    anybody have any insights on delivering ice? Not dry ice, just regular ice. I'd imagine it's going to start picking up when summer hits.

    I did it. Middle of the summer. Picked up in Phoenix, AZ to deliver in Cheyenne, WY. -10 on reefer. Weirdest load I ever had.

    I’ve picked up ice made with mountain water in bc and delivered cross country in Quebec to be exported to the USA .. supposedly it’s better for drinks

    You talking about delivering ice and filling the ice machines at stores? If so, Home City Ice is another company.

    If it's distribution locally, it's kinda like food service. You stock ice machines until the truck is empty.

    It’d probably be a pretty cool job. :biggrin_255: I’ll see myself out.
