Propane trailers are tougher in an accident, they largely don't deliver at public places with convenience stores which means you can load/deliver at a facility without seeing anyone else in many cases. They mostly work seasonally so you can have the summer off or do something else. During season they move all over the US to haul where it's cold, so you'd get some road-tripping.rachi Thanks this.

This was I65 south of Nashville. He hit the center support. He blew himself and the bridge up.

I'd say the cons depend on your location and if your paid by the hour or the load. Next to cryo it's the second best gig tankers, I miss it somedays.

I thought most drivers work 10-12 hrs a day even those paid by the load some might do 14
-
For those paid by the load is night shift more profitable or better?. Are you able to move more product with less traffic on the road or shorter lines at the rack etc.
-
Something else I look forward to is not having to go back and forth between working days nights back to days again. Most new guys start off at night which I’m fine with as long as it’s only nights and no back and forth like doing otr.
-
Usually some kinda spark sets it off.... like cleaning off the battery box etc. Or the emissions one box ends up in the trailer ....
You get the point..... -
Basically yes......

So the lines at the rack tend to be shorter
at night vs the day. Once I saw a line of close to 10 trucks at a fuel terminal and this was at night in CA.
