Facility info

Operations Appointment required — call ahead to confirm product availability before arriving. Check in at front office before backing. Live load operation. Wait times highly inconsistent: some drivers loaded in 30-45 minutes, others report 6-10+ hour waits. Product availability from onsite production facility directly impacts load times. Appointment times frequently not honored; local drivers sometimes get priority. Facility experience Tight backing — challenging for inexperienced drivers. Multiple narrow docks (8, 9, 10 noted as particularly tight). Older facility with high forklift and pedestrian traffic. Move slowly through yard. Overnight parking available but limited — ask office where to park so you don't get disturbed. Restroom situation unclear from reviews — one states no restrooms, another mentions portable toilet in decent condition between warehouses with regular cleaning. Staff attitude mixed. Many describe loaders and office staff as friendly, helpful, professional. Some report rude, unprofessional interactions and lack of communication during long waits. Convenience store across street. Restaurants blocks away. Truck stop 1.6 miles away. Directions WA-539 north to Main Street, turn right (swing wide). Left turn on 1st Street recommended over 2nd Street for better access. Call facility's directions line for specific routing. Get clear dock assignment — multiple buildings onsite. Bottom line Facility capable of fast turnaround (under 1 hour documented) but equally capable of extreme delays with no clear pattern. Product readiness unpredictable. Definitely call ahead.
