You mean like this..........................
These loads can be tricky but I don't mind them! Gets me back home almost everyday and pay pretty well.
Usually a load of preloaded shingles into the DC and one of these back towards the house.

This is long ago, but I was hauling a load of gas to a service station and saw a bag laying on the hwy but it had broken open, and whatever spilled out that i drove over sounded crunchy.
A ways down the hwy another bag, and another, so i stopped and it was bags of lava rock.
This went on for probably 10 miles, and then ended. I guess the pallet ran out of bags. Drove another 50 miles or so, and there was a truck pulled over, driver checking his load, i stopped, and had a good laugh with him, just an empty pallet remaining of what was a full one of that decorative lave rock, headed to a Home Hardware store.Feedman, FerrissWheel, Kyle G. and 3 others Thank this. -
I guess I’m picky but I 99% of time avoid any load that requires a tarp.

This one just happened about a week or so ago but any machine used to crush glass. Because not only does it get on everything when the machine tips over onto the deck and when it tips back off of the deck but it also catches on the grease or oil on your binders and leaves a nice little glass paste.
Some big chunks of glass some straight up rocks of glass and of course that fine Misty powder which is just oh so good to breathe.
And yeah we did run it to try to clean the conveyors a bit.
The rest of my thoughts have already been mentioned.

Just don't tarp it.
A plywood mill asked me to help them, as they were so short of trucks. I said well if you pay this, and never mention the word tarps.
If they really want it moved, they will forget about tarps pretty quickly.
If a contract says tarps, cross it out, send it back, and see what they say. You maybe pleasantly surprised.FerrissWheel and cke Thank this. -
Not going to lie, when I was doing CA to WA I had 4 partial loads that required tarps. I risked it when I got to shipper and asked if it needed to be tarped and they said no so I just ran it, luckily it didn’t rain.FerrissWheel, MartinFromBC, cke and 1 other person Thank this.
