You ever spill a drink, or lose your fry's, or had to slam on the brakes because of stupid mistakes that either you,, or an another driver makes.... as a Driver... You WOULDN'T believe how many people cut us off, and we have to make that truck do things that hurt shipments, crush boxes, and destroy peoples new products they ordered... I see it ALL the time... Most of my freight is from Amazon,,, and you should see what 1000 miles does to the boxes sometimes!!! Holy hell !!!! hahahaha... But I will give you the BEST tip anyone will ever offer... There are places that are "SAFE ZONES" in trailers...(2 corner) bracing... in other words "High dollar" freight goes in these spots... as well as "AIRCRAFT PARTS"... get some stickers made that say,,, (Fragile, AIRCRAFT PARTS) "Red Letters",,and put 10 or so stickers on the box... These boxes MIGHT get a ding in them,, but will, for the most part arrive in GREAT condition....
your welcome...... Rod
