My plan is to hang in Greensboro until I get a load. No more dh! I will catch up on some sleep hopefully before Friday I can get loaded.
Cheers mate!

Well P&G company won't let me in or won't unload me, because as they state the van has to be registered to the company and it has to have a company logo on it. Sitting here waiting for dispatch to figure out something.

I get the "decals" requirement. But basically can't be an o/o? Nuts!
Magnetic signs, slap them on before you go in, problem solved, once loaded or empty, peel them off and put the back in the box
Laredo please Murray and a quick out!! Lol
l'd be heading to a sign shop with the carriers name, location, MC & DOT #, and $100 bill.
I thought after Sunday (Funday) you would be out of sharp Poking sticks....lol...
I would hope that magnetic signs and a copy of the contract showing that your leased to that carrier would be proof that the van is "registered" to that carrier.
How's about that!
Was going to get fuel up at Pilot off I 35 in Clear Lake IA, but went into Kum & Go instead.
Wow! All employees wore tie. Reminded me the old classical day of the '60, I really like it.
Hmmmm..May be we should be wearing the suit and tie too eh? LOL.

We "issued" our guys door magnets. Never know. But that doesn't fix the "registered to the company" issue.
Don't let that Tie fool you....that very large C-store chain uses that to impress you while charging you 40% or more markup on instore items...also not known for good working enviroment for employees from upper management located out of Corp. offices in Des Moines....local help are usually nice people...
Very nice local indeed.
I thought that if I wear tie, I might be able to drive the rate up 40% more. Certainly, my customer will get a true professional services. Really
, I do worth 40% more, lol.

If empty...not a bad location for freight...I live 45 miles SE...there is a Walmart plus other big stores or good food straight east about 3 miles ...in bad weather the next 35 miles south is a Bad stretch of road...

Thanks. I'm actually heading south for a pick up tomorrow. I ran through Iowa a lot, there's something serene about this state

At that point if I didn't care I'd have told me to look for it on craigslist or ebay !!!
Duck tape letters be really creative!
EMPTY! After hours on and on they decided they can bring out a forklift to the parking lot and grab the skid. After an hour or so, they decided just to let me thru, that is after I confronted them about letting thru unmarked sprinter right in front of my eyes.
Regardless, decals are coming in ASAP! I have my carrier getting me the magnet sign for the van so I won't run into issues like this.
Also Murray to clarify the "registered to the company" These folks think that if you have company's logo on your van, then it makes it company's van and not the person who actually owns it. So yes indeed my friend it was about decals aka company logo on a van.
I didn't ask for extra $ for sitting there, I just asked for a load outta here
My first time driving thru WV, WOW! what a beautiful state that is. Except the freezing rain in the mountains.
