    If the shipper is taking awhile and the truck stop is down the road, ask can you drop your trailer and go grab you a shower and something to eat, and come back . That way you re clean, full, and ready to get on down the road when loaded. Most times it was ok, I gave them my number to call when the load was ready

    But that will only account for 5-10 minutes of your wait time. :biggrin_25523:

    Not a bad way to spend 5-10 minutes. Just don't get caught by the shipper/receiver. lol
