1 residential-sized Whirpool washing machine.
Had it right in the middle of my flatbed.
Just for shits and giggles...I ran a rope from my headache rack to the machine and hung out a couple t-shirts and a pair of jeans to "dry" when I parked at the truck stop for the night.
(It was for the laundry area at my home terminal...)

I was driving a dump wagon a long time ago and it broke down on a side road, the boss and I were working on it and a kid about 10 or so walked by and he said, what you got in the trailer? the boss said, dead bodies, the kid turned white as hell and took off running.. that was pretty funny..

At one company where I worked, one of the drivers was telling about hauling a load of cadavors to the NY medical college. At a red light, he saw a reflection in a store window that two guys were openning his trailer doors. He said he ran back to the back of the trailer, and when both sets of feet went up into the truck, he closed the door and drove off to a police precinct. When the cops came to the back of the trailer, the guys were BEGGING to give up.
That company hauled almost half a dozen of them that I know of, and I'm glad I never got one.

My Dad hauled a dead baby in a casket one time witha load of HHG. The child died at the time of the move, about a few days before, and they wanted the child buried at :shock: the new home (I guess thats where their whole family live, vicinity-wise).
It was prepared by a funeral home like any other body, but it still freaked him out.
United got a contract to haul all the bodies from a mass suicide many, many years ago as well. The deal was to pick them up at port and drop them at funeral homes along routes. Dad didn't participate. :wink:
