I'm NJ born and raised. I'm currently doing NJ gas stations (mostly northeast, think Bergen, Hudson and Essex counties. The Five Boros I mentioned in a previous post are Staten Island, Brooklyn, The Bronx, Queens and Manhattan, ie: NYC for those that ain't from around here (I've done a lot of city work, both fuel and chemical, on previous jobs). The oil company fleets and companies that only serviced NYC would do the stations in the city with 30-35ish foot long trailers, I went in with the same 45-48ish foot trailers we use in Joisey. Delivering fuel to gas stations in New York City with the longer trailers meant you needed to use every inch you had, you had to be precise.

How many here have backed into a delivery from the street on Broadway in Manhattan during the Friday evening rush hour, you got to see your opening and get it done. No time for the "Klunk - Klunk - Klink - Shake - Shake - Shake" of an auto in that scenario.

Food stuff into NYC usually means Hunts Point? If so I never been in the actual terminal market but have done other stuff in the area, that's a bit of a screwed up neighborhood to say the least.

If you had one of those calfs on the way to the city it would have "fell off the back of the truck" and there would have been some good BBQ's that summer.;)

I just think it was cute to mention the "birthing" issue - always good thing to have your assets go up.

Just never imagined nearly Just In Time - Delivery

the shake and jostle to a momma cow when she is close speeds up delivery.
The cows will back away n form a circle around her when birthing.when you go to unload them it can be 1 huge fight to get them out.
Another thing load n drive 25 miles n every cow will be standing sideways heads to the drivers side due to crown of the road
