I was very aware of all of the 1 star reviews that have been given to this place, but after being offered a very nice rate, I took a load going from Columbus Ohio to here, counting on the unload taking 9-10 hours, so I could get in my 10 hour break on their premises, in South Florida, at night, where finding parking after dark is virtually impossible.My appointment was for 6pm. I arrived shortly before 4pm, and I was given a door immediately. They still didnβt start on my trailer till right at 6, but I want to say that the unload didnβt last but an hour and a half, much to my surprise.There was no controversy here whatsoever. And yes, I understand that where there is smoke, there is fire, but as for my experience on this visit, things went as right as they could go.I also parked in the staging area afterwards, and had a quiet 10 hour reset. π€·ββοΈ
My appt time was 6 pm. Got here at 4 pm and got a door right away they said they wouldnβt start until 6. They were right they didnβt start until then but why is it 11:30 pm now and Iβm still in this door. Drivers avoid this place at all costs. Not to mention there is no overnight and good luck finding a place to park in the middle of the night π€£
IN: 730pmOUT: 340am-they seem to touch the trailer once an hour-very slow outside area unsure if this is the norm but not a fast past dc with jockeys or drivers zooming around quiet,nice and slow!-I have no complaints being I read the reviews so was prepared to just take a 10-They do not call you once complete- take advantage!5 stars for being as is and not bothering me as Iβm currently finishing up my 10 β¦. 1.5 hours left to go**if anything changes Iβll update this and remove a starβ¦ because itβs the least they can do for such long wait times! And no harassment from drivers (DESPITE THE OFFICE SIGNS STATING TO LEAVE IMMEDIATELY AFTER UNLOADED)*******Rules may be different or more strict for the day time appointments******My advice with places like these be smart! Even from those that arenβt busy and do not call (get that 10 hour break or 8/2 done: TAKE ADVANTAGE!) try to book these type of loads at night ! Get your rest while unloaded!9/2021
I wish I can put -5 stars...Delivery appointment set for 6 am.Checked in at 5:05 am and got a door right away. But...They put a DROP TRAILER stamp on my BOL and said to come back after 48 hours...Absolutely rediculos...
They will very accommodating I got there A-day early and they went on ahead in unload me
This has to be one of the worst deliveries Ive ever made. Appt.was at 6am..they put me into the door abt 6:15am which was great,but im currently still here at 14:26!! And when I went inside to get a update,they told me I should be done by 15:45 hopefully! Smdh...I will Never deliver to walgreens ever again! Whole day screwed up! Avoid this place at any cost!!
Takes average of 10 hours to get unloaded, not trucker friendly stay away from here if your in a big truck!
-10 stars was two hours late for delivery on 8/9/21 because of shipper took 7 hours to load me got here then walgreens rescheduled my appointment for two day later on 8/11/21 for 6pm got here 10am that morning they said I can wait in the parking lot and check back in at 530pm checked in they told me they canceled this load all walgreens need to go out of business I hope real soon karma
We arrived at 8:30 am for a 9:00 am appt. At 2 pm, trying to call receiving to check status of being unloaded with no answer after about 15-20 calls. I had to call a different dept to be transferred to them. Where I was told by a man that they have until 3:30 to get us unloaded. Or they could load it back and mark it as undelivered. I just canβt believe that Walgreens has that kind of money to waste on paying drivers hours of detention. Not to mention, they need to be schooled on how truck drivers only have so many hours to work/drive and they are killing that time. NEVER GOING BACK!!!
It must have been my lucky day and the product I was delivering. I checked in at 9:42pm for a 10:30pm appointment..I was out the gate at 11:29pm.. There is definitely no overnight parking here and the police were present when I arrived.
Cant deliver early cant park safely on premises in south florida with a high value load that belongs to them. Definition...... Not truck friendly
I send one of my drivers for time here and they dont help him to do what he need to do very unprofessional workers
Truck drivers should not be allowed to write reviews,, has nothing to do with the actual business, out of thousands of truck loads the one time you sit there for an extra hour or two, they feel the need to one star, how many of these comments are from the actual customer, are there fast and reasonable deliveries of product
Gota say all Walgreens DC centers need to be boy cotted dont deliver to Walgreens entir day to unload you this no lie,no respect for your time.had to give it one star in order to make a comment as for me they shouldnt get a single positive note it should be shut down.
