When A Drop and Hook Goes As Planned

Drop & Hook Goes As Planned

When a drop and hook goes as planned, it’s a beautiful thing!

Drop & Hook Operations Are Quick

A smooth drop and hook pick-up can be a 30-60 minute operation when it goes well; and most do.

Drop and hook deliveries are about the same then they go as planned.

Live-Load & Live-Unload Operations Are Not Quick

Compare this with the one to five hours it takes for a live-load pick up or live-unload delivery.

This Pick-Up Goes As Planned

We’ll pick up our pre-loaded trailer in Lebanon and head north to Portland before turning east and stopping at the Love’s Travel Center near Boardman, Oregon for the night.
