    A lot of times if a drop trl comes in with a bolt or thick cable seal, they cut it off at the guard shack and put a WM seal on it. I've had that done at several WM's. Doesn't necessarily mean they are using us for storage. The jocks don't carry bolt cutters or wire snips as it's too time consuming for them to get out of the truck and have to mess with them. Plastic seals are just just yank and open.

    From my experience that has been the case in the past..i even had a Walmart slip the tongue and accidentally admit they were using 6trls for storage..after contacting company those trls were emptied fairly quickly

    Just had a Shaffer Southeast regional driver run into me here at Stanfield… They had him grab a Crete trailer and hauled all the way up to Walmart here in Hermiston

    So they'll run a regional driver all the way west, but I have to fight to get out here. They do make less per mile as a regional driver, so it makes the company better money to run a regional driver way out their region than swapping a load to an OTR driver.

    I got AT&T pretty happy with it. But kinda want a change. How’s your signal in raphine va or mt airy nc kingman az? Or carneys point nj? Those places I have trouble with signal during the day. At night no problems. How’s Verizon there?
     
    Lonesome Thanks this.
