I’d use OD, FedEx or some other LTL that has all their ducks in a row.

OK, now the next question is who loaded it? We know who are closing them, but is it XPH driver or someone else loading it and not placarding the trailers. Yes the FOS should see as should the driver, but it all starts with someone.

What are the odds???? Sit it outside and it might get wet or let it on the dock were it has a 99% chance of getting f'ed up

He was fired
Ever see a driver bitching that he has to make UN placards for his load before he leaves? Just walk over to the trailer that it was unloaded from. Pristine placards just tack them off the trailer. LOL

The point is the driver should not have to make, remove, or attach the placards unless he was the one that unloaded, or loaded it.
Another fall guy.
At our place they just hung a sign stating that its the drivers job to make sure we have the proper placards & paperwork before leaving the yard. Don't know what kind of discipline if any could be issued if any of it is wrong....

Yes it is the driver job to insure he has the correct paperwork and placards before he leaves the yard. While in the yard all the fine will go to the company once it rolls out the gate it all on the driver. Last I check it's called a pre-trip inspection the one thing many fail to do.
Placards are left on empty trailers for days at my place & nothing is ever said about it....
It’s really bad . It’s a daily thing at our barn.
Our empty trailers don’t sit for more then five minutes!
It’s usually trap freight that’s non hazardous…

It can be hazardous to the operation if you “trap all day” like my facility

Heard thru the linehaul grip-vine, XAB is supposedly over 80 trailers behind on city ops, even without an FAC operation. Also. I heard there are other terminals in the same or even worse situation as XAB. Just glad I don't do P&D anymore.
Lots of unbilled hazmat.
Is hazmat billed in a faraway country like the rest of our freight?
I don’t know. I know the csr’s can’t bill it anymore.
Yes, but the boss can pull up an original BOL when you need it. At least that has been my experience, even recently.
