Just dont do like my dispacther did too me one time, sent me too go pickup a box, no problem, tooled on up there, get too the place, holy cow thats a tall box i thought myself, check bol, um houston we have a problem, so i call up my boss,i tell him, he said what, i told him that was a extra high box for a flatbed, he check's his computer, shoots me a call back, sorry got wroung load info, i tell him no problem, it was a load for a lowboy flatbed,, i told him dont worry about, i drove 45 miles too nice trucks stop,
and so now on your own and after like 6 months i would invest in a load height check tool, it will save you many times over

Well.... not happy about this load.... Picked it up from the Houston drop yard... Whoever dropped this load "wasn't smart" (nice version) for leaving larado with it. Five industrial air conditioners. The front three are fine... the back is double stacked... Not a good idea to me, only two straps are supposed to he put on these things, at the corners. The bottom one is chained, top just has a couple straps, it will have two more added tommorow just to make me feel better. I had to get someone with a fork lift to come adjust the load because it was so far off center. Actually Hung over the edge. I told my FM I wasn't hauling it lime that because its unsafe. I got it centered so we shall see how it rides...
Not getting hometime this week, just a pass through. This load goes to new York then Massachusetts. -
