Back from Virginia
I finally made it back from Virginia to the company yard in Columbus Ohio. The load was to be dropped there for another driver that'll be taking it to Utah.
It was a long day yesterday finding my way back to Ohio from Virginia, but the trip was fine, I did however have some probl...
Homebound
It was a long way home from Boston to Columbus, but I did not run during the night this time. The heat and the truck that wouldn't idle at night plus the extreme headache I had made that impossible. I was popping pills to make it go away and it eventually did. I woke up around 8 am and was gro...
Siemens Delaware
Got waked up by a phone call early this morning, I should have turned the volume down I guess. I do however use the wind-down and sleep monitoring on my phone, but they called just after 6 which is outside the window.
There was a driver unable to pick up his load from Siemens, I've don...
Going to Connecticut
Another Monday is done, didn't sleep too well last night because of a dog in the neighborhood spending his night out in 16 degrees. Poor pup! Was a lot of barking and woke up me around 2 am. I did however get back to ...
Reefer problems
Been having some issues with the reefer on this trailer, it randomly shutting off due to an alternator/battery error so I decided it was time to fix it, so here I am at TA in Wheeling WV.

To Bethlehem
I got a new dispatch this morning, a trailer from the Carlisle yard needs to be taken to Bethlehem PA. So I headed out of Bronx and towards Carlisle.
On my way down there they called me again and wanted me to take another trailer first, from the yard to a cold storage in Elizabethtown ...
The lost load
I was up early and didn't get much sleep last night, but i slept well for a few hours. The produce load out from Springfield was supposed to be pre-loaded at 13:00, I showed up on time and they'd just put the trailer in the door.
Trailer was done loaded between 15:00-16:00 so i left so...
Gregory Packaging
I showed up to Qpsi just over 9, got loaded and ready to go by 11. The trailer was dropped in Tobyhanna a few hours later, to no surprise they had no empties up there.
I contacted dispatch who routed me down to Abbott in Bethlehem PA for one. They yard jockey wouldn't let me have...
Friday morning, Pepsi time
Another day down at the Pepsi plant. They're all exactly the same except the routes on the board left for me when everyone else have picked theirs.
This week my car's in the shop to replace a broken oil pump so I'm using alternative transportation methods to get here. Because of that I...
Back to Florida
On my way down to Russelville yesterday afternoon I ran into problems with my weekly 70 hour limit again, I've been to busy with the previous loads so I made it to a rest-area in Ozark AR. Spent my night there and took of next morning the last 50 minutes to Russelville and did my delivery. A l...
From Cali to Oregon
A little late because I decided in the last minute to do an inspection on my truck at the Fontana yard, but there were no problems or delays at the receiver because of it so I'm good.
It's crazy tight and busy in here, probably one of the worst places I've been to. Now just got into a ...
From Ohio to Arizona
Just arrived, but two hours late. No problem, load was not even ready. Waiting at the dock now.
Dropped the other load this morning at Kraft, stopped by my terminal after to pick up some new trip sheets and a trailer.
