S&S Transport

Just picked up a load in East PA and headed for GF. I tried bribing my dispatcher but 60 cents a month wasn't enough to keep me south of the Mason Dixon line. Oh, well, keep rolling.

 

Lol try .75 a month.

 

I got up at 3am and made my delivery to Shippenville, PA. I was there and gone in about 15 mins. Then I deadheaded 300 miles to Yorkville, NY. This place and the other one in Osage, IA never have loads ready when they re supposed to, and have a fit if you re not there on time.

Once I leave here I ll be headed to Toledo unless Katie has something that pops up between now and then. I may just spend the night here. I only have 39 minutes left to drive. I ll keep you posted

 

Can't, reached the top level of my budget for bribes.

 

Another 3am morning. I had another stop added in Mogadore, OH. Was in and out in 25 minutes. Proceeded to Toledo to unload and reload. Now I have a 3 stop load Delaware, OH, Louisville,KY then back to the house for a Monday morning delivery less than 20 miles from the house.

Not an eventful day except the strong wind gust with a 5,000 lb load

 

Cool. I went up to Winnipeg 3 times this week, the USCBP people are getting to know me on a first name basis... It’s usually Hey You!!! Get back in line!!! Lol. Just went and got my truck up GF this morning, gotta be in St Cloud by 1000hrs tomorrow. Easy 3hr drive.

 

Today was a first. I should ve bought a lottery ticket. I left my house at 515am and got to our biggest customer at 535. Not a truck in sight waiting to unload. Normally on Mondays, there s already a line of trucks waiting to unload. Check in is usually 6am. At 545am I see a forklift headed towards my truck, and low and behold it was the man who normally unloads on 1st shift. He told me to come on in and he ll unload me.

610am, I m empty and headed to the yard until dispatch gets in. I would ve worked out of the Anniston yard the rest of the week if Grand Forks didn t have any freight. So around 8am I get a load. I dead headed to Lawrenceburg, TN then to Indianapolis in the am, then to Grand Forks by Wednesday

Once I get to Grand Forks, I reload a 1/2 mile away, and taking a load to Buena Park, CA for Monday> Its a decent run, or else been stuck on a 625 mile run to Janesville

 

Your truck must be wide open from Grand Forks to St Cloud in 3 hrs lol. Its 252 miles from the yard to New Flyer

 

Lol wish it was. I took my truck down to Mapleton where I live now. I realized I didn’t add that part. Lol

 

Went to this place today. It’s Carlson/Carfair in Winnipeg, MB. I have to do a double drop in there. Overhead view and what I encountered today. 53’ van and a T-680 condo. It’s fun in there. I usually go there after I unload in Winnipeg. Ryan knows I won’t gripe about it, and welcome a challenge. This place can be an usually is a challenge. Lol.
