Facility info

Operations Live load standard; call ahead to confirm load status Appointment scheduling inconsistent — facility sometimes has no record of scheduled times despite broker confirmation Wait times extremely variable: 4-16+ hours past appointment time reported frequently Drop trailers scattered throughout yard, complicating maneuvering and dock access Communication about door availability poor; sit and wait for call model creates uncertainty Staff communication breakdown between shifts and departments on load readiness Facility experience Overnight parking available but yard congested with dropped trailers Dock access bottlenecked; often operating from single door despite multiple trucks waiting Staff attitudes mixed: shipping personnel reported as friendly and professional in some reviews, but receiver staff dismissive of driver concerns and broker appointments Facility severely understaffed relative to volume Bring food, water, and patience — extended waits standard Other notes Peak hours (after 5pm) create longest delays Early arrival (3:30am for 7am appointment) may improve door access in some cases Tanker drivers especially affected by lack of capacity
