    I don't load the trailer. That's not my job. 4 pallets or 40, I don't care. I negotiate a rate and that is all I care about. I check temp, set reefer, verify paperwork and seal, and leave.

    7, come 11, and the hard way 8. Trucking is a crapshoot, so many ways to lose.

    If you'd been 2000 over would they have let you take it or made you go back to dump it?

    In Wisconsin, most of the "mom and pop" farms are being replaced by these "mega" farms, and many now have platform scales for deliveries in and out.
