Calex Express....My New Home!

Yep it was 2chefs...wasn't too bad for my first reefer/canada load ever. A bit brutal trucking in the rain the whole way up but eventually made it. Canada killed me a bit the signs are so small and only went by my map. Was finally able to grab a GPS tho. I'm actually on another 2 chefs load tonight as well but it loaded in jersy and goes up to rochester,ny and then to canada just north of Toronto in Cobourg. Only 7 skids so not too bad. As for truck xx220 is my assigned truck but now I'm in loaner xx221. Can't wait to get my other back it seems someone had a dog in this one and it wasn't cleaned at all I almost cant get into it right now. And btw do any of you guys know if the black boxes on our trucks are an ezpass only?...I'm wondering if itlll work for the canda tag tolls too where their marked no ezpass. Or do I have no choice but to lay out the tolls for canada...thanks in advance Anthony-

 

Couburg is EAST of Toronto off the 401, where did they have you cross into Ontario.

Last Thursday the wind was SO BAD the Skyway at St Catherines and Burlington were closed and the Queenston / Leweston bridge as well.

 

Indeed it looked a bit northeast to me so I said north. Also I crossed in friday and crossed back in saturday.. I believe it was the Peece br north of niagara falls. I took 90 to 190 to 290 got those directions from a fellow Calex driver at the yard before leaving...he was very helpful on that and showing me how to work the reefer a bit.

 

EZ Pass boxes work in Canada.[/QUOTE]

Ppreciate it John. Wasn't sure and wanted to confirm. Their tag lanes sed no ezpass I didn't wanna take the chance and paid the toll myself. That makes this trip a lot easier on me cuz I believe ill be hitting more tolls there this time. Thanks--anthony

Hey John I asked Billy and also safety they sed they don't think these work here in Canada. You completly sure they work for the Canada tag lanes that are marked no ezpass?. Just wanted to doublecheck. Billy said he thinks it doesn't and we usually just get reinbursed. Let me know Thanks Anthony
