Default Drop Yard

Hi Everyone,
Where can i get a list of Drop yards around the Mid Atlantic states? And is there an average price that most drop yards charge per night/ month?
Thank you
Also are there any drop yards in the Newark area?

First ~ if your working for a company they will give you a list of the different places. Is this Your own tractor ? An O/O ? I've never heard of a *drop yard* for different/personal tractors or trailers. I've seen some tractors parked in what we call ... Storage Lots ... if they have a special large lot in the back - - I've passed them on the hwy with the over-sized travel trailors parked there during the winter months .... maybe if you google Newark Storage Lots ... it might help. Sorry can't help you in this area.

Pretend ? ? ? ? ?

What'd you do? Haul off and RETIRE like I did?

Of course, now that I have a full range of "bionic hearing", courtesy of the VA, I might see about getting back behind the wheel again. For another year or two... Maybe....

Good to see you back. You are back, aren't you?

the owner downsized to 10 drivers and i wasn't one of them. but then again, throwing the qualcom out the passenger window didn't help

"maybe" is right WW, what's stopping you?
