    I've been there a few times to pick up trailers. I think we use them for the real hard to clean chemicals. Never dealt with the staff though. It does get crowded.

    Well, Conely, GA here goes nothing. 7 hour wait on my tank and one hose. Tanks clean hose never got done. I questioned it, I get attitude in return. Ok, let's play hardball. Go in, tell black rambo to get my paper work. Read it....exactly. Then they was my hose with just water....lol still has product in it. Then my wash slip has a different company, different last contained....to be continued in the morning.

    Picked up a tank there and verified the seals, got to the shipper and 2 of the numbers for the trailer on the wash ticket had been transposed. I suppose my bad for not thouroughly checking paperwork. Only cost me 2 hours to get it straightened out.

    HTI in Oakland does a really good job on cleaning. We have to take all Hazmat there. Tough to get into too but the staff is friendly and man they clean your hoses and pump so well you could drink out of them.

    I guess I need to eat some crow. I previously posted that Quala = bad. Recently got to Quala in savannah and was pleasantly surprised. State of the art with huge drivers lounge, shower and laundry. Free popcorn and hot dogs.

    You stay overnight there? That's a scary neighborhood. Been there once and was glad I loaded the next day and could get the hell out.

    It's not the best neighborhood I agree but I've slept there a few times.

    I have noticed whenever I pull into tank wash with 3065 placards on, I never have to wait and never any heel charge for some reason.
