Facility info
Check-in & communication issues — AI-based system unclear and frustrating; remote call box operator often unhelpful or rude; no local emergency contact number; staff don't communicate when loading is complete (watch dock light yourself). Loading/unloading problems — Inconsistent load planning; improper weight distribution on drive axles reported; slow loading process with long gaps between trailer movement; some loads overweight and facility unwilling to redistribute pallets to fix it; wait times highly variable (30 min to 12+ hours). Wait times — Unpredictable. Some drivers in and out quickly; others report 6, 12, 22+ hours with minimal updates. Can get very busy. Facility & staff — Yard switchers inconsistent (some productive, some inactive); friendly/helpful staff mentioned but also reports of poor attitudes and dismissiveness from remote support; reasonable maneuvering space. Positive notes — Fast pickup for some; easy drop and hook for others; water provided on exit; friendly yard personnel reported occasionally. Appointments — Booking recommended but late arrivals get doors; no notification system when done loading. Communication and load quality are persistent pain points. Patience required.
Driver reviews
My appointment was at 10pm. Now 10 am. Still nothing. Im 12 hours here.
Loading was good, just under 1.5 hrs. Kind of annoying that I got a green light, didn’t receive a finished text and in the beginning instructions it doesn’t tell you what to do also nobody around to ask. Asked another driver and it’s one of the places you get a green light you’re clear to pull out and drive around the property to get your paperwork. Was nice that apparently on your way out they have cases of water for us to have
Lack of communication been in the dock 3 hours no movement no nothing
