🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟0700 appt ......01/11/212245 check in 01/10/212330 door...... 01/10/210315 check out with paperwork 01/11/21All the good reviews are true! I was in and out and showed up after 10pm. In fact no trucks allowed until 10pm.Look for the Green Light sabers to guide the way 😆Backed into a door I was assigned, put paperwork on tail end.My light terned red as soon as I hit the dock.I was unloaded paperwork signed and brought to me.NO LUMPER FEE 👏👏👏If I was to own a distribution company, This is the Prime example of how to run one!I will hope to come back to this place.If I could give 100 stars 🌟 I would

This place has NO consideration and total lack of respect for the drivers bringing them all their products! And whoever designed the entrance and parking AND the entire lot must’ve used the measurements of a car and not a 53’ trailer-it’s tight

If coming from 691 west bound only use exit 3, go left on route 10, and then left on to East Johnston Ave at the lights. WF approximately 1 1/4 miles Yard jockeys extremely helpful. Outside carriers must report to guard shack after parking. Gates to parking area are closed during the day, so dont arrive early and expect to park. There are no pull offs on East Johnston either. If you are early coming from 84 east bound on 691 you may be able to temporarily park on the up ramp exit 3. Same applies westbound.

My appointment was at 3am, got there around 11pm. Checked in and got a call for the door around 12:15am . Got out from there at 1:30am. So I would say overall it was really good 👍

Pitiful location.. just no place to be waiting to get to your appointment. Horrible drive through a residential area with 2 low bridges.. exactly 136 in the center.. into a tiny community narrow road, sharp turns, huge boulders and k walls to block trucks from driving on their abundance of grass.. no room for trucks. I of snow pack and you wont fit under that bridge.. people will keep going there thankfully no matter how bad.. but not me. Never again!

This had to be one of the easiest Receivers Ive delivered to in recent memory. I arrived for my 7am appointment at 6:30am, they had me in a door shortly before 7 and unload was complete by 8am. They also have a staging area where you can get some sleep if you arrive the night before. Definitely wouldnt mind delivering to this establishment again.

Whenever I go here it always seems busy. The parking lot is always filled with employers vehicles. It seems that they have a lot of trucks that need loading.

Very quick to unload! 0800 appointment, arrived around 0230, assigned me a door right on the spot. Backed into dock and the light turned red immediately with a fork lift pulling off the load. Will definitely come back here again! Came from NW Minnesota with spuds

If you come before 6 am or security guard is close! Park your truck and walk to the receiving office located next to door 4 or 5! Don’t waste your time waiting for the guard check!

Great place to delivery. Very organized, polite sand professional! Overnight parking available. Appointment at 8am. Arrived the day before at 10pm, at 2:00am they called me and by 5:30 am I was out! Space to maneuver and they allow 2 trucks at the same time in the docking area. 🌻👍🏼🌞

Review №41

I am a trucker and the set up for waiting for your door is messed up. They have you park three deep and you cant get around each other when you are called to your door. So the person in front had to get woken up so he can move. There has to be a better way to do it. The workers are all very polite.

This is a rat hole went there to deliver the temperature on the refer unit was good they started to unload and then they told me they rejected the load because the product was hot which was not true and after like 3 hours later found out that they had no room to store their product thats why they did not take it

Staging area for about 15 trucks. Cannot show up at staging area until 22:00 the night before delivery. You must leave after empty, cannot return to staging area and no street parking available.Check in with guard, will call you with a door whenever. Open doors, back into door and then you are able to check in receiving office earliest at 02:00.There is a TA 2 miles away.

Review №85

Awesome place, quick to get you unloaded, only down fall is their is no lumper service available, to me this is not a problem I love lumping my own loads, but if you have mixed pallets the driver is responsible for breaking them down, or you can call an off site labor site who will come do it, but they charge highway robbery ( Worst then Capstone Logistics).

Really rude place, maybe its just that young man treated me like nobody, i got there earlier because there were lots of comments that they overnight parking, yeah that parking was almost empty then there was guy came to me asked my appointment name was and told him its midnight then he absurdly told me come back at appointment time that was it, he did not even wanna hear what i was trying explain to him my driving time ending etc, so they should update their info stating no overnight parking maybe add we are not polite, dont wanna hear you what you gonna say etc
