Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

They're bargaining with me on my next load. My current load isn't supposed to drop until just before noon, the next load is supposed to live load at 0830 in Vegas. They're trying to see if this load can drop earlier so I can get to the other load sooner. They said that they can get the live load time adjusted, but if I could deliver early, then I can pick up early...so they're trying hard to get that worked out...I love it when they use words like "is there any way you can....". Some planners I will go out of my way to help, some I wouldn't whiz on. The one needing my help on the next load is one I get along with fairly well, so we shall see. The load goes to a Wally DC north of Bakersfield for ASAP.

 

It's going to Porterville, and it's supposed to be a drop/hook. Never been to this DC, so I hope it isn't gonna be a drop-n-hunt.

 

Anyone delivering to Unilever in Henderson, don't try to deliver earlier than the times they send on the Peoplenet. Got here at 0600 to try to drop early like weekend Op's suggested, they let you in, but have to wait until the early time on the drop window before they'll accept the load...at least they let you park here and wait. Now my pickup appointment will have to be changed and I hope I can get an empty out of here, otherwise the pickup appointment is a moot point. Plus I have to travel at least 200 miles before stopping, which is Boron, CA, so I hope I can get loaded, and get to Boron and still find a parking spot.
