    Oh, the irony. This is on the hazmat page of the load I just delivered

    The ironic part...it was a load of airplane lavatories...

    Not on this load. Not an RQ on the 2 hazmat items...but I still make an extra $.02/mi because the b/l shows an 'X' in the hazmat column.

    So the weight of the HM was under 1,001 lbs? What exactly was the HM? Was it the blue stuff that’s usually in those toilets?

    Good for you getting the extra pay though. If I remember correctly, that was a 3,000 mile run.

    Had an Oxygen generator and a smoke detector built into each one. Along with a fire suppression system.

    Took less than an hour at my delivery yesterday, including getting in the gate and winding straps. Was so bored waiting this morning I emptied my strap box and cleaned it, reorganized and counted all my bungie bundles. Cleaned out reorganized my personal tool box....hoooo-hummmm, and I still have almost an hour before they come in up in corporate.

    We prefer to leave our dunnage where it belongs. With the shipper or receiver. We are in the customer service business, we always want the customer to get exactly what they want. So they can supply exactly the dunnage they want to use.
