    And this was the entrance to their place...:biggrin_2552: Went very slowly not to get scratches on the sides of the trailer...

    Ohhhh all the places we go in this company.... :biggrin_2552:
    Do you folks go to places like that?
    At the dock being loaded...

    They said the load was "about" 44,300 lbs... So, I ran to the truck stop and got the weight... 81.730 lbs... :biggrin_2552: And I had to go back to that shipper... :angry4: They removed two pallets and then I was fine...
    Took some back roads to cut short and avoid Atlanta traffic...:biggrin_25519:

    And finally, the last place I went today to deliver the load had wide open docking area.... :yes2557:

    With practically no more time to go much further... I parked at Pilot nearby that receiver...
    And plan on leaving at 4 am central time... going to take my "hometime" this week.... from Saturday till next Saturday.... got lots of things to do... but will try to rest some... :biggrin_25519:

    I refused a NJ load yesterday. My usual run wasn't going today, so they presumed I was interested in going to NJ instead. I said "no thanks." He's a new guy and acted a little put out, and asked me "why?"

    Because I don't feel like going to NJ, that's why.

    The farm looking pictures look pretty much like most produce packing facilities I go to. Probably since those are usually located on or near a farm, coincidentally. LOL

    Eww. Too bad they can't get you something near York instead, surrounded by truck restrictions or low overpasses of course.

    Edit to add: In case you're wondering, I'm in my comfy chair at home, where the pollen is blowing around in the soon to be 73º breeze. No snow in the forecast, just a little rain later. Might just have to put the new registration sticker on a murdercicle and make the neighborhood less quiet.
