Trucks have to park on the street, walk up to the guard shack to check in, then check in at receiving, then walk back to your truck on the street, turn your CB on their channel, and wait for them to call you to get unloaded.
And I have never understood why warehouses charge to unload their products that they ordered.
The receivers are nice though unlike the guards

Not organized here back an forth to office an guard shack
Park on street and walk to security. They will make you turn around and go back to the street. Checked in @ 4am on a 5am appt....slept on the street that night. Called @ 4:15am...docked/dropped trailer...bob tailed back to street...lumpers called @ 5:30am for $150 to unload cat litter. Departed @ 5:45am. Things really get busy here after 5:30am. Local guys come in and out. Early appts seem best. Good luck
Arrived at 9:30am, and still waiting for delivery, did not finish yet now is 2:10pm, never come back, so slowly, this company ruined all my day, my load for today was canceled because of them
In 05:00 am now is 12:30 they didn't touch anything. Very slow and unprofessional. Parking very tight...
Worst place to deliver. At least 8 hours are a must. DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU WANT TO PICK A SECOND LOAD AFTER THIS!
Mix reviews but They start Accepting Delivery at 4:00 AM atleast 3 hours Minimum
No matter wat time is ur appointment jst check in at 4 am and u can be lucky
And overnite parking on street for abt 10 trucks
Stay away from this warehouse!!! you will definitely be stuck here for more than 6 hours!!!!!!!!
appointment was at 7: 00,now 12: 00 PM I still haven't been unloaded!!!
Small place, guard is never at front desk to check you in, takes hours to unload! Lumper is $100 plus $2 for check ! Just an unorganized area been here 3+ times. Must park on the street then check in at guard and office. Be prepared to park in a tight tight area. Docks are so tight drivers are always helping each other back in. They will bring paperwork to your truck once done unloading.
Very very slow,i am here from 5 am in the morning and still here now 2.24
The customer service at Receiving is a joke. Angry and surly security,. And an extremely tight yard... Won't deliver here again.
Very tight to park plus you have to park your truck on the street then you have to report to security and receiving department until then you wait until the call you ,appointment was at 5am done by 10 am, and be ready to pay their lumper very high , staff very friendly
It's a grocery warehouse. If you're doing a delivery plan on spending some time as usual
Delivery appt 08:00. checked in 07:50. @16:20 got signed BOL. If you value your time then this place is not for you.
Drivers, stay away from it. Better reject a load going to that place. This Food Warehouse is a total waist of your time. 16 pallets of dry freight takes forever to unload plus paid lumper of $250. This place is redicolus.
I had a good experience. APPT :8:00 am Check in : 7:30AM OUT BY: 9:00AM. $175 lumper
If there's -star I would give them -7star just offloading 5 ballets took me more than 7 hours and I paid lumber of $300
The customer service lady they have working the front desk is terrible. Hung up on me 3 times
Attention do not delivery here they deserved -20 stars 8 hours minimum unload nasty employees very tight docks
Best way to describe this place is misery, just misery.
I need to find a different distributor I am very disappointed with the service ,have to place orders a week before.. You never get the orders on time ..
People were Friendly. Checked in at 415am for a 630am appointment. Empty, paperwork in hand at 600am.
Need to show up early to find place to park on the street. Little room to maneuver in the lot. Extremely tight backing in. Very slow and often damage product and leave it for driver to deal with. High lumper fees.
Takes forever for merchandise to be delivered. I placed deli order Thursday and deposit balance before 11a.m for next day delivery but I got my stuff almost week later. This was second time they played with my order. I regret going back to them. My refrigerator is empty and they're killing my business. No more business with General Trading, your company will not put my business down no more.
7 Houers for unload and $350 lumper. This place is sucks
Dont waist your time delivering at this place, Been here since 5:30am with a delivery for 6am now is 1pm & still not unloaded plus they charged me $200.00 Lumper.
F this dump. Never again. 7 hours in a door and still waiting. And $350 for lumper.
