  • Jennifer delivering 400 pounds of live crawfish. First, she had to get them by herself, then had to deliver them without a cooler(using bags of ice), and arrives with all the crawfish still alive.
  • Jarrett not only delivering a poker table to be used in a charity event, but also for the first time on the show delivering a $675,000 Indy car on time and netting his largest profit on the show.
  • Marc getting an escort from a local motorcycle club as he delivers a columbarium tomb, intended to hold the remains of military veterans, to a cemetery in Roswell, New Mexico.
  • In the episode "Fiberglass, Steel, and Iron Wills", Both Marc and Jarrett get loads that were going to the same recipient. The receiver had specific conditions: Jarrett had to arrive before Marc (or he would not get paid at all) and Marc had to had his stuff offloaded at a certain time (and would lose money if it wasn't offloaded in time). Since Marc was much closer to the destination that Jarrett was at the time, Jarrett was forced to make a deal with Marc. Marc agreed to arrive at the same time as Jarrett, but now Jarrett had to offload Marc's load with no help from Marc at all and he would pay out of his pocket for any late penalties. Jarrett had to offload his load first, which gave him about 45 minutes to unload Marc's load (which was 50 metal cactus statues of various sizes). Marc is gloating, thinking he got one over "The Rookie". However, Jarrett called ahead and hired some movers to assist him in offloading and was able to get it offloaded in time. Marc admits that he's impressed. He gave Jarrett $150 to cover for the movers that were hired and even gives him a compliment that Jarrett is (finally) getting it and they should stop calling him "The Rookie".
  • In the episode "19-Foot Tall GIANT Robin Hood Statue," Jessica Samko was tasked to ship 40 trees to a customer. However, Jessica was caught off-guard when she was asked to deliver 80 trees in total doubling the load. Jessica then calls the customer telling her that she can't just increase the number suddenly like that and expect not to pay more for it. The customer tried to wave it off saying that she shouldn't pay for more trees and that they are all going to be shipped at the same time anyway, but Jessica is quick to remind her that it's not a few trees, it's double the trees. Jessica made it clear that unless she paid her double the price, she is not going to deliver the trees knowing the customer is on a deadline. This is one of few times seeing a shipper give a Sadistic Choice to a customer and it was satisfying to watch her complete the load to success earning double what she was originally going to get. This episode shows that Jesscia may be a newcomer to the show, but she is not messing around.
