Does FECC have any freight in Seatle/Tacoma area. It is part of the Reno NV center but every time we go to reno we end sitting for a couple days

I've always got loads out of Seatle,Tacoma and Kent Wa.Yes you sit a day or less but most times we were always preplanned out on another load before we delivered to the area...

If you are in an Express Truck and have sat two days I would consider moving. Call in to dispatch and find out how many trucks are in your area and if you can find out where they are located. If you are not the number 1 truck and not the only one in the area I would sure move south to be nearer to Reno first thing on Monday morning. Do not count on QualComm since the Express Centers are so large out there.

We have had great loads out of the area and we have also head to dead head out of that area after sitting to long. It is hit and miss and I believe a lot more miss for an Express truck if you are competing with a White Glove truck.
