I just realized in post #909 I said I left out on July 5th and took a load from McAllen, TX to Newark. That was a mistake. I took the load from McAllen to Flemington, New Jersey - not Newark. They’re only 47 miles apart, so it doesn’t make much difference, but I didn’t want to post incorrect information on here. That one was a drop/hook.

No forced chaining is what I was told. You do occasionally need to climb on top of the tank to open/close the hatch so maybe take that into consideration if you have back issues.
Lonesome Thanks this. -
I appreciate the info! Securing a dome lid wouldn’t be too bad.

This thread has me seriously thinking quitting driving reefers and trying my hand at tanks.
Tanker_82, Bud A. and Speed_Drums Thank this. -

With a company like Indian River that doesn't pay detention or layover, low miles can equal $400 checks, something I never experienced hauling vans or reefers. -

I've never had a loading or unloading take less than an hour. Some products I have hauled have taken as much as 4 hrs. Really depends on the facility and their pumps etc.
Some busier dairy plants there may be 3 or 4 trucks ahead of you in which case you know you will be getting in a 10hr break so might as well get dinner out of the way and hit the bunk.Bud A., Lonesome and tommymonza Thank this.
