    well i was refering to how you'll load in MD, deliver in IN, but then reload in IN and take it back to MD.. i always wondered why didn't IN just process their own product instead of sending it out to get processed in another state..when i did flatbed i hauled alot of lumber, and i'd pick up unfinished lumber in north florida and take it to Texas, to get finished, then i'd bring unfinished lumber from La to Florida to get finished.. i'm still trying to figure out this whole logistics thing and why it goes the way it goes.

    Picked up a load of TP in Ogden and hauled it to Paris, TX. At Paris, it was taken off my trailer and lined up at the next dock over. Wouldn't you know...got planned on a load going back to Ogden. Moved my trailer over one dock and was loaded with the same TP that had just been taken off my trailer. And hauled it back to Ogden, to the original shipper.

    I didn't care either way. It was light and paid well.
