Wakefern Foods

Arrived at Abbott in Bethlehem around 8 last night, checked in for my next day pickup, but I'm always lucky at this place and get it around 20-21:00, so an hour later I was on my way to Jamesburg NJ.

Walmart WCH

Long day for sure, started from King of Prussia this morning around 8:30. Headed down 76 towards Philly and over to Gloucester NJ to pick up bananas. Arrived an hour later and checked in.

Now all that was left was to wait wait and wait. Just after 14:00 i was assigned to a door t...

I had a two-stop delivery on this trip, the first was Costco in Monrow Township in NJ and the other was Restaurant Depot in Neptune. When I finally got unloaded in Neptune I had more stuff left on the truck. Somehow Costco hadn't unloaded all of it so I went back to Monroe to figure out ...

Holiday weekend

With 4th of July almost over I headed down to Washington Courthouse for a delivery of bananas from Gloves Gloucester City NJ.

The appointment was 3am on Monday and my next load was from Kopp Turkey in Harrison to Quakertown PA

Urgent load

It took literally forever yesterday getting unloaded up in Quakertown, but no worries. I got another 10 hour break down, which was needed because my planned delivery next day in Richmond Hill NY got canceled, they needed a produce load from Florida to be delivered in Elizabeth NJ and a second ...

Return to Ohio

The delivery out on Long Island went thru like a breeze, just after 9 I rolled away towards Bordentown for fuel then bananas in Gloucester City.

A pretty chill day I must say. Started this morning in Monroe Township NJ delivering the Tyson product to Costco on Costco Drive, checked in, and did all that stuff you do there. Was immediately assigned to door #144 and 2 hours later I was done and could leave.

My next dispatch howeve...

From Pottsville to Costco NJ

Calling it a night just about now, pulled over on the shoulder right after the tollbooth here at route 32 in New Jersey. I have this Tyson load going to Costco in the morning. The appointment is at 5 am. I picked this up at Tyson in Pottsville earlier, I'm actually pretty positively surprised ...

Back to Jamesburg

Another trip back to Wakefern Foods here in Jamesburg NJ again, this time with a load from Abbott nutritions.

Despite the crazy weather and the amounts of snow that came the last couple days this has been a great Tuesday. I delivered the Turkey carcasses on time in Quakertown at 10:00am. Got a low key stress free load that was dropped in the Carlisle yard bank to Jamesburg NJ. Now I got like 13 hour w...

Bensalem

Then I'm back at Bensalem again, finished my produce load in the Bronx last night, actually a little earlier than usual. Spent the night watching "don't fuck with cats" and had dinner. The show is dark but pretty good.

White Toque

Haven't been able up update very much lately on this blog, mainly because I've been busy with work, my project and washing my hands.

Things are really getting crazy over here now, they're shutting literally down everything except grocery stores and pharmacies. It's really scary t...

Same old, same old

Nothing new is going on here, still doing these New York City loads on Mondays and Tuesdays. My truck was turned in last week for body work, scheduled to be done when I arrived on Thursday, but it wasn't. Ended up in Indianapolis with a load dropped at Johnson & Johnson. I was supposed to ...

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...

Just another Thursday with pharma

Looking for an empty

The banana room

It's been a while, but here I am with my next blog update. I'm now with a load of bananas at Wakefern in Newark NJ. They do have lots of overnight street parking and first come first serve. Wish I knew that last night.

Just received the phone call, now about to move over to door #4.

Back in Philly

Delivered the load on time at Fresh Express in Harrisburg, but they didnt have any empty trailers, dispatcher tried finding me an empty without much luck. Decided to stay over at Walmart next door until further. Got a message later on saying I should pick up a relay that was expected to be the...

From rain to chain

It started with rain and ended with chains. This load with soda from Sacramento to Spokane Valley suddenly turned into a real winter story.

Earlier on that evening when I was rolling out of Sacramento fully loaded with soda, it got dark and the rain was pouring down. I was getting tire...

Shitty start of a new week

Ita started well, managed to find a pretty new empty trailer at the yard in Columbus too. Went to the Cloverfield...
