Facility info
Appointments strict; check-in starts around 3am. Early arrivals wait until appointment time. Door wait highly variable — 10 minutes to 6–8 hours. Lumper fee charged before unload begins ($100–$450+ depending on load). Unload times inconsistent: 1–2 hours on good days, 4–9.5 hours on bad ones. Plan for 3–6 hours minimum. Street parking only, very limited (5–6 spaces). Do NOT park in front of dock doors or in gated area. No overnight parking officially, but some drivers report street spots available if you arrive early evening. Bathrooms in office; must ask/ring bell. Facility condition described as dirty, icy in winter, tight backing from narrow street. Staff attitude mixed — ranges from "nice" and "helpful" to "rude" and dismissive. Lumper fees expensive and controversial; charged to driver, not shipper. Paperwork delays common (30 min to 1+ hour after unload complete).
Driver reviews
They were quick, I'll give them that. Unfortunately this is one of those places that lets Capstone do whatever they want. $325 for eight pallets. Nothing was stacked or pinwheel, because I only got a half trailer to begin with. Meanwhile the kid that unloaded me probably got about 20 bucks for that 30 minutes of work. No, it wasn't McCormick, either. Easy Reser's load.
Slowly slowly
Appt time: 0500 Arrived: 0445 Departed: 0700 staff is polite and professional Bathrooms inside office You will need to park and walk inside office to check in Tight docks, you will be backing in off narrow busy street but docking is doable just be patient. When I arrived, all the docks were filled, but my wait was less than 10 minutes to get a door. Wait times could vary due to the lumper Overall, decent experience
