    There are also older and jankier trucks still around which need the engine running for things like the lights and/or the hydraulic loading gate in the back to operate. Both these things are non-negotiable safety needs when loading or unloading a truck.

      If you are using the lift gate that’s not idling. Once you’re ready to start rolling the delivery into the business you can go ahead and turn that truck off
