LTL P&D vs Linehaul

I'd kill for that. He should come do peddle runs in LA... lol

 

im one of the drivers who is picky about every little light working, and if it's overweight or not. i make sure to in turn runs give the other driver trailers legal weights on the axles and the lights working.

i very rarely have drivers bring me trailers with lights not working or it's over weight.

on turn runs everyone knows it's a bit more important to check those things. i think even our terminal yard jockeys inspect the turn run trailers before they are dispatched to make sure the lights and tires and all that are good. so rarely had issues on turn runs(other normal runs more likely to have lights not working our trailers are really old)

lastly i'm pretty good at fixing all lights(nice benefit to working at an ltl company with really old trailers is that it boosted my skills and practice in quick fixes).

 

i don't hate on all of linehaul or all of p&d drivers if one or a few did some bad things. i don't think you do either, i think maybe said that by mistake when explaining why you don't like turn runs.

 

If you don’t mind me asking, what outfit are you with?

 

He’s not going to say, and for good reason.

 

But what if he does?

 

Don’t count on it.
