    Just wondering if there is any parking areas near the steel mill. I'm a tanker driver that has a load for Monday morning. I will be down there on Sunday evening. Thanks in advance!

    There's a BP/Marathon with truck pumps and a decent size "lot" at this location. Not too far off from Nucor. Looks like a gravel lot. Certainly closer than any of the big name t/s's. The burger shop next to it has a sizable shoulder as well.

    I was going to be close getting my break in, then I realized they are central time so I will gain the hour I need.

    Sure, I'm on my 34hr restart break now. I will gain my hours back @ 1500 tomorrow. I have an appointment @ 0800 monday. I'm starting in eastern time and delivery in central. Therefore I gain an hour. When I start Monday I need a full 14hr clock to do all I need to do on monday. I.E. washout and reload.
     
    Mudguppy Thanks this.

    I parked at jacks for a day and half before. They had load information wrong said load was 20 foot long turned out 40 foot long and they act like little girls about the tarp thing there. So after chr sent the wrong trucks there three times they paid me to buy an extra tarp and go get it. Bunny thing is consignee set the metal in water when I got there,

    Ah, gotcha. I was hoping you weren't thinking you'd gain an extra hour on your 11/14 by crossing time zones.....lol

    If you park on side of their 2mi long driveway past emp.entrance but before ck. in shack you can roll ahead thru gate without starting your day till you your ready, watch at every light on way out for marks in road where over the years coils have slipped off trailers onto road an made long marks in road.
