well unless truckers get paid more than i think they do  , they have a big responsibility on their backs  and sometimes given some crazy situations  ( you should have seen some of the containers i have unpacked  , feels like i have seen everything  bar a live crocodile or a dead migrant .. those international ones  can be a real surprise package )

 mind you   i did have a driver rock up  with the diesel  tied on with  a rope !! and when he turned using full lock  the tank fell off ( round ones back then ) and  rolled about 10 metres  across the lot  , awesome fun  getting it back on so the truck could be backed into the dock ( lucky it was diesel  or we might have lit  up some lurkers smoking around the corner ) .. and had a distinctive aroma  for the last half of the day

 but thank goodness it was way back then , nowdays there would be an hour's paperwork over the incident  , and questionnaire about potential solutions ( and i would still stink of diesel )
