In summer from may to October ish they have a custom operator that runs twice a week to ontario. He picks up cucumbers and tomatoes in lemington. He usually brings my shavings and sleeps in yard over night. I can unload first thing in morning. Just have to be super careful with forks since it is a special refrigerated slotted fin type of floor he has. He lives about 15 mins from shavings company. Works out well. I am approx 1150 km’s from shavings companies yard. So it is max he can do in a day. All van trailers. 26 skids fit in perfect. Full from front to rear and about 8” from roof.

Does it have a tarp top (not sure of the terminology)? May be difficult for a back haul for that kind of trailer in what I see hauling shavings.

Wildman Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 There is a guy that shows up to the track once n a while , he has those air things all over his car, looks kinda funny, I think he drives a truck for a living. So this is the second time I have seen them, on his car and now this thread. No clue on the actual functionality, for certain they make a car odd looking.

He told me he does two runs to ontario every single week to get veggies. Usually stops end of October. Doesn’t work in winter and is a big snowmobile. Does 6 to 10,000 miles a winter. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t want to haul themselves to ontario, I think. I only get company trucks the odd time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