Ok, if you already read all those negative reviews, i think this one will be lees to trust but its what i had. Checked in 2 hours earlier, very fast and friendly process, in 30 minutes they start unloading. Working hours and rules will be attached. Please check my photos. Thank you. Why 5 star - they have drivers lodge, vending machines, microwave, restroom clean, check in and out process fast and professional.
Worst place to do a delivery, appointment at 6am check in at 6:15am And Im still here at 4pm TRY TO AVOID THIS PLACE
I came here today (03/27/19) for the first time and read some of the reviews prior to entering the gate. I have to say its no ones fault if your company does not pay detention or you are not fully prepared in your rig with an emergency potty, fridge, microwave and cooker. Your mommys cant take care of you all your lifes so do some growing up.As for me, I checked in at 07:00. Backed into a door and set my alarm for 1.5 hours while I slept. Woke up called the broker to start my detention and now for some pancakes then back to bed.Walgreens may be no better then Walmart but neither is that outfit you all are working for if they arent paying you layover nor detention. Wise up, Ive worked for a company once where a third and sometimes close to half of my salary was all detention and layover. Not saying thats a good thing but just saying how important those two are to this industry. Now that Im done with class Ill get started with my cakes while I get paid for doing nothing then home for some elbow and wrist action.Lastly, I gave Walgreens three stars since I am still here unloading and the check-in process went smooth. They were also very professional at both the gate and the check-in window. Ill rerate once unloaded.I was unloaded by 11am. Again, smooth process at the guard, the check-in window and checking out at both. Ill give them a five star since I do understand that some freight has to be broken down and from the movement of my trailer at the dock I can tell there was no slacking. Most of all, I have the utmost respect for professionalism and a good attitude at these shippers and receivers. π π
My appointment was 7:00 am. I checked in 6:00 am and they unload me in 35 minutes. To 9 pallets. Very fast. ππ». They donβt have place for overnight parking but u can park on I-95, Palm City, FL 34990 itβs rest area. Use exit 87B to hwy 706 then make right on hwy 711 then make right to corporate rd. U can find parking space on side the rd but some time.
This place is truly inconsiderate of the drivers . Ive deliver to the one in Orlando and they are not like this. Checking time begins at 6:15 am everyone checks in at the same time. Theyll give you a door immediately and then you sit and wait the rest of the day. I gave it a 3 star bc plenty of room to park, bathrooms, and vending machines. You will lose your next appointment.
They dont care much about how long they twke to unload the trucks
Its a horrible place, it was 10 hours to unload 6:30 a.m. and left 4:45 p.m. horrible place, I would never want to return to this place again
My experience NOT BAD AT ALL. First of all they let me check in 6 hours before my appointment. And let me stay this 6 hours on the property. Second, unloading took 2.5- 3 hours and its not bad.
Well let me first start off by saying I have been here a few times..first..Baird shack has always been nice ..was 1 hour early this round..no problems getting in..2nd lady in receiving office also has been nice..got here at 7 am..its now 2:15 pm still jave red light..after asking this time..lady saus they schedule the unloads to take around 8 hours because the count every pcs..over all the place not bad..but corporate really needs to look into why unloading would take this long..
Take to long to unload. Arrived at 5:30AM for 6am appt receiving office donβt open until 6:15AM got door right away but took 9 hours to unload
Next time someone in my family wants to buy something at walgreens! I will tell you the abuse of walgreens with the truckers !Terrible Service! Never take a load for this warehouse again! @walgreenspharmacy
They suck....unloading takes all day...checked in at 615 still not unloaded at 1330....Someone said great place to work, Ill bet it is... apparantly no one has to do much work here at all.
Every single delivery minimum 5 hours, donβt come before 6pm
My son went for an interview. Pretty far out. From FL & they respect the nature & were SO professional. My Mom loved Sandhill Cranes... they mate for life .. thats a couple Crane family you posted walking their teen π
I give it 1 star because I can not give it less, it is horrible this place appointment 6:00 pm I arrive at 5:30 and now it is 6:00 am and I am still at the door
Got here at 5:45 am for a 6:00 am appointment. Got a door right away. It is not 1:00 pm and Iβm still not unloaded. I only had 11 pallets of cleaning supplies. Never again! Everyone is nice but the time wasted here is a bit much!
