    There is plenty of room to park there at Muller. Just keep it to the left side of the drive. I've never been bothered there when I've idled overnight. I'm afraid I can't give you the official answer on idling though.

    It would appear from their fact sheet that trucks exhibiting the CARB sticker are indeed exempt from the 5 minute idle limit.

    So does our certified clean air idle sticker count as a CARB sticker?

    Hey, my delivery is not until 11, will they let me get unloaded early if I am there early? And do you know what time they open?

    No problem. Even if you didn't idle, I've never had a problem starting the truck. Even after sitting at the house in extremely cold temps for days it cranks right up without any hesitation.

    I want to say they open at 7 or 8 for receiving. They are pretty easy going there. Just check in as soon as they open and I'm sure they will get you unloaded before 11. It's mainly just a matter of waiting for their trucks to clear the docks for the day. Just park it at the light next to the tracks (you will see what I'm talking about when you get there), and walk around to the far side of the building. About halfway down you will see the door to check in.

    Just happened to think that could be confusing since there are tracks near the stop light on the main road when you turn in. This light is after you pull in and is down at the far end of their building.

    Okay, I'm looking at it on Google Earth. It looks like you come in and can either go straight or turn Right. If you go straight you come out aroound the back side by the tracks, Park there? Or go Right and come down past all the docks?
