With your run of luck lately you need a +1 kinda day be safe maybe we will pass along the way today, white ford van pulling a black 24 foot enclosed trailer
Well I got to the first consignee and guess what they don't accept skirted trailers so I go to Louisville terminal. My truck in the parking decides it's a fantastic time to throw red lights that !stop! And engine fault stop engine in the parking lot. I creep it over to the shop disconnect my trailer and now it's being looked at by a mechanic. Couldn't even get my trailer in the docks. So now broke down at the Louisville service center

View attachment 13387 If your a Team Truck Louisville KY is for you if your by chance single steer Clear of Louisville its not for you.
Concern I see a lot of Company Contractors at Pickup and Delivers not in Uniform. Or May have a shirt but wearing Bermuda Shorts with Raiders on it and Wearing Shower Shoes. Or tank tops and No Company Rep. I suggest weather your a Driver or an OOP it doesnt matter Read the Contracts fine Print. In the Military we had a uniform weather it was Welding gear style or Camoes when I went to Region to play. Out here one of the Reason I Picked where I decided to Land is Uniforms. I shake my head with disgust. Shame on you that are not man or women enough to do what you signed on the dotted line for!!! As Ricky Said to Lucy You got some S-plain-n ta do. Have a nice day.

They should design them trailer skirts to be mounted with heavy duty hinges so they can swing up out of the way
I really hate those sloped ramps to docks in rock and roll you'd open the doors and the truck self emptys!
NOT GOOD

That'd be epic. This particular place my landing gear on my trailer is so close to the ground I can't get my shoe under it. It hits the ground when the fork lift is in the trailer. Hooray for that lol. I'm sure I'm not the first or last driver to be in a similar situation
