Reefer haulng

i haul reefer for KLLM just got outta training and got my own truck only thing i hate about it is long wait times at docks but the company pays detention after 3 hours its like 10/hr as for the company its a good one from what ive witnessed and every driver i speak with here thinks its a good company

 

There's a bunch of info on this site about KLLM. Do a search and you should find plenty to read.

 

I have no issues with driving a reefer. A good portion of my loads are dry loads, even though I work for a refregerated company. The way I look at it you have the best of both worlds with a reefer. I have twice the chance to get a good load, since I can haul anything that can be put in a box.

I also have no issue with the sound of the reefer running when I am trying to sleep. I keep it on continous whenever possable so it is not starting and stopping, but even when it does I very rarely wake up.
This is probibly mostly due to the anti-idle setup on my truck. It has the cummons ICON system, so when it gets too warm in the cab the engine will start itself to run the AC till it cools down.
If I can sleep thru the tractor engine starting and shutting down all night the reefer is nothing.
