Buy yourself a broom at any truck stop for about 20 bucks, a bungee cord for 3 and strap it to back of truck....Now you have a without with you at all times. Have to do a tad bit of work but most drivers could use the exercise.

Speaking of which, how many of you guys are certified for the new FDA regs concerning trailer washouts of your reefer before moving a load? Small carriers technically have until April 2018 to be in compliance with the reg. Compliance starts for larger carriers next month. I am reading articles that brokers and shippers will be enforcing it on everyone in April 2017 regardless. Just heard about Coyote telling a one truck guy about that this morning. -

I'll be honest I haven't washed mine out in at least 3 months. And the company I am leased to pays for trailer washouts. I just don't see the point because I'm not hauling anything "juicy" or nasty. The worst I have to deal with is broken pieces of pallet, small pieces of paper, or shrinkwrap. These new FDA washout rules are ridiculous and unnecessary cost burden.
pattyj Thanks this. -
What's this new FDA rule about trailer wash outs? This is the first time I'm hearing about it.