Appt at 6pm arrived at 5:30pm. At check in I was told I needed a cellphone to call to receiving to check in then I get to receiving I was instantly put in a door but it took 4 hrs to unload 10 pallets of tissue.
This job is the worst job to work at they have employees that are drunk on the job. stealers, drug addicts. They also have rodents, big palmetto bugs, maggots that was on L5 23 from a dog food can that was open they didnt throw the can away or clean the area where the can was. They have spiders, dust on the products before picking. And if you have sick younger kids this job is definitely not for you. If you have a kind heart and you are a very nice person this job is not for you. They will run over you and please dont get hurt on the job cause you will be a liability to the company And you will be fired. Also you cant have a second job working night shift. Ive seen so many people either quit or get transferred to day shift and if you never had a back problem after your first month start wearing a back brace. Your constantly on your feet for hours with only two 20 minutes break over 10 hours you get one 15 minute break. I dont recommend this job for no one especially if you are working through a temp service. but good for making quick money.
Best place to work for. Very positive environment. This company is outstanding, remarkable! I love all the people there! Its a privledge and an honor to work for this company I just LOVE them!
Got unloaded in like 1 hNo overnight parking no overnight parkingNot even around this industrial park police patrol around no parking !!!!
Place wasnt as bad as previous reviews. It took them 2 hours to unload me. I was carrying a mixture of everything. The place is clean and the bathroom is clean as well.Just carry you I.D. with you while checking in. They will want to hold it in you borrow their bolt cutters. You can arrive 1 hour early.
Stuff is cool. Brokers or dispatcher should tell you about 8-10hrs unloading time. Good place to have 10hrs break
So slow to get unloaded. 4+ hours and counting. Horrible place.
Drivers listen up if you have a mixed load that needs to unloaded and sorted you will be here 6-10 hours most likely...Ive delivered two loads here and two weeks worst the second time first time 6 hours and the second time you do the math im still here 545am check in im still here 230pm NEVER AGAIN...
Outer control this place sucks cant believe it takes 7 hours to of load 9 pallets
You have been warned here first. It is a fact that this place uses a window time to get you unloaded. If your appointment is at 7, it could be from 7 to 3 to get you done and they will use all of that time to get you empty. It would be easy to get mad at walgreens but they have already told the broker this and the broker does not tell us so we will take the load. Every load is not like this but this is the second time it has happened to me. Sometimes you will be in and out like normal. Know what your appointment times are here so you do not get blindsided. Lucky for me, i drove all night to get here so i am just soaking up the rest and happy for the detention but not a good look if you had another load planned. Bring you some food and something to make your stay manageable cause you more than likely will be here a while. Do not be fooled by the few saying this place is not that bad. It is not for them cause they are getting in and out but for the window appointment people. This place is terrible. Get your money on this load. You deserve it cause you will sit a while on this one more times than not. But they do have restrooms and one little snack area. Signs on the street say no parking but people park on the streets all the time if you arrive early.
Best place ever to work at..They allow Team members to have a vested interest in their work environment..
I love shopping at Walgreens the prices are very wonderful even sometimes when things are on sale. and the employees are super good know how to treat their guests.
4hrs here 70% of the load still in the trailer
Took forever to unload
7am appt. arrive at 6:15am a door at 6:30am Out the gate 7:40 am. Fast and friendly. Thatβs my experience
The security guard on second shift has the worst attitude ever and if u are picking up some one for years they will bard u from entering without any explanation whatsoever, I had a bad experience and came to find out after driving a bunch of ppl over the years that they do that too often especially on 2nd shift,it is very confusing and embarrassing to be barred from somewhere without any reason but I guess the guard picks and chooses who he lets in and forgets about the security issues,I guess he likes the ppl that speeds all over the parking place instead of those who look out for pedestrians and do things according to the law and have moral values
Other reviews say youll be here 8+ hours...its the truth. Do not expect to just get in or out of this place. Great place to take your 10 hour break. π Appt time was at 6pm...got here at 5:30pm...its now just past 11pm...still being unloaded.
This is by far the worst place ever. Checked in here at 5:30 am for a 6 am apt... itβs now 12 noon. And still not unloaded. No overnight parking. π€¬π€¬
Everybody posting negative reviews, but mine was positive, appointment at 7, checked in 6:30, on a door 6:45, they started 5 min later, finished by 9:00 am. Thereβs a turn around area before gate, you canβt park there, they let you to park inside 6 hours before appointment.
