Driver reviews
This place treats you very kindly from the moment you arrive. The receptionist at the gate is very clear with the instructions, and once you arrive and park, they don’t let you go back to your truck—they have you wait in a waiting room. The staff is friendly.
It's more like 0.8 stars
This dock is not 24/7 they don’t open until 8am no matter what dispatch tells you, when you enter driveway be careful it’s quite raggedy
