Smallest/lightest Load You Have Hauled?

Bruce showing us another side...

Wow! That just proves how addictive ice cream can be.

Perhaps.

In reality it's the result of a miss-delivery or short-load. Or if errant ice cream containers dropped onto another store's pallet because the loaders at the DC basically threw product on-top of a high pallet. Who really knows, except that it was a mistake. and yes in this case, an expensive one.

I've also had to pick-up single pallets that were miss-delivered to one store and drop them at the correct location.

A friend of mine is a tanker driver. He hauls Helium and claims that they need extra weights just to keep the tanker on the ground.

Smallest load was 1 brass pole 4 in round, 9 feet long and weight was 97 pounds it went from LA to Phoenix and had to he tarped.

You have got to be kidding me! OMG, I could have hauled that in my cargo van.

I hauled two large filing cabinets one time, about 500 lbs. Got paid an extra $50 for unloading these at the delivery, too.

I hauled a large, padded Manila envelope 650 miles on time. No idea what was in it, but my trailer was empty and it was considered a “Hot Load”.

Well, haven't hauled anything, yet....

I passed an Averitt Express flat bed on I-40 West out of Nashville the other day.
He had 1 electrical transformer on a pallet, the size that you see in neighborhoods. He had it sitting over the drives, 2 straps.

When I was with my trainer we were given load info to stop at a Kenworth shop. Picked up a gallonish size bag with fittings in it, and a piece of cardboard with what looked like a head gasget on it. Drove it 40 miles to Black River Falls.

I just hauled 4 pallets of some kind of piping 400 odd miles. 1400 pounds.

Felt like I was driving an automatic. Hills I usually crawl up I went up in 20th at 65. Lol

That just looks like your trailer needs a quick clean out more than its hauling cargo

Couple weeks back I hauled 4 pallets of Hershey's candy bars from our terminal to Tempe Arizona. I think it weighed like 4500 lb. I remembered joking about it at receiver there must be gold flakes in these candy bars to drive 1200 miles for this.

I was making great time going up those mountains in Arizona...

Empty trailer 1100+ miles from delivery back to shipper. It was their trailer.
