    What locks, if any, do you use to secure your loads? Personal or company issused?
    Do any of you use a 5th wheel lock? What brand?

    Company supplies straps... I personally never used a 5th wheel lock, if they want the load they are gonna take it. Most of the time when under a load you dont unhook from it unless at a terminal... Never at a truck stop have I ever unhooked.
