What is the best way to load freight on a tractor trailer?
It depends on what the freight is and what the trailer is. If it's vehicles, you typically drive them on and off. If you have a van trailer with sliding tandems, you would ideally want the weight distributed fairly evenly between your drive and trailer axles. If you had a trailer with spread axles, you would want more weight towards the trailer axles, since you're allowed 40,000 lbs. on a set of 10 ft. spread axles, as opposed to 34,000 lbs. on your drive axles.

What does it mean to dream of a tractor trailer with its door open?
This suggests that your personal matters are not secure. The tractor trailer symbolizes yourself on your journey through life, together with the sense that you are carrying a heavy "load" or "baggage." Having the door open - assuming it is the door of the trailer - leaves open opportunity for theft or loss. On the other hand, if it is the door to the cab that is open, perhaps you are waiting for a partner or even for a driver, suggesting that you want or need someone else to control your life.
