Shippers & Receivers - Good or Bad Load O' Freight That Just Can't Wait. Had a good or bad experience with a shipper or receiver? Discuss grocery warehouses, lumpers, and anything dealing with pickups or deliveries here. Does that shipper let you park and sleep? Does the receiver FORCE you to get a lumper? Trucker Directions

"Do-It-Best" Medina, OH

I have run across a few good shippers through the years, but this is one that I ran into lately that really stuck out in my mind. It is "Do-It-Best" warehouse in Medina, OH.

I thought it was going to be a horrible experience when I walked in b/c I didn't see any forklifts - just pallets and pallet jacks. I said to myself, "here we go." The first question was, "what time is your appointment." It was 5:45am and I had a 10:00am appointment. "I said, 10:00am according to my company. I had 44,000 lbs of saltpellets. "Back it into either one of the 2 doors that you can find on that side of the building," said the receiver. "Yes, sir." Heck, I barely had the brakes set and wheel chocked when the forklift hit. I got back in the cab to fill out ppwk and 10 minutes later there was a knock on the door. "Here's your paperwork, sir - I'll kick the chock out for you !!!" Doesn't get any better than that. BTW, the warehouse was all WHITE AND BLACK AMERICANS - NO ILLEGALS !!!!!! That really stuck out in this day and age. I am NOT rascist, but I am patriotic and I don't believe in illegals taking American jobs away.
