Mclanes in Hebron,Ky
If you get a delivery to Mclanes in Hebron,Ky make sure you arrive at your exact appt. time. Every time ive delivered there i would arrive an hour early and park on the street and check in over the cb. My last time there , there was 14 of us on the street getting doors issued to us when 4 local cops came rolling up with lights flashing. End result : we all received 158$ fine for illegal parking and 3 points on our license..Didnt matter to them that we were being issued doors ..

all of our drivers park in other lots around there, because of this. I know it is BS but they will not do nothing about it.

That's just harsh on the PD's part, unless you're actually blocking traffic. After all, it's not like you're just there for giggles!!

I work on a road in Erlanger and we'll have 6 or 7 trucks parked out along the road and one or two in both receiving and shipping doors on days when everyone decides to hit at one time. Sometimes STUFF just happens... we're appointment based too, but one butthead and ruin the whole mix!

and what we are talking about happens between 12:00 to 12:30 am no traffic and the crappy parking lot at the place you are not aloud on the lot untill you are told what door over the cb radio. It is not like you are on a busy highway. It just boils down to easy money for the locals.

Yes ..You are correct about the appt. time..My appt was 12am and I was issued the ticket at 1150pm..I had a door issued but had to wait because they took all of our license's and walked to each truck and issued tickets..

I guess all McClane's have that same policy about parking off property to check in. I used to go to the one in Florida and it was the same thing. The local cops would do the exact same thing there about once a week. That was either in Winter Haven or Kissimmee,Fl, I don't remember which but it was in that area.
