    - When's the season for chemicals slow down?

    - Out of Dana, Superior, and QC which has the better runs as in long haul?

    - Can you make it if you lease a truck into a chemical company?

    - What do you use to clean the top of a tank after it snows?

    Thanksgiving through Jan is when we slow down.

    Long runs will be customer specific. We used to have a lot of coast to coast runs runs out of my terminal but they are going on rail now.

    I just brush it off the catwalks with a broom. If its ice you can break it up with a hammer. It takes a lot of snow to make those cat walks too slippery to walk on. The snow and ice falls between the sharp treads on them. If snow is so deep I can't get on top I park it and collect hourly pay till it melts.
