    • To the guys that work for Oakley Transport out of Elizabethtown, PA, . Are you actually going to Manhattan ? . This is the communication I got from Oakley . " Region- PA,NJ,DE,MD,(NE Area) VA, NC, Canada. Some Manhattan deliveries from Salisburry, MD; travel through the 5 boroughs expected, go into NY. " . If this is the case, please advise. Is this worth it ? I am trying to get into hauling tankers I have 4 years of ex. .

    Spent a couple years taking trainees into the 5 boroughs delivering non-food tankers.

    They are shorter than box vans; 42' to 45' long.

    That helps in most situations plus major food production places are usually fenced with a good amount of space compared to some 'mom and pop' paint plant in a garage where the directions tell you to go down the one way the wrong- way so the pump faces the door....

    Major roads are still a mess though with the influx of automatics a good way to grow patient.
