Drop & Hook involves what activity?

Explanation:
Drop & Hook means keeping the tractor-trailer moving by dropping off a trailer at a location and immediately hooking to another trailer to continue the trip. The driver unhooks the first trailer (whether empty or loaded) and attaches to a second trailer, so there’s no waiting to unload or reload at the site. This makes the move more efficient and reduces dwell time. It’s not about waiting for the next load, bidding, or signing the BOL at pickup only; those tasks are separate from the action of dropping one trailer and picking up another.
