Question about Hansen & Adkins

Yes its achievable by working have and not tearing stuff up. As far as never going home, most of us are home every weekend.

It is usually not that difficult to find a motel with parking. Not sure about H & A, but some companies use Corporate Lodging Consultants for driver lodging. They have a negotiated rate with each location and have a directory book. They scope out each location and make sure that a 75' er can safely park. Some places are nice and some are dumps depending on area.

 

We use Corporate Lodging at USAL and you can put the app on your phone that gives locations. Also ask other drivers where they stay when they go to such and such place. After a while you will know which hotels to stay at in certain areas

 

Is corporate lodging a service. Is the app called corporate lodging.Do you pay for the hotels then get reimbursed

 

No, you get an actual card, like a credit card. The app shows you which hotels accept it in a certain area. When you get to the hotel you just give them the card and the company is charged.

 

I was reading on here earlier about guys loading there trailers over 13'6 and running with out permits.USAL doesn't do that do they

 

We run 14' max. Most car haulers go over that. Our company policy is 14' and your checked at most terminals to make sure your not over. I've never had an issue in any state as long as I'm below 14'. Honestly you can't get most loads to 13'6" unless it's all small cars

 

I haul a lot of OD freight and it would scare me to run something over height without the correct route.Does USAL require y'all to stick to a certain route or suggested route,when under a load.For instance to keep y'all off high railroad tracks and low clearances

 

Is tree branches a problem running above 13'6.I was noticing today on the county roads I was on had a lot of low trees that would give you problems.Thats why I was wondering Ifthey require you to stay off certain road or is It up to you to know better
