Facility info

Wait times brutal — consistently 5-11+ hours for loading/unloading. Most common complaint across reviews. Multiple drivers report missing delivery appointments. Live load operations particularly slow. No overnight parking on-site. Very limited waiting area. Tight yard conditions with difficult backing angles — concrete obstacles and debris near dock doors. Need to be comfortable backing blind-side in tight spots. Paperwork slow. Check-in process requires walking to guard shack; gate controlled by security. Staff attitude mixed. Some drivers report friendly, helpful, professional staff. Others describe them as lazy, unconcerned with driver schedules, making excuses. Receiving/delivery operations seem better than shipping/loading side. Safety/operational notes: Facility requires chain connection to trailer before inspection. Load lock bars sometimes left down on trailers. Pallet damage reported. Trailers picky about condition. Recommend getting trailer washed before leaving. Dock operations: Assigned specific door numbers. Tight maneuvering required even for experienced drivers. Night shift reportedly slower. Early check-ins possible. Some drivers reported getting docks before appointment time, but still faced long waits once inside. Not suitable if you're on a schedule. Repeated warnings from multiple drivers about missed appointments and lost time.
