Operator: GEODIS
Facility info
Wait times: Highly unpredictable. Ranges from 45 minutes to 8+ hours. Many reports of 3-5 hour waits despite appointments. Staff sometimes delays loading even after driver checks in on time. Early arrivals occasionally accommodated but not guaranteed. Appointments: Required. Can only check in 30 minutes prior. Facility sometimes internally changes appointment times without driver notification. FCFS loads may still require appointment slots. Live load: Yes, live load operation. Check-in procedure: Bring driver's license, trailer plate number, and pickup/load reference number. Check in at specified door (varies by shipper name/location — American Italian Pasta, Geodis, Mexican Americas operate from this facility). Parking: Plenty of gravel lot available for overnight parking. Lot conditions poor — muddy, potholed, needs maintenance. When docked, trucks stick into street with traffic moving 35+ mph — safety concern. Facility layout: Tight docks with curbs and street drains directly behind trailers — equipment and tire damage risk. Building location not always obvious on maps. Multiple dock doors but some difficult to navigate. Restrooms: Portable toilet on-site (near dock 12 area) but frequently unsanitary and poorly maintained. No driver restrooms in building. Staff attitude: Mixed. Many drivers report friendly, helpful, professional staff. Others report rude, unprofessional managers — particularly in shipping department. Inconsistent experience. Operational issues: Documentation errors (overweight loads, incorrect BOLs, missing seals). Shipper liable for overages but recovery slow. Hours: 7 am–3 pm. Closes early on weekends. Requirement note: Must have valid US CDL to deliver here.
Driver reviews
Slow slow slow .<br>They let u check in early but u will sit till appt.then u get a call .then u sit waiting for someone to come check your seal .then u sit another 3 hours .and their dock have a stupid set up esp 3 to 6 ..never ever coming back here .
Don't listen to the other reviews they put you in the dark make you sit for 5 hours then they'll come and break your seal another 3 hours to unload stay away from this place if you can the only reason I gave 1star because they are not a lower number they will understand their friends first
Not much to say about this dusty place;<br>Doesn’t look like safe overnight parking,<br>No restrooms available, besides on honeypot on 100 trucks,<br>Appointment strictly,
