Hmmm, that's it for the big snow storm? Guess I got lucky. Got maybe 3-4 inches of light fluffy snow. No match for even my wimpy snow thrower. I guess compared to the last storm, this one was nothing

My load info came over and ....... Nope that load is Not going on my Van .... 300 lbs. Over my weight limit .... when load was bid on it was 3 skids 1500 lbs.... after awarded shipper raised the weight to 3300 lbs.... 2nd shift dispatch didn't catch the weight difference .... Others may do it with their sprinter-type vans and thats their choice .... Nope not me ...i don't haul Straight Truck loads for Sprinter type prices ...
So back in service awaiting the next Legal load ...

If it was a short DH I'd go and check out the freight. Picked one up in Janesville WI that was bid as 3 @ 1,100. Got there and the BOL said 3 @ 3,300. But even thou the BOL said too heavy, I could easily push the pallets inside my van. No way that these pallets were over weight. Guessing the dock help tells the office, they weigh 1,100 and the office thinks that's each skid.
