All you road drivers, how many times has your set been split-load.
By "Split-load" i mean one trailer going to one final destination and the other trailer going to a different final destination?
So, in this case, you would need doubles(or triples) for the question to apply.
Also, list what division you are in-----maybe it's different in other sectors?

When i was doing road, i would say for me, it was probably under 10% of the time and probably lower than 10%, maybe 3-7% if that of the time, i would have a split load.
i'm in Division one, northeast and maybe it's different for other sectors.....?
The rare times i did get a split-load one trailer was usually going to South Holland terminal and the other in the same direction often further---maybe L.A. Meaning, i'm pretty sure the set would end up in South Holland and the other trailer would be re-paired with another going further west?
This was VERY rare and my reasons for bringing this up will follow shortly as i REALLY get into it........
The South Holland trailers were usually on the heavy side---like 15,000lbs +. My average weights were usually under 12,000lbs. More like 7,000/8,000 per trailer.
Also, i would say maybe 10-15% i would have a single 53' van---no doubles. Please include that information as well.
