    Ok so I have a live load @1700 on the 27th and delivers at 0800 on the 28th I will start my clocks around 1500 on the 27th so the final is 6 hours away so I could get there roughly at 2 am but I don't believe their is parking their so am I incorrect in telling company this can't be done without my 14 expiring and needing a 10 they keep arguing with me

    If you start at 1500 your 14 will be up at 0500. Unless the delivery location will let you get there early and take a 10 on their property, no you cannot legally do that load. The only other option would be to take a 10 in between. A split-break MIGHT do the trick but that'd require more info and alot of explaining that, tbh, I don't feel like getting into right now. :p

    You have to call and find out if there is parking in there

    Why can't you do a split sleeper?

    That's what im gonna have to figure out if I can take my break there then yea it's no problem but if not which is what I figure will be the case just cause places usually don't allow it in which case it's not doable
