    yeah man those time zones can be a pain huh, i thought that AZ don't change over to Daylight saving time either so you'll find there the same as Pacific or California time anyways.

    I deliver to Home Depot as well, usually twice a week. Now granted I'm a flat bedder but they have never given me any type of delivery window. I will set up a delivery time with them ahead but they have always been very flexible with me if running a bit late. You haul box or flat? Wondering if that's where the difference comes into play.

    Man I'm an idiot. Just went back and saw the pic of your set-up. Guess it's a box thing.

    Besides convenience store clerks, truck stop employees, and the CB, I've called businesses in areas with confusing time zone rules and ask them what time it is. It doesn't have to be the business you are delivering to, In a real pinch call the non-emergency phone number for the police or fire dept. They always know the local time.

    you can use 800-Free-411 to get the number.

    Arizona is not the same as California. California is now on PDT, or Pacific Daylight Time, and Arizona is on MST, or Mountain Standard Time. Arizona and California may have the same time, but they are in two different time zones. The rest of the areas under MST are currently under MDT, or Mountain Daylight Time, which explains why Arizona is a hour behind Utah.
