Staff excellent! Sadly , they all are overworked and therefore underpaid! In spite of that , no delays in getting loaded.
Very good company and very friendly and nice Staffs.
Good place to get loaded. They usually have you back on the road again within an hour. Employees are friendly and easy to work with. By appointment only, make sure to get there 10 minutes beforehand. Upon check in you must provide the pick up number (starting with a “C”). Check in area has a clean bathroom.
Some pointers:
- Hi-viz vest required whenever you leave the truck
- Don’t open your trailer doors until you actually bump the dock
- Trailer needs to be absolutely spotless inside to get loaded here (they do have a cleaning station if your trailer doesn’t pass their inspection)
- Once you are loaded and the dock light turns green, do NOT pull out of the dock. Go inside first. They will give you the paperwork and then accompany you outside to close and seal the trailer.
Easy to get in and out and these guys are fast at getting you loaded and back on the road. Drivers lounge with a bathroom is a big plus and they even load on the weekends. They have scheduled appointment times so doesn't matter if there are 6 trucks there. It depends how busy they are and who is next on their loading schedule.
