Facility info

Appointment scheduling: Must be on time—critical for dock assignment and wait times. Early arrival (even 30 mins-2 hours) may not get you a dock until close to appointment time. No early loading policy at some points. Operations: Live unload. Check in at guard shack for paperwork. Frozen loads enter past pond before Pep Boys DC, hit A button and 1 at gate, use door by dock 29. All other deliveries use next driveway, check in near docks 3-4. Two separate entrance procedures—signage unclear. Unload speed: Highly variable. Fast unloads (30 mins to 1 hour) reported frequently, but also significant delays (2.5-6+ hours) when facility is busy or understaffed. Inconsistent performance. Lumper fees: Variable and sometimes steep ($1100 reported). Some deliveries unloaded with no lumper fees. Lumper wait times can exceed unload time (3+ hours waits reported). Overnight parking: Available on front of building and in lot. Limited quantity noted by some drivers but generally acceptable if not blocking dock areas. Staff attitude: Generally friendly and professional. Some reports of disorganized receiving, lost paperwork, staff indifference, and unresponsiveness. Phone lines reportedly don't answer. Yard conditions: Large lot with ample maneuvering room. Clean facility reported. Multiple dock entrances (docks 3-4, 29, 60-64). Other: Late fees ($500 reported). Dress code enforced (no candles, flip-flops, or shorts). High variability in experience suggests operational inconsistency.

    Stop charging drivers lumpers fees. We should have nothing to do with that. Bill the shipper directly. Such bullshit. I won’t ever deliver to a place that charges a driver for this. Send your own drivers to pickup the backhauls.

    Avoid! Absolutely the Worst place to deliver in Indiana, Average unloading time is 6-8 hours every time. Took me 2 hours just to check in. They charge $500 late fee and $190 lumper. They are extremely rude to drivers and very slow. DO NOT HAUL CHEAP freight for Core Mark. They DO NOT PAY Detention.
