    it's also why you keep your trailer locked when coming up from Laredo. Loaded or empty. Don't want to pick up any "live cargo."

    We used to put seals on empty reefers because that particular trailer was reserved for some reason.
    I've been told at times to put 20 or so pallets in an empty trailer, then put a seal on it. So, that trailer was reserved for a particular driver and load.
     
    Vic Firth and bzinger Thank this.

    I hauled coffee beans in bulk tankers. They sealed them when I was loaded and sealed them again when I got empty.

    They may have been getting out of washing the tank out if it was loading the same beans next load?

    I always padlock my MT trailers if I park for a 10 hour break for that exact reason..."live cargo" or anything else someone might decide to put in my trailer.
     
    Vic Firth and Wasted Thyme Thank this.
