I delivered overnight to The Rat Hole on the River (some people know it as Marietta OH). and this afternoon headed on up towards Canton, OH. I get about half way up towards Canton and I get a call about a load picking up in back down in Athens OH going to Missouri. Called back 5 minutes later, "That's a go, head on over to Athens and I'll send the load information over as soon as I get it." So I turn around and head back down I-77.
I get 4 miles from my exit down at Rat Hole and I get a call. "The pickup address has changed. Instead of Athens, it's picking up in... Canton, OH."
Soooo, back up to Canton. They were closed when I got there, but they had the freight sitting outside and ready for me.
That's a mailbox, and inside is my freight. I signed one of the BOLs and left it behind, in the mailbox, and then, all by myself, hand-loaded all 100 pieces into the van. Now I'm on my way to Missouri.
Hey, when you need your flanges you gotta have your flanges.
