Millis OTR journal

From last week’s experience, nope. Same scenario with me except I got there at 1400 and the trailer was not loaded yet. Guard let me wait on it and I think he must have made a phone call because it was ready at 1630. I’d do like @keen98 said and give them a call. It’s what I’ll do next time.

 

West Allis skating rink was no picnic this afternoon. Had to shovel out my trailer couldn’t get under it because of the ice/snow pack. Pull out the trailer, trailer tire flat, but meritor pumped it up after about 20 mins. Saw Kilt guy, his last week is coming up, he found a local job so he could spend more time with his daughter.
Oh and in the hour I was there the temp dropped about 15 degrees.

 

I guess I was lucky because mine was ready at 0500 when I called. Got that number saved now just in case I need it again.

Does anybody know if they'll let us park overnight at the Lawrenceburg warehouse? My appt isn't until 1130 Tuesday but I'd like to be sitting there earlier than that without having to start my clock just in case they can work me in early.

 

Yes there is a gravel lot they let you park in over nigh . Odds are they will take you when you get there thoug . Always have me.

 

I've been there twice. First time they took me right away. Second time they sent me to that place around the corner and they put me on a door right away but took forever to unload me. I'm only 8 and a half hours away from the final right now with 4 and a half hours left on my clock. So I guess I'll mosey on in there tomorrow and hope for the best. Worst they can do is tell me to park and wait, right?

 

Thats always my philosophy. Worst they can do is tell you to gtfo their property lol.

 

Good deal. I’m glad it worked out for ya.

 

Sitting in the West Allis lot on the list...ugh...just watched a regional guy drop a 45 foot trailer, pull out from it and drop it super low...then he had to try to crank it up. Guess he didn't lower those legs enough.

 

So I have an 0700 delivery appt. at Midwest Whse and a pre-plan for a reload at Blues City at 0800. Should I try to get in to Midwest early or will I just be wasting my 14?

 

Get there at 6ish and you should be ok. Since u don't have a reload there they will prob put u in door immediately
