Facility info
Gate opens 0530–0600; stay in right lane only (left for Sysco trucks) Appointment scheduling meaningless — expect 2–7+ hour waits regardless of check-in time; arrive 1–2 hours early for better positioning Live unload via Capstone lumpers (expensive: $375–$510); unloading itself typically 30–60 minutes, but paperwork holds you 2–4+ hours after No overnight parking on-site; street parking available outside gate Guard shack and receiving office staff consistently described as friendly and professional Large yard, easy to back; can get congested at gate during early morning rush (6am appointments bunch up)
Driver reviews
Dry van delivery: GPS Truck entrance (35.9871529, -83.9464326). Open at 05:30am. Be ready for line. Check in with guard. Then back in to the door (they have Even and Odd numbering). Walk to the corner office with BOL. And Wait for next Green light. Clean restroom available. In 06:06am out 07:50am
Overnight parking is ok in their driveway. FCFS, pull up about 50 yards from the guard shack (yellow line) and set your alarm clock for 0500. They will come out about 0515 to tell to pull forward to the gate. Check in with the guard and she will assign a door. Unloaded @ 0745.
Love delivering here. Always a fast unload but do check your trailer to be sure load locks are placed back in
Worst place to ever come to been to bunch an unloaded same thing never been at a place for 8plus hours never this is insane the company it self has to do something about this i had 2 ladies load me in 45 min… come here 2 big guys are unloading me for 8 plus hours its insane they keep smoking outside not sure how many breaks they get but this has to stop we got a day as well ahead of us all yall going to tell us we have to leave the property we have other loads to pick an deliver smh sad sad sad shame on sysco an staff in knoxville here plan on not comming ever back
Waited almost 2 hours just to get to the gate. But plenty of room to maneuver trucks. Time is money and a lot of time was wasted from them scheduling too many loads at 6am. *My rating is purely from a truck driver’s perspective Wanted to give 2 stars, but the space here compared to other places i deliver to made me give it 3 **With better scheduling** this could easily be 4 stars if not 5. Again, from a truck drivers perspective.