The most horrible and terrible place I ever delivered a shipment to for 13 years, very tight and guess what, since 5:45 am I am here and still not released yet and it s 15:25 pm now, stay away if you can
I was lucky! Apt was 12 pm! Check in 6am unloaded 7 am
Do not deliver here!!! You will be stuck here all day. They take their sweet time to unload.
Out in 45 mins, papers in hand. (refrigerated)
Quick professional polite staff. Arrived at 430am for 6am appointment. Put right in door and out 515am.
Tight parking when other trucks are there, blindside only.
For refrigerated only:
After right at Holiday inn, take Right on broad street gate is midway down block on left side.
Bad customer service from sales rep on initial order, but has a lot of products might order from in the future.
The worst company i ever delivery a load
The docks is too tied you can t pull forward your tractor I gota appointment at 6AM i was in the dock for 7hrs the lumber fee is too much Shitt
Drivers be careful this company and don t pickup for them Aload they re all sucks receiving office guys,forklift drivers everybody out here
8 hours in the door and still not unloaded , don t come here
They are exploiters of employees try to force them to charge three thousand pounds in 30 minutes if they take you out of work ...
long, very long. it s not convenient to smack a car, very little space. all do not care how much you wait. do not take the load here. I won t come here anymore
Appointment at 6 so checked in at 5:30 am and its 12 pm still waiting. Stay away from here
Very slow people 8 hours to unload the truck still waiting. there trailers are park at front of docks very hard to back in
Lunper 450 $ what a nonsense appt 6 am now 1400 still not unloaded. Workers here damaged cases on purpose I had Clorox load everything duble stack with air pillows. But when they're broke down pallets they do damage cases later put dmg on BOL's. This place is one big dump
I have been a customer for over 40 years and the treatment I have recently received was not only poor but disrespectful from customer service. I understand that the chaos lately has effected everyone but their( the company's) lack of communication and conduct have reflected poorly on the supposed business mannerisms expected from a company such as yours. I am very displeased. I had placed an order via the app a week ago and they failed to notify me that they had cancelled my order and then proceeded to tell me they were only working with highly valuable customers. Yet, we are monthly customers and have been for the past 40 years. I did not feel valued as small business owner.
Do turtles work here?!!!
Unbelievable, half trailer only and still waiting for 6 hours .... and they still dare to charge so high amounts for lumper s services...
10.5 hrs to unload they said there is no room to put anything also $275 for the lumper fee. never again
8am appt. Checked in @ 7:30am, it is now 12:20pm. Trlr is empty. They are counting the product, as they break down the pallets. Won't sign STC on paperwork. Charged $400 to unload... Disappointed with their professionalism here. Detention is costing them more in revenue, than missing product...
11/02/2020 at 11:50 a.m. I checked with security this man is the dirtiest person I have seen anywhere I visited there with a very bad attitude. I hope you take action with this rude man, with the visitors.
6am to 3pm super slow unloading!!! And 350$ for a lumper
Park on street to check in, very high Lumper Charges. Super tight docks to back in, 6 hours to unload dry van, with only 6 different SKUs. I parked on street night before, with no problems.
No consideration for a Truck Driver's time. Docks extremely tight, very little room to maneuver. This Place Sucks !
Rude stuff, dirty lot, Took this idiots 8,5 houres to unload.
Lost a whole day of work for a 50 mile trip.
Don't accept loads going to this place by any means!
TERRIBLE ..had an appoint to delivery at 9:00am it is Now 4:15pm and they still have not Finished unloading my trailer. It s a shame because I watched everyone come and Go and now I m the only person here
Terrible yard, unprofessional employees. Bad place to deliver, no respect for fellow drivers, would've given 0 star if there was an option, avoid this as much as you can and Thank me later.
Long wait, (took about 3 hours) typical warehouse. Walk bills to security and then go inside to get lumper price, pull in dock trailer and park bobtail back on street.
They open at 3:30am.
Park on the street then check in.
Arrived 1am.
Appto 4am.
Checked in 4am.
Got door 5am.
Empty 6:45am.
Lumper $125.
They don t take credit card.
Tight place, too much traffic.
