So I need help deciding about my next load

Advance to your next load, drop trailer to load and go sleep. Tomorrow when trailer is ready go on duty, hook trailer and drive to first drop. Take 10 hours and go on.

 

I dont have an elog, but rough figuring with an average speed of 50-55 mph, it can't be done. I may be missing something, but if your 10 isn't done until 5 tomorrow morning, it'll be 11 by the time you get to your dc to grab your trailer and take off. That'll leave you with 5 hours to drive. You already said that first drop is 7 hours away so....

 

Sorry could you clarify pickup time tomorrow, first delivery date, time distance, next delivery date time distance.
And area is affecting too.

 

Not enough info.. how many hours did you work today? Can you take 8/2 split and roll with it?
If you drove 7, how many on duty hours did you burn?

 

Man, I feel like a troglodyte. Last time I had to mess with this, it was on paper. No worrying about recap or 14 hour rule. I should've never made my first post here.

 

Man that is to much math for me . I dont even know where to start. Best thing to do driver, average it out at 50mph. That is a good honest and resonable number. If u can get there at 50mph with time to spare u should be good

 

Wait, today is the 11th. Appt is 13th, 271 miles.
But you are 7 hours away from first delivery right?

So you can start moving 10:00 and have 2 hours to play with. Show 15 or so minutes to unload and be full of fuel, Hit the SB, ease out of way, if your elog doesn’t hit drive line unless 5 mph or so, go to bed so, you’ll show you went to bed 5-515 pm

So 271 miles mt as 4.5 would be 60mph.
Grab an 8 hour SB and go to next load. And tell your load manager he’s a jerk.
