    I’ve actually considered lately looking at houses in Illinois or Wisconsin since it seems I’m over here at least two to three weeks a month running loads in and out of Illinois

    If my opinion means anything, look at Wi. Do not buy in IL. Property taxes are stupid, sales tax is high and this state is totally broke. I believe we're in 49 or 50th in broke states. We have billions in unfunded pensions and a 2 year backlog in paying bills. No one in political office is willing to a think about it except to raise taxes again & again.
    Seriously, look at either IN or Wi. You'll thank me later. We've strongly considered moving to IN a couple times. We're waiting till my boys graduate high school.

    Please keep us updated, I have a truck in paint I was going to Try Mercer with, but ~7 years of dump trailer is hard to get away from, and I’m only. Few hours from their NY headquarters

    LOL I thought everyone knew I was a she.
    @ChicagoJohn
    Plastic is good for sticky stuff, make sure the receiver is OK with the plastic because I ran into a few customers that were NOT so I had to regroup. Glycerin is great to use on the trailer to keep stuff from freezing. I've never had anything get wet under my tarp BUT I am a stickler about it. No loading over it on the passenger side EVER. The loader men aren't as good as they think they are.
     
    ChicagoJohn and blade Thank this.

    My baby brother lives in Tinley Park and the taxes and traffic KILL him. My taxes here on 12 acres and my house are under $500.00 for the entire year.