When leaving there was 20 trucks on the street.
Never again with a load here. You got to pay $275 lumper to sit all day to get offload. Never take a load here again.
Well as you can see they don t have very good reviews, hard place to get into absolutely horrible
Tight docks,6 hrs unloading,OTR drivers avoid, should be drop the trailer and go to parking lot policy and after you are unloaded hook the trailer and go, would be much easier for drivers to back in
Place sucks...waiting time to unload 4-5 hours....truck drivers nightmare. stay away!!
Slower than death on stilts. Make sure you get a quote for lumpers before you back in a door.
Truckers dont come here!!! Unloading time 6-7 hours and high lumper fee
horrible these people charge 250 on a lumper and they take more time than 8 hours to unload never again it's also very uncomfortable to park.
Got there 5am unloaded by 10am.Good customer service.
Park outside and then check with the guard, and you will her for a while i don t care if you appointment its for 8 am
Avoid if you can. Had a 6a appt and it s now 2:30p and I m still being unloaded. This place is a joke! Charged me $450 lumper fee.
Appt at 8am, check in at 7am, door by 845am. Ok ok things are looking up; maybe I'll get out of here at a decent time. Currently 1347. From what I can see one pallet is sitting at edge of trailer. Been like that for about 45 minutes. Why? Of course I come to this place and have my time for picking up load for home time jeopardized smh.
Arrived 0745 for 0800 appt. Didn t start unloading til 1045. 1300 still here. NEVER AGAIN
Absolutely horrible company and terrible business practice. They've been holding our order for over a week. They bs you around. When we asked why our delivery didn't come when they' said Apparently they couldn't find parking and so they left. My shelves are empty. They will never let you talk to a supervisor (clay) he doesn't return calls. When driver finally came a week later he wouldn't unload the merchandise which were paying for this. Requested my floor guys go outside and unload everything unless I wanted to pay for his ticket. And took everything back and left. A company that hangs up/yells at their customers is not one im interested in working with. I'd rather pay more and give it all to another competing company.
Not bad Checked in 8:30am to 9am appt. park on the street walk to security then the receiving office and wait for call to get a door and was out by 10:30am
Amazing. Concrete understanding of business and model. And solid business tactics
Your load on pallets you ok.If it's floor loaded you will there all day.
I delivered here today to the refrigerated side (off Broad Street).
The yard is very tight, I highly recommend sliding your tandems ALL the WAY FORWARD before entering.
A sight side maneuver can be achieved IF as you enter you stay VERY tight to the right side, nearest the trucks already in doors and swing hard around to line up to your door.
It IS VERY TIGHT.
The staff on the refrigerated receiving side were friendly and efficient. Angel unloaded my truck very fast, and was very helpful.
I was in and out, in less than 60 minutes, which is impressive for any food warehouse.
I would have no issue coming here again.
I have VERY LITTLE experience with the dry receiving side, other than to say, the guard seemed friendly enough. Parking on 16th Street sucks donkey balls.
A good customer to deliver to, though.
It was fine most likely like other grocery will type warehouses where you have to wait to get unloaded because there's breakdown involved and then you have to wait for the receiver to check into product I was probably there 2 or 3 hours but you have to be patient it takes time
We demand a union to protect our underdeveloped rights, the arbitrariness of the company owner, and the threat of workers with expulsion if they do not stay for more than fourteen hours until the end of the work, even though the work here is twenty four hours and we will reach our voice through all social media sites until our demands are fulfilled
Parking is tight. Better have your a game on. Parking on the street then walk.
First and last time here. Do not except any loads to come here unless you're prepared to sit a whole day, or if you're being paid 2 days worth. I got here at 0530, and still waiting for them to finish checking each & every box,, it's 1600 rite now by the way. I had to cancel a load I had schedule for today. Oh, and it's very tight here. Very hard to back up here into a dock door, and very hard pull out as well. No room to maneuver. And 350.00 lumper!!
DO NOT ACCEPT A LOAD FOR HERE!!
One of the worst management in the Busines in the history of man kind
