Hogs definitely. I have farmed all my life and the protocols are far different than the past. I believe a lot of end points (packing plants) even have a drive through wash for the bottom sides of the trucks to wash and disinfect. If hauling hogs from nursery to growers or to finishers those trailers will be washed out and disinfected after each use. Not quite as stringent with cattle as disease problems not as bad as with hogs.

Do cattle and hog trailers get washed out after every use? What are the regulations on this and where is the washing normally done? Is it the drivers job to do this?
