We don't go to New York City, or high traffic areas. Our Northeast freight goes directly to large warehouses and industrial locations like Harrisburg, PA, Butler, PA, Hartford, CT.

You'd be going 10 over the speed limit. What is your home policy? Every 7 days out is 1dayoff. Most of our drivers work between a 11-14 days then take off 3-4 days.

Go in at any time and you can get it washed without having to call us. Once between the 1st and 15th of the month, and once between the 16th and last day of the month.
