Question Impatience!!!!

My car was released to the transporter company Wednesday and was scheduled to ship on Friday. Does anyone know if the transporter compaines work on the weekends? Also, will they work on Monday? (Labor Day)

Thank you

What country do you think the car is in at this moment?

If it's in or around GB, then it may still be moving toward the ship., or even on it by now,,,,,,,,,

I am in Utah. The car was delivered to California on Monday. It was released to the transport company in California on Wednesday and should start the trip to Utah on Friday. The trip should take about 12 hours by truck. I want to know if the truck companies run during the weekend or will they run on Monday?

Thank you for info.

Even truck drivers get a day off.

Perhaps you should expect your MINI will be unloaded on Tuesday and then fully dealer-prepped and ready for you this Thursday - and then you can be pleasantly surprised if you get it earlier?

It's just an idea of a way to be more patient.

I would not expect the trucks to be running Monday.

Most of us here in the USA take advantage of our Holidays & skip work, if we can get away with it.

Just be plesantly suprised if your car makes it earlier.

The wait is almost over. I am going to pickup my car this afternoon. I will post some pics after I pick it up.
