perhaps, get the office personnel to stop calling during the break, as in K&B's case because it seems that they do it excessively.Lonesome Thanks this. -
BIF you certainly state the obvious. I was there and grounded with everyone else. I was referring to the days afterward when we were trying to get the system restarted.
Bumper Thanks this. -

If K&B or any other company chooses to route a driver through the house to clean out their truck, prior to turning it in, that would be a company decision. I don't believe, as someone said earlier, that they have a legal obligation to do so.
,Still waiting on that confirmation....
