Facility info

WAIT TIMES Expect 4–6 hours minimum; many reports of 8+ hours. Some outliers report 1–2 hours. Appointment times are soft—you won't get a door until they call, often hours after your scheduled time. Arriving early doesn't help; they work on their schedule, not yours. CHECK-IN & OPERATIONS Drop-and-hook only. Unhook at door, park bobtail, wait for callback when unload is complete. Check in at door 64 with paperwork and phone number in basket; they'll call you to a door. Midnight check-in available if you want to park overnight before your appointment. FACILITY EXPERIENCE Overnight parking exists but limited; street parking available nearby. Restroom at door 86 (only facility bathroom mentioned). Staff attitude mixed—some drivers report friendly, professional staff; many report rude, disrespectful, or dismissive behavior from supervisors and security. Ample dock and yard space to maneuver and back in. BOTTOM LINE Block out a full day. Don't count on your appointment time. Bring food and water. Communication from management is inconsistent at best.
