In this video we make our first ever run to New York! Probably not the best time of the year to make our first run there, but it was an experience nonetheless. IG: pts_Jamie
I totally understand the rational; but I caution against ever breaking the packing of a load to consolidate to get more loads without authorization from shipper/ broker. Reason being the receiver could easily refuse the load. That's a chance your taking, but not to say it will happen in this case. Stay Safe, Stay Blessed
Appreciate the comment most definitely. Load was delivered successfully and receiver was aware of what was going on as well. So we were good to go. But yea they can certainly deny the load in some cases.
@Adventures in Trucking An insurance claim waiting to happen in some cases. Folks really need to be careful what they take in from these videos. I'm glad you were able to consolidate and maximize earning. Stay Safe, Stay Blessed
Yea we never claim that our way is THE way plus in this case it was fine as all parties were aware and ok with it. But to just willy nilly go changing the load yea it can be bad news but here it was not. Definitely a case by case thing here ya know.
In a perfect world absolutely.. in today’s market not so much hate to break it to you.. we get emails every day from brokers shipping FTLs for 2.05/mi or less like its good lmao
That's the way to do it. 👍👍 did you make sure the broker didn't have a clause in the ETA discounting if not delivered when they expected it? You mentioned " it's a parcel, they'll get it when they get it "
As a partial there isnt a specific date or time (of course you cant just keep it on the trailer for 2-3 weeks) but when they start asking for it to be delivered by a certain day its now dedicated and most brokers know that. We told our broker whats up and they were just happy we were communicating and keeping them in the loop LOL
I drove hotshot for 5 years till November 2021. Most parcels I've loaded were time sensitive, and a LTL is open for a week or two delivery. Getting a brocker to alow time to get another load was always a terrible experience. Fmcsa states a parcel is a peace of one thing broken down to pallet sises, a LTL(less than truck load) is loads that don't take up the hole truck. Brockers always say parcel so they can demand a fast delivery. And keep the price down.
@@deluxetransport3208 hmm understandable.. yea we havent had that issue tbh. Never had a broker say this is partial and it has to be delivered tomorrow or on a specific day they may ask when its being delivered but never force a date. idk lol but yea i see where youre coming from too
We’ve lived here longer than just about everyone else and on top of that everyone knows everyone. We throw parties and cookouts and everything too. Nobody really cares.
That’s great you have good relations with your neighbors. Most subdivisions have restrictions to protect the homeowners property value. Enjoy watching your work ethic , be safe and have a Happy Holiday…
Well I was hoping I could be on the road by January but I'm about to finish laying saltillo tile on the front porch and then I gotta replace the ceiling sheetrock in the garage.... SMH... It just never ends.... I need more coffee... Eat coffee Drink coffee Poop coffee Invest in coffee...
LOL thats the funny thing about life man it just keeps on going! it never stops even when we need a break.. and dont worry youll get out there soon enough. March/April is a good month to get back in saddle but if you go sooner its all good
Is there any equipment that you don't own...???? I was thinking y'all were going to rearrange by hand...!!!! Great job but remember that the receiver may refuse the load because you broke the pallets down....!!!! Great job...!!!!
I havent driven a 4x4 in that bad of snow before so i cant say. But i can say that this adventure was definitely an experience. I just kept my speed down and stayed focused on the road

Keep hustling $$$
I'm not touching the customers freight. Your first load should always be profitable and any consecutive loads are just icing on the cake,

You cannot pay me enough to ever take another load to New York.😊
Yea not in this weather!! AGREED!
Pops looking like Lou Gossip Jr 👀🤔
Lmaooo
I was getting frustrated with laying down tile and then.....
WHAAAALAAAAA....!!!!
Watching your video gave me the motivation to get it done...!!!
so glad we gave you that motivation!

The music is cool.
Hello sir I am north of bowling green ky in a town of owensboro ky be safe
We’ve been through there! Glad to hear from ya! And thanks for the support!
Are you leased on to a company or full owner operator?
Full owner operator
Surprised you can get away with all that commercial work in such a nice subdivision. Do neighbors ever complain?
We’ve lived here longer than just about everyone else and on top of that everyone knows everyone. We throw parties and cookouts and everything too. Nobody really cares.

@@randysmith1699 yea its nice everyone is really cool.. and yea nah cant do no HOA's they just wanna control everything into the ground lmao

Cincinnati is my home. I would have liked to say hello.
gotta keep that in mind if we get a load to cinci! idk if youre a bengals fan but they killed the bills
@@adventuresintrucking1995 The Bengals won by luck, not by skill.
@@t.l.robinson2162 🤣 fair enough
who do you wanna see in the SB?
@@adventuresintrucking1995I have no idea. I do not follow sports.

LOL we dont have it all but certainly more than most. Receiver was aware of what was going on as well in this case.
Gotta do what you have to do 👍
Love the videos
We appreciate the support of our channel man thanks 🙏🏾
How would you compare the snow handling in this vs a 4×4?
I havent driven a 4x4 in that bad of snow before so i cant say. But i can say that this adventure was definitely an experience. I just kept my speed down and stayed focused on the road
