    @blade be careful in Scottsboro, last month when I was there the un-loader turned me around and essentially backed me towards the scale and then off to the side, my tractor was elevated because of the elevation on to the scale, and my trailer was down in a hole. I was loaded with both loose, and bales, after nearly 45 minutes of trying to do it his way I finally convinced him to do it my way and allow me to dump on the other side, and low and behold it came right off. I don't understand why these guys argue us when we tell them we're leaning, I do this everyday and know the characteristics of my trailer, and I knew immediately the results would not be good dumping where he wanted me to dump.

    Safe travels, I'm headed to fernandina beach in the morning, then most likely up to AL.

    I’m in Newport AR. I dumped scrap here at 3:30 and re load at the same spot for Newton KS. But they stop loading at 2. So that’s pretty awesome. :rolleyes:

    Yessir @intrepidor On 9th Ave? I’m not sure if they have more than one location or not, but that’s the one we go to.

    I’ve brought them aluminum shred before and heavy metal scrap. Which is anything from lawn mower decks to fire hydrants and everything in between. Which makes a racket comin out and rocks the trailer pretty good. I’ve never hauled out of there. Usually we bounce over to Omaha Track and get tie plates for the railroad.
