The 1 pallet in the nose rule

Sounds like you already knew what the pallet weight was. And the shipping clerk didn't have a clue ....

 

It all depends on what markets you work in. Guys that haul a lot of fresh produce need a 53 because the product is lighter, and they fill it nose to tail.

 

If there's a rule, it's your own rule.
Trucks have different empty weights.

First truck I drove could take 47,000 in the 53ft van with full fuel.
I've leased trucks that could do 45,500 in a 53ft reefer with full fuel both truck and trailer.

Rig I own can't go far over 44,000 with full fuel because I have tons of stuff in the cab.

 

Yep can take 47 here if loaded perfect but like to keep it 44.5 or less. 32,680 empty

 

Your kidding right?? Please please tell me your kidding abojt havein 8 ft of space between skids...


Naww i decided that your kidding..Ya cant be that stooooopid..

 

Only depends if thats standard lbs or metric lbs...

 

That will be the time you head for a scale and find 46000 on the drives and 18000 on trl tandems..

 

Weight of feathers depends on size of bird.....A swans feathers will be heavy compared to your lil birds feathers "Snickers"

 

Kick the mrs out.... LOL
