Facility info

Check-in & Operations Fast, efficient process in most visits. No appointment scheduling mentioned. Drop and hook operation. Guard gate check-in typically quick, though some report 45-minute delays during busy periods. Staff usually professional and friendly at entry, though consistency varies by shift. Delivery turnaround Stated 72-hour window often takes 5-6 days in practice. Trailers typically ready next day for pickup. Facility & Parking Clean, well-organized yard. Plenty of maneuvering room. No truck parking available on or near premises — do not park on street overnight. Separate trailer yard on Lancaster. Follow Lancaster to Depot Court for main facility access. Staff & Attitude Predominantly friendly and helpful across most reviews. Some gate staff inconsistency — range from grumpy (early morning shifts) to professional and accommodating. Security occasionally slow during peak times. Safety & Equipment Issues Yard dogs drive recklessly and can be rude. Unsafe parking lot conditions reported. Guard shack uses manual driver license number entry rather than scanning (privacy/data security concern raised). Other Trailer availability: Empty trailers plentiful on-site but drivers sometimes directed elsewhere unnecessarily. Tandem slide instructions posted and easy to follow. Notable facility comparisons: similar setup to Ross distribution center and Home Depot stores in cleanliness/organization.
