    I should have mentioned, there is a very specific route they want you to take (Ferndale road to CR 1000 East). It goes over a 27 ton bridge so CoPilot (the company GPS) will get mad at you and has some fun and interesting routing advice for how to not get there and possibly give a tow company some business. The directions you get from the macro are spot on other than the construction they are trying to route you around on SR 59 coming from the South is done, I came up 59 from US 40 to get there.
    The 27 ton bridge is very short so you will not have the tractor and trailer axles on it at the same time.

    you can take your turf back. Unloading went okay but I find it ridiculous that they charge an exorbitant amount if a driver is a little late. And there was another driver there who had a higher late fee than me.

    If a load is late and you have to work it in or even turn them away until the next day, fine I get that. But charging drivers $250+ just because they're 30-45 minutes late is insane and seems borderline illegal. I'm glad I hardly ever have to deal with them anymore
