Facility info

Appointments Required Appointment-only facility. Strict adherence mandatory — arriving 30+ minutes late results in no priority, potential 12-hour waits, zero detention pay. Reschedule if more than 2 hours late. Arrival Timing Park no earlier than 1 hour before appointment. Arrive earlier and you'll be turned away — no early staging space. Come on time and be ready to back immediately. If you show up early, provide phone number and park off-site (Bonelli Street area has no-parking/red curb signs — risky). Check-In Security checkpoint required. Wait times reported 15 minutes to 1 hour. Check-in quality varies — some staff professional and timely, others reportedly rude or unhelpful. May have to park in turn lane outside facility to access guard house. Loading/Unloading Highly variable. Reports range from 30 minutes to 5+ hours. Typical average 2-3 hours. Food product facility — trailers rejected if they contain hay smell or aren't clean. Unloading consistently slower than loading. Dock Operations Very tight backing. Multiple reports of trucks hitting concrete barriers and requiring 40+ minutes to dock. Some dock assignments require pulling completely into street with traffic. Yard congestion frequent — staging area fits approximately 3-5 trucks maximum. Drivers turned away if no door available; directed to off-site parking. Parking Zero overnight parking. Extremely limited daytime staging. Lot described as "tight," "mess," and cramped. Street parking available on Bonelli Street (~1 block away) but enforcement status unclear.

    This place is getting a single extra star for having a very nice gate guard. Everything else about this place is terrible. You can’t come early, as in more than 30 minutes, and there is nowhere to park to wait. It took five hours to load me up, which is simply too long. But worst of all is the lot is tighter than hell and no full sized sleeper should come here without planning on taking about twenty minutes to back into the door and getting the last door requires you to pull forward onto a busy five lane road and block traffic.

    Shipping and truck enterance on 7th Avenue. You check in at guard shack, I checked in at 7:00 p.m. for a 9:00 p.m. appointment and got the door at 9:00 p.m. out at 12:45 a.m., be ready to spend three to four hours at loading dock after you back in. Backing is little bit hard as there's no enough room to maneuver. You can park at Bonelli st if you are early, but park at your own risk as there are no parking sign on the whole road I stayed for 12 hours nobody bothered me. E-Z scale Nearby but they close at 9:30 p.m. shipper check trailer as well after you check in make sure your trailer is clean. Room for 4-5 trucks only
