Facility info
WAIT TIMES Highly variable and often excessive. Typical range 2-8 hours total. Some report 5-6 hours just to get a door. Once at dock, unloading speed inconsistent — can take another 2-6 hours. Multiple reviews cite trucks arriving on time but still penalized as "late" due to slow gate processing. APPOINTMENT SCHEDULING Strict appointment windows enforced. Arriving significantly early (even 1-2 hours) may result in rejection or delay at gate. Some reports of arriving early being told to leave and return closer to appointment time. Early arrivals sometimes get in 30-60 minutes before scheduled time, but not guaranteed. CHECK-IN & GATE Gate processing slow — can take 20-45 minutes per truck. Security staff enforcement varies; some pleasant, some rigid about timing rules. Use Martin Creek Road entrance (GPS may route incorrectly). Multiple trucks backed up to guard shack is common. DOCK OPERATIONS Drop and hook only. Unloading speed is the primary complaint — bottleneck appears to be warehouse crew pace, not dock assignment. Wait-to-door time and actual unload time both unpredictable. Some days faster than others; newer management reportedly improved speed slightly but still slower than industry standard. YARD & PARKING No overnight parking at facility. Truck stop 10 miles away charges $10/night. Cannot wait in entry lane except after 10 PM (recently enforced under new management). STAFF ATTITUDE Mixed reviews. Some report friendly, pleasant staff. Others cite rude, indifferent behavior. Professional conduct mentioned occasionally. Inconsistent experience shift-to-shift or day-to-day. OVERALL PATTERN Heavy overbooking with poor staging. Budget 6-10+ hours minimum. Inconsistent service quality. Better experiences exist but this is a high-wait facility with frustration as the common theme.

A lot of things are inside locked cabinets
Don't get excited when you get your text and still no call to pick up paperwork, keep waiting for the call, go back to sleep. Today is July 19 2026
So all in all my experience was very good. Within three and a half hours, everything is wrapped up, the paperwork is in your hands, and you are out, come to arrive before one hour appointment time,They are very strict about appointments.
