Facility info

OPERATIONS Appointment required Arrive 1 hour before appointment time — no parking available for waiting Check-in at guard shack, then receiving to get dock door assignment Keep trailer doors closed until facility opens from inside Unload times highly variable: 30-45 minutes on fast days, 5-9 hours on slow days Produce and frozen loads consistently take longer — 6-7 hours common No detention pay No idling rule enforced FACILITY EXPERIENCE No overnight parking at facility — McDonald's warehouse nearby mentioned as alternative Clean restrooms reported Guard and check-in staff consistently described as nice and efficient Unloading crew performance inconsistent — speed varies dramatically by day/load type Some reports of unequal treatment (certain trucks prioritized over others) Yard conditions adequate BOTTOM LINE Unpredictable operation. Guard shack and receiving process smooth. Unloading is the wildcard — can be 30 minutes or 8+ hours depending on load type and day. Come prepared for a long wait. Lightweight or small loads sometimes move quickly; produce and frozen loads expect extended delays. Plan accordingly and don't count on leaving on schedule.
