Facility info

Operations Drop and hook typically fast and easy. Live load/unload highly unpredictable — waits range from under 2 hours to 12+ hours with no communication. Check in at guard shack, receive dock assignment. Appointments don't guarantee timely service. Guard shack can be bottleneck during peak hours (mornings/weekdays slower than evenings/weekends). Food-grade trailers require thorough inspection before acceptance — keep yours spotless. Need real pickup number for load pickups. Facility experience No overnight parking onsite; street parking available in surrounding area. Bathroom availability not mentioned in reviews. Staff friendliness mixed — shipping/receiving and security generally described as nice, but guard shack service inconsistent (some helpful, some inattentive). Facility is small and tight for maneuvering/dropping trailers, though one review notes "large facility" and "ample parking for vehicles." Lot layout confusing — GPS unreliable, facility entrance on left side. Watch for bolt sticking out of concrete near guard shack. Parking lot described as "crazy" but manageable with alley docking. Reality check This facility is a coin flip. Drop and hook runs smoothly. Live load work is a gamble — come prepared to wait hours with minimal updates or communication from dock. Some drivers report zero dock activity despite on-time arrival and no response to calls/emails. Weekend and after-6pm runs move faster than weekday mornings.
