From the old retired federal DOT official -
I rescently rode with this guy that has a contract with columbia forest products in old fort nc. He has three full time drivers that run their raw materials and their finished product from one warehouse to their main plant. I have seen this girl load a full flat-bed trailer with plywood in less than 10 minutes and these guys strap their loads in less than 20 minutes.I have seen MceLroy drivers & Dominion Logistics drivers do the whole thing in less than an HOUR. I'm sure you have to get your routine and just build on it.
