    Carbon black was a regular back haul for us, hated that stuff.

    Christmas trees were another bad one. They were wet, the needles made a mess, and the smell stuck around for a long time. We had feed loads that the shipper refused to load because the trailer still smelled like a forest.

    Cotton seed.

    I got refused at a food shipper after that because there were "spider eggs" in the e-track. That #### is ridiculously hard to remove.