*DRIVERS* you will be here for atleast 6hrs. This is definitely a good place to take your 10hr break regardless of what time your delivery is they will let you park on the facility. *WARNING* Do not start your clock to get to the dock because thats where most of your break will be. Make sure detention will be paid before you accept this load! It takes so long because they sort and segregate each pallet as it comes off the truck. Very outdated place that causes drivers to lose a lot of money. Trust me this will be my first and last delivery here.
Very kind and quick loading. They allow check in 2 hrs before any delivery and anytime for picking up. Great!!
7 hours for 12 pallets. Rude peoples everywhere
This place sucks big time. I got here by 6am for a 6:30am appointment and Iβm still here waiting for 9 hours. I have been to so many DCs where they have to count pieces but this one takes the cake. The lady at the window told me that there are still about 2000 pieces left. I donβt know what to make of this but I will just keep telling myself come on you can do this!
I wont come back to deliver to the Walgreen Distribution center in Jupiter, FL, never ever again, even if I hear of $5000 load. They dont move or change 1 minute of your appointment, and it takes forever to get unloaded. The employees think that they are in the Pentagon, and management is super nasty.
This place lol fricken laughable. Been here unloading 8hrs now. Really Walgreens? You need a better system. Heads up, weather you refuse to believe it or not there are human beings out here at the other end of the trailers. Do not and I repeat myself DO NOT come here drivers! My 1st and last here! I will never pull or deliver here ever again.
This place is a real joke. Drivers do not come here to deliver. Driver had a 7:30am delivery appt and was out at 3:30pm. One of the ladies that work there told my driver that delivery times are by contract and that is the reason why they take so long. Who knows what that means but it seems like the longer they take to unload the more they get paid or something. anyhow if you want to save yourself a miserable time dont come here. Pls walgreens do yourself a favor and close down until you learn to respect peoples time and money.
The most worst place in world. My appointment 7.00am. Check in 6.37am. In door 6.45am still here 1.02pm the dock light still red.never never never come back here. 0 star. 0 star. 0 star.
Expect a long wait, to get unloaded, been here twice and both times a 5 hour unloading, for 2/3rds of a dry van.Employees seem nice enough other than you can tell this is not there dream job.Can only check in a hour before your appointment time or will be turned around. No parking on site, but there is two dead in streets before you get to the guard shack on the left, signs say no parking, but I see trucks parking there day and night, so park at own risk as you might get ran off.E
50 to 50 ratio came here once was unloaded and gone 1.5 hours. This time was longer 4.5 hours to unload. Overall not a bad place to go.
The leaders of this Walgrens Jupiter FL Distribution Center cannot continue to ignore the long download times please !!!! I arrived at 7:45 am My app was at 8:00 am and they have finished downloading me at 4:00 pm It has been 8 hours for only 17 pallets ... please do something !!!!
Appointment was at 7am. Got there at 6:30.Guard was pleasant. Went in receiving office. Within 5min we got our door # and they unloaded immediately. Left at 7:30.Everyone was pleasant and zero problems. Also, we had 40 pallets of mixed items.
Three Mexicans could unload a full truck of eggs by hand faster than Walgreens can do it with forklifts and robots. Been here for 8 and a half hours and counting.
Guards were very nice and helpful, shipping/receiving staff gave wrong info about empty trailer.
Got here at 0530 for a 0630 appt. Its now 1500 and still waiting only answer I get inside is theyre working on it
Gave it one star just so I can give you a review the place sucks
Had a 7am appointment checked in at 6.45am and now it exactly 3.00 pm and Iβm still locked at the loading dock. ....From today one I will never ever shop at walgreens again nor I will ever haul a load for them ever. Worst place ever to deliver
Please truckers this Walgreens is not a good place to deliver ur loads. I have been here for 5 hours just 5 pallets. still at the door for unloading. Very very very very bad place
My appointment was at 7am, I got to the main gate at 5:50am, it was only one truck before me, I check-in at 6am, the receiving department was in a meeting, when they come back, they get my BoL and assign me a door, at 6:25am I park, and at 6:30am they start unloading, at 10:30am I when to the back to check cause didnt feel any movement for few minutes, results that they finish and didnt put me the green light and I walked to the office and at 10:50am I get my BoL back.I read some reviews before I got here, and some driver said that the time unloading depends on what you bring, in my case it was Paper rolls in boxes, the trailer was load all the way to the top and all the way to the end, the merchandise was seating in the floor (no pallets), and the weigh was around 21000lbI hope this information help you in some way.
