    I'd think if a company in Washington was going to order from a place in Boston, they'd opt for a whole truckload. But I guess not, here I am finally empty.

    Just an FYI for you...Next time you are in Gary, Marshfield..ect...check the equipment drops for a set of lightweight lumber tarps and if you find them, swap your out. They are alot lighter and easier to drag around.:biggrin_25525:

    I'd love to do that, the only problem is these #### relay loads. Every time I get decent equipment it all goes to another driver, or I pick up junk equipment and turn my nice equipment in the equipment room. I blame the hometime fleets, but I can't complain much about the 2200 mile run.

    Hometime & dedicated have the same problem...Really sucks when you tarp & untarp twice a day, and have to lose the lightweight lumber tarps to a national guy.

    I hate when you have multi-stops that are the length of the trailor and they stack on top of each other.
