Only one delivering
I got the Siemens load early this week cause somebody failed to pick it up. It was supposed to be picked up on Tuesday but was rescheduled to Wednesday at 5:00.
Assuming it was 11:00 as usual so got down there late. Dispatch from Indy called, and tried to stress me up and hurry, but I ...
Thursday in Quakertown
Arrived at the customer around 2:00 pm, about 4 hours later I was ready to leave, but the trailer needing a washout, and the place up in Allentown closes at 7:00 pm.
I arrived at Hot Wash in Allentown just before they closed and got my trailer washed out. My next load is picking up fro...
Burris Logistics
I had last Friday partly off due to a doctor visit, but I did work night up at Abbot hauling trailers.
Unfortunately I wasn't dispatched any loads on this Friday and I couldn't get my Quakertown favorite load, that sucked beyond belief.
When Monday finally arrived I was with no...
Monroe and Neptune
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 ...
BJ wholesale
Then I'm back again at BJ wholesale distribution center in Uxbridge MA. I arrived early and tried to see if I could check-in, but was told no appointment was made for this load.
With no appointment, things start to look bad, but I headed over to the McDonald's where there's some ...
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...
Weekend
After getting loaded up with bananas on Wednesday afternoon my 14 was getting low and so was my energy levels so I pulled over in Carlisle at the company yard and called it a night. I had too much time on my hands for this load, but don't get me wrong, nothing is better than that.
I tr...
A chill day
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...
Wakefern in Jamesburg
Another week but no Quakertown this time, unfortunately. I did however get back east and this time to Wakfern in Jamesburg. I've been here a few times before and it's easy to get to. The place has overnight parking, high lumper fees, and tight spots, especially if you get here at the wrong tim...
Burris part 1
Because of the long day at the dog food factory, I got up to the cold storage later than planned, but my next load from here was supposed to be preloaded so no biggie, but it wasn't.
I had them make this load preloaded while I took my sleepover at turkey hill, I also did the same with ...
Dryvan
Had a great start to the week until I went to Abbott to pick up a load to BJ in Massachusetts. They had it loaded on a dry van trailer, so the rest of the day pretty much sucked and it didn't help when the customer suddenly had stopped with overnight parking. It was like riding a bull without ...
Quakertown
I'm back with my Quakertown loads again, but this week I was also subject to a random drug test. I was called by my dispatcher Monday morning, wanting me to head into the office. No reason was given. Of course, that's a random drug test, but I've got nothing to fear.
I arrived at Kopp ...
Dead tired
I was dead tired last night when I got to the customer in Aberdeen. I got done around midnight and slept some more over at Walmart. It was much needed, I could barely function when I woke up at 7.
I was going to start earlier, but no chance. I did however have hours to it, hours I'd ga...
What a day
I got some good sleep after my delivery last night, I went back to Diner 83 and slept until around 9. Woke up to a message from dispatch asking me to drop my empty at Abbott in Bethlehem.
After getting some food from the diner I started my trip up to Bethlehem to drop my trailer. It wa...
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 ...
Georgia Georgia
Had the Monday off because of labor day, took out a vacation day for it so I didn't lose any money. started Tuesday morning in Columbus Ohio with a load from interstate Cold storage on Roberts road, to Kroger in Forest Park Georgia.
The cold storage was kind of slow getting me a door, ...
Target
Dispatch called and changed my load so I didn't have to go all the way over to Mooresville Indiana. Instead I dropped a load in the Columbus yard and picked up another one to Target in West Jefferson. Just 20 minutes away. The appointment is at 1:30 p.m. and hopefully, I'll be home much earlie...
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.
This morning I started just around 7 and went down to Qpsi in Flore...
Another long day
It was another long day yesterday, I started the day at Hunts Point in Bronx drow down to qpsi for a load, then headed all the way over here to Dayton Ohio and called it at night. It was a good run and it was good to get parked.
My previous dispatch with a local East coast run go...
A long day
I woke up at 2 am this morning, feeling super tired. I showed up at Walmart security gate at 2:30 but was told I couldn't check in before 3:00 a.m. So I had no other choice than head back and wait another 30 minutes.
When I finally got in, the unloading itself was pretty fa...
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 ...
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...
My loads gone
Good morning and happy holidays everyone. Showed up at my 6 a.m. appointment at Dole Springfield here in Ohio, but seems like my load has already been taken by another driver.
They do have another trailer with a load going to the same location but with a different pick-up n...
No bills for this trip
Delivered a load from Tyson in Lexington Nebraska to Tyson in Emporia Kansas Friday morning, went up the to Kansas City yard to sleep cause my next load was picking up from Lineage Edwardsville on Friday afternoon. Switched to a better trailer at the Kansas yard and headed down to Lineage arou...
Hometime
I was pretty sure i was gonna make it home by on time until I got this load to Pontoon Beach were I ended up with no options other than going down to St Louis to pick up a load going west. With less than three days to my hometime I decided not to go further than Kansas City.
Shut down ...
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...

Went bed early last night, was super tired lol. Woke up early this morning because of the stupid sonar device starting to beep and talk. Noticed it was stuck on drive mode all night.
Now even after my sleeper birth I'm out of hours because of it. Called the dispatch too have them...

Isn't it lovely when you only get 3 hours of sleep and have to use the remaining 7 hours of your sleeper birth to drive in off-duty between two companies and unload.
That's what's happening today and it's not the first time in this company known as Knight Refrigerated. Yesterday I only...
