Hours to load. 5 plus. And will get trailer floor muddy if it's wet out.
Drivers; Commercial Carriers; When considering your overnight at this location please know the neighbors can hear your diesel engine running all god damn night.
Overall it s good company and they have a space for overnight, A little bit crampy office guy.
Worked as a plant merchandiser. Management is awful, right hand doesn't know what left hand is doing. My first-tier manager was/is totally out of her league, no management skills what-so-ever.
Called ahead and asked if overnight parking was ok for 8 am loading...they said yes :)
My truck gps had me come in from us20 to hwy 22 to Townline.
I always look at sat-view before I arrive so didn't have any problems finding the place.
Office is in the green single level building at top of hill by the barn.
I haven't loaded yet but so far my experience has been good.
I have an APU so noise should not be an issue.
Update..
Shipper came to my truck and a couple of others out here at 7 a.m. and was asking for our pick-up number. Mine is 4-8-27. when you're looking through your paperwork the pick up number looks like a date code.
I was already parked in a dock and he said I'm fine right where I'm at and they'll be starting to load me soon.
It is a nursery load and it's loaded by hand so give them some time. You should allow at least 2 hours for them to load.
after they tell you you're loaded pull ahead close your doors and walk up to the shipping office for your paperwork.
dont go there slow 4/5 hrs
you have to ofld by hand
your floor will be soaked wet and muddy nobody want to load your trailer
Be careful picking up from this place. It will be about 6 drops. You will have to deliver/unload between 200 and over 300 trees/plants per drop. If you are not use to manual labor, don't take this load. I'm a disabled veteran. I thought it would be maybe 100 hibiscus trees or so, but it's over 2000 plants. It took about 7 men 8 hours to load using conveyer belts to load and they expect you to place plants on pallets and move to the back of the trailer by yourself. Don't listen to the broker.
