    If its eagle pitcher it'll be bagged material from that mine site. Hard had and glasses required and a decent trailer, preferably a duraplate although I saw a few ms and t trailers there. Dispatch told me duraplate. Heavy loads but they have a scale on site. You will have to calc your axles as its a plain platform. Follow the mac 23 directions. Gps/mac 8 will put you on a real bad right turn.

    Van drivers get hard hats? LOL

    Come to think of it some of these places are heavily into safety so I believe it.

    Yes some Georgia Pacific shippers want you to wear their hardhat if you don't have one. Nothing like putting on a sweaty stinky lice infested hardhat you've just seen the previous driver checking out turn in. I put a large handkerchief over my head first then burned it when done llol..
