Just thought I'd pass along a helpful tip for those folks who are on the road for days and do not have access to a shower. I have found that spraying the body down with Febreeze fabric deodorant (safe for skin) has worked wonders. It doesn't just cover up the odor, it actually neutralizes it and there is no trace of odor afterwards.

Hello Joe1.......I've read about as much of this crap as I can stand so I'll be brief. Baby Wipes and fresh deodorant work great when you can't get to a shower. No excuse for being funky. I used to fingerprint every piece of freight coming off my trailer in 90 degree weather and did not stink when I was finished. Funk happens over time. No excuse for it.

LOL DP Transport.I just skipped to the endof this godawful thread to post that same thing. I start training in 2 weeks at acdl mill then will get my trainer OTR. I am a clean person, not crazy ocd clean but if you see the bald guy with the huge goatee wiping his funky self down with baby wipes and washing his head with a bottle of water that will be me lol. I've done manual labor all my life and one thing I cannot stand is to stink lol. If no shower is available believe me I will find a way. I'm sure my trainer will appreciate it too lol
