Ever wonder what a truck full of locally made potato chips looks like?

Probably not. Now you do.

We just hauled several full pallets down from The Alaska Chip Company in Anchorage. Boxes stacked to the roof, not one bag crushed the whole way to Seward.

Turns out chips are surprisingly sturdy cargo for something that crunches for a living.

Here's the thing though.

Chips are light.

The truck barely noticed.

Give us a 500-gallon fuel tank or a load of lumber instead and it's the exact same truck, same route, same "sure, we'll grab that."

Light stuff, heavy stuff, oddly-shaped stuff. If it fits, it rides.

Tag whoever in your life would fight you for first pick of that chip pallet.

When did we become Seward's part-time tire shop? (Not really.. read on)

Honestly, we're not sure.

It started reasonably enough - we needed a few tires for the fleet, got them in our regular run & someone saw.

A contractor needed a set of heavy-duty tires for a work truck, didn't have time to go grab them. Freight's freight, that one made sense.

Then a guy called about tires for his wittle Subaru. (great cars, but lets be real... its fun to say. You said it in your head & it made you smile but we won't tell anyone 😉)

Then one of our neighbors.

Then somebody's mother-in-law, who wanted four all-seasons and had zero interest in making the drive to Anchorage to get them.

We said sure.

Here's the part that actually surprised us.

Costco has tires. The wholesale shops in Anchorage have tires. What nobody around here has is a spare day to go get them.

So now tires ride along the same way groceries and freight do - picked up, driven down, dropped at your door or favorite tire shop.

Fairly often this time of year..

Work trucks. Family SUVs. One guy's project truck that hasn't moved an inch since May, but sure enough, it's getting new tires before it does.

We're not a tire shop. We just already make the drive, and it turns out a lot of people needed someone willing to grab four tires on the way back.

Termination dust doesn't wait for anyone to get around to ordering tires.

Might be worth a look at what's on your rig before we actually see "the dust".

Tag someone still riding on nearly bald summer tires. We deliver.

Have we delivered something weird for you?
These are not the weirdest ones we have had, but a few memorable deliveries..

People ask us what we won't deliver.

Usually they're expecting a list.

Here's what actually made the truck in the last while.

A pair of prescription glasses, picked up in Anchorage and driven right to a cabin on the Peninsula.

Groceries and spare parts, rushed to the dock for a boat about to leave (a happy & healthy crew is a hardworking one)

Bunks of lumber. Custom cabinet & woodworking material.

A sewage tank, empty & new, (Thank Goodness) on its way to get installed.

At one point, a live animal rode in the truck. Yes, really.

These are just some of the things transported & delivered

So when people ask what we say no to, they're usually picturing something odd or oversized.

That's not it.

The only real no is hazardous material. That's about the whole list.

Everything else, we've probably already hauled - or we're willing to figure it out.

Let us know what you think we'd turn down. We'll tell you if you're right.

Looking over this week's loads, we noticed a concerning trend.

At first it was one delivery.

Then another.

Then we started keeping a mental list.

Costco dry goods, headed out to cabins.

Lumber, for that one project before the ground freezes.

Tools, odds & ends, closing in a shop before the weather turns.

We didn't think much of it at first.

Then a customer said it out loud, half-joking: "Guess I'm not the only one behind."

He wasn't.

Fall doesn't send a warning up here.

It just starts showing up in our warehouse one load at a time, whether people are ready or not.

So we're asking early this year.

What do you need to look at closing out the season with?

Get it on our schedule before the rest of the Peninsula beats you to it.
