Here's how it works:
Eggs are loaded onto pallets like these

The difference here is that the pic shows a divider board placed on the top where we don't use one. Just plain old eggs on top!
The top one and a half layers are shrink wrapped. The pallets are loaded onto the trailer with the sides having 4 stacks abreast facing forward/backward, 2 pallets wide in the trailer. Each pallet contains 10,800 eggs. Or by case count, 30 cases. Each case is 30 dozen eggs. If you load 30 pallets then it's 10,800 eggs X 30 = 324,000.
There's no special thing about the trailers. Just plain old refrigerated trailers.
We use locking load bars (load locks) to keep the eggs from moving around.

2 bars are placed vertically (one behind each row of 15 pallets) and one is placed horizontally behind the 2 vertical bars.
That's it! The rest is to simply not drive like a nutball.
The next time I pick up a load I'll have to take a few pics and post them.
Dunno which road you are thinking Twitch but from the plant to Harrisburg I run PA 25 w - PA 225 s - PA 147 s - US 322 e into Harrisburg then Cameron St past the Farm Show Complex all the way to Berryhill St which goes right to the dock I deliver to. The busy assed road running north and south through Harrisburg is I-81. The other that splits from 81 is I-83 which goes on down through Harrisburg to York and continues on to Baltimore, MD.