Worst place in the world to deliver(dry load) never, never, never again. I mean NEVER AGAIN! already 8 hours here and still waiting! No kidding! Dont come here, you will regret it! Seriously!
Better add $500 to rate for detention this place sucks
Make sure you have your pass code ready so that you wont be delayed
TruckersI guess it depends on what youre hauling I had a full water load in and out 2 hours the truck next to me was there for 5 hours. So choose wisely
7am appt time, I was early, 7hrs later Im still waiting to be unloaded. I was told by receiving clerk Im here until 4pm. Fair warning to all company drivers, AVOID DELIVERING HERE, WALGREENS DOESNT GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU. YOUR TIME OR YOUR MONEY. THEY HAVE NO PROBLEM WASTING IT!!!
My driver arrived at the facility at 6 am appt time,they said that they are working till 4 pm and he will be unloaded till 4, and he was standing there for 12 hours just for 25000 lbs,NOBODY take this place as a reciever
Its hands down one of the worst places I have ever been to. They wont call you to wake you up even though theyre keeping you up hours after your appointment. I mean I have to be on a break for 10hrs, sleeping. Not looking for a green light. I will be getting detention. I wont ever walk into a Walgreens again.
This place sucks be warned if you are late for your appointment they will make you get another appointment time you will sit for 2 and a half days in front of the property and signs posted no parking on or around there no truck stop for miles very dark once you get to the door waited for hours there too they are not truck driver friendly the next pick up not sure will make that more money lost in 2 days Walgreens this is unacceptable!!!!!!!
Well where do I start my drivers appointment was 6:30 got there at 5:45 the rule they have you would think is Fort Knocks your at even with detention fee been paid Im losing money because driver have another pick before his 34 hour break an no Respect when you try to ask its taking so long .I which I could Sue them for the load I missed because detention doesnt cover what Im losing.
Seem pretty egotistical, job scared management
Dont know why its so bad appointment for 8 got in at 730 out by 9 full load 44500.00Maybe all the reviews were late.Not a bad place at all.
Slow
O/O not worth your time, say no next time.
Great place to work if you need the money, employees not so nice thou.
They take a long time to unload can be up to 9hrs no food truck comes and your just waiting drivers stay away
As a truck driver, this one place you donβt want to come for delivery. Avoid this place. I swear you will wish you never accepted the load. 9hrs to unloading my truck folks ..!! Iβll never accept any load coming to this place again ..!! What a place folk ! Never had to deal with this in my five years of driving Truck..!! Never again
When I heard all this comments iwas scare put was totally different easy and 4hours put it feels like you going to the White House too many rules
As my father and I waited patiently for our trailer to be unloaded, I learned how to speak in ebonics. *Ahem* *inhales* Why the hell they takin so damn looong pop?
Another shinning example of how shippers & receivers take advantage of drivers. Unload time.
Avoid this place by all means have 8 pallets been in the door now 5hrs and counting its a joke and the night security blk lady is so arrogant and for a luck of a better word she is stupid and dont know how she landed the job she busy in her phone whole working watching you tube and texting all in all will never ever come back here drivers you are warned avoid this place
Been here many times and never had a problem, im usually unloaded in an hour and at most 2 hours
Here for over 3 and a half hours for 12 pallets. They lied and said that I was done after two, but I showed them on my phone where I had talked to the broker and was still under the red at 2 hours and 23 minutes. Will never come back to this location
One the slowest unloaders EVER!! Theyre Unloading 1 pallet every 15-20 minutes. It should NEVER take this long!!!
Friendly people
They are not paying the hourly wage ppl the tax rebate money that Trump said it was for to build up the economy. The H.R dept is part of the management, which means theyre not building the bridge between employees and managers.
11 hours to unloading from 7:00 am to 6:00 PMThe reason I give you one star because I cant give you half, got here at 6:30 am my appointment was at 7:00am
Good and quick
