[QUOTE="RolloTony Brown Town, post: 3813053, member: 42001"] That is complete ignorance. Have you seen what they deliver in freight? Where they deliver? My only hope is you’re being sarcastic. In small pack we assume a package is over 150 because it has shifting contents. As a driver you’ll ask for help to move a package that you yourself have deemed unsafe. Most times between you and another driver you’re fine. In freight I saw everything from swing sets with 5 pieces weighing 1000-1200lbs, doors and fencing that are 12-13feet tall and 200-300 lbs going to Home Depot, fluid tanks that are completely full weighing 2000lbs each, to 700-1000lbs crates that moving companies use. LTL is a completely different world from ours. 90% commercial delivery and when you get a residential delivery it’s a nightmare and you miss the scheduled appointment 3 times because the :censored: is ugly and won’t fit in the straight truck. Many deliveries are multiple pallets, and it can be anything. Ups freight teamsters striking has very little affect on you in small pack. [/QUOTE]
