LTL Packing list (linehauls)

gloves, smart phone, power inverter for radio, CB radio, few zip ties, clothes up to 4 days, ipod, big liter of water, iced tea, 5 hour energy, my carrying case, cigar sometimes, and hammer... You guys seem to get hardcore LOL

 

In addition to most of the stuff mentioned, I also carry several metal hinge type paper clips. Keeps my paperwork tidy, and more than once I have had to straighten out one of the pieces of wire and use it to replace a missing pin on my trailer axle sliders. The wire on these paper clips works terrific for this!

Some of you are way too thorough..lol..

I pretty much show up, get my hooks, and go. I run the same truck that I switch with a day line driver which makes it easier since there's a cb and some tools but my god..lol..

All kidding aside it isn't a bad thing that you're that prepared and specific but it does make me laugh a little. If I have smokes and coffee I'm good - get me rolling back to my terminal by 3 AM and I'm great..

 

I don't have a Bluetooth either..lol.. I know I need one but I'm holding out. I can't explain it but I just hate the sight of those things..lol.. I'd still rather make accidental conference calls going down the road with my phone plastered against my ear..lol..

 

we did the same ####..lol
