you guys that work with the big carriers , whats the response when you say you can fit or maneuver into a space, theres a place in DTLA thats super tight and i mean super tight and they always send a 53. in that case what would you do ?
do you risk it all to deliver 8 pallets ?
cause my company sent another driver and he did it, but im telling you its like maybe 1 foot from trailer to fence and one foot from bumper to hitting a car

I had to put 1plt off at the Shelby county jail in Memphis. The street was lined with cars,including one parked where the grassy area is to the right of the dock. I had to goal 3 times. I have a sleeper and 53’ Reefer.

the gate is always closed and cars park in the red all the time as you can see in the satellite they're parked in front of the gate lol

It's ok to be in the safety bubble once in a while. But make no mistake, if you are a habitual person to bring back freight that other drivers can deliver... Best case scenario; other drivers will haze you. Worst case, dispatch/management will question your competence of being able to do your job.Gearjammin' Penguin, Jay5GS, LoneCowboy and 5 others Thank this. -
At some barns being a totally incompetent screwup lands you on the "A" list that gets catered to.Jay5GS, LoneCowboy, road_runner and 3 others Thank this. -
One time I got stuck with a mini fridge for a Chick-fil-A that was brought back three times. None of the other drivers could get it the freight off. 75 lbs box strapped to a pallet. I was the only one to figure out that you can park next door at an abandoned restaurant, cut the banding, and handcart the box 50 feet down the sidewalk. It's unbelievable how lazy some of my coworkers are.
