He probably has to back dat ### up, if anything.

 

So, maybe someone can spare me a call and tell me why I'm told to go to the Laredo SNI OC before bringing my load into Expeditors International (it's ultimately crossing a border - guess these people take the load from there into Mexico). The SNI part of my trip says BX and my tasks are to go to a "primary booth". What is it, exactly, that I'm supposed to do at SNI?

 

Before any trailer goes into mexico, it has to be inspected by SNI and instead of the regular gate with a speaker they have service bays to check the trailer and any issues will be repaired before you deliver it to the forwarding agency. Hope this helps.

 

And some days they take their sweet time and only have 1 booth open and the line can wrap out all the way into the street

Well, yeah that too, so just make sure you leave plenty of time for that process, and if the trailer is due for a PM within the next 3 months, be prepared to wait until they can do the PM for it to be clear for you to leave.

 

I hope you never get pulled over and the dot want to inspect your ###! haha

 

yep, trailer has to be inspected and before it can cross the border.

Don't make the mistake I did once, and not get it inspected LOL. You do that, you will be waiting for them to live unload your trailer, when they feel like it.

 

Won't be a problem, I tend to keep my ### well maintained.

 

I was hoping you all were joking about the Laredo BS, but I see you weren't. I was lucky and there were only 4 trucks in front of me. By the time I left to deliver my load, the line was out to the road. By the time I delivered and came back, it was even worse, AND they had opened up all the trailer inspection lanes.

I passed my trailer inspection, and the maintenance department is telling me they'll get my stuff done soon. Apparently I needed a PM done, and a bunch of other stuff, so they're going to do that, too.

 

I have a trailer hooked to my truck that I'm pulling down the interstate
