Facility info

Appointments mandatory — gate only opens exactly 1 hour before appointment time. Being early won't help. Plan accordingly. Unload times highly variable — ranges from 1-2 hours (best case) to 5+ hours. Multiple reports of 3-4 hour waits for small loads. Receiving can be slow despite early arrival. Gate guard inconsistency — mostly professional, some unresponsive. Night shift reportedly problematic per multiple drivers. Strict enforcement of appointment window — arriving even 5 minutes late may result in denial. No overnight parking on-site. Street parking results in police enforcement and tickets. Parking on nearby Butler Road (next to Pilot) reported as ticket-free alternative. Closest truck stop is Pilot, 17 miles away — tiny facility, full at night. Love truck stop roughly 26 miles away. Drop and hook available — some loads handled this way. No nearby rest areas or parking within 30 miles. Planning critical if unload finishes late with limited HOS remaining. Staff attitude mixed — receiving/unloading crews generally friendly and helpful when accessible. Can accommodate emergency early check-in requests. Some gate guards unresponsive. Yard conditions acceptable — no major complaints about facility grounds. Route note: I-840 approach reported as rough on driver health.
