Facility info

FCFS receiving – no appointment system. Open 24/7 Mon-Fri, closed Sundays. Live load operation. Drop and hook available. Wait times are the critical issue here. Most common complaint: 5-15+ hours to get a dock door. Some drivers waited overnight. A few got through in 3-6 hours. One driver in/out in 4 hours. Receiving office unresponsive to phone calls during waits. Facility prioritizes their own dropped trailers over waiting drivers. Yard is tight and small – challenging maneuverability. Safety vest required. Overnight parking available. Staff attitude mixed: some drivers report friendly, motivated employees; many report unprofessional management and staff who show no regard for driver time or HOS limits. A handful of fast/smooth experiences reported, but vastly outnumbered by extended wait complaints. Pilot and Flying J nearby (1 mile). Bring food and patience. Many drivers explicitly warn others not to accept loads here.
