    @57 model , @mdmgolfin , or @bryan21384 . Have any of yous delivered at coke in Atlanta Ga south metro location on mason rd before? Wondering if they are strict to appt or if they'll take ya early at all. Gotta be there at 17:00 tomorrow evening. Can't imagine I'll be super early. It's approx 765 miles from here in sedalia.

    And for future reference here at Sedalia Missouri. Grellner sales and service. It's a beer distributor and per all of you that have been here before and it was real tight and dada dada dada. They have reconstructed their receiving department. They have 4 receiving docks now. And you can park here overnight. You still got a back in off the street but there's a lot more room than there used to be when it was just that one dock down the skinny Lane beside the building.

    That seems kind of late for that location. I usually arrive within an hour of appointment and I’m empty in an hour. Take precautions with Atlanta rush hour.

    Yeah I just sort of kind of figured on hammering down and getting there as soon as I can get there you know cuz I know how Atlanta is and I hate traffic so. I mean I started my clock at like 8:45 this morning I figure drop and hook over here at Wright City I should have no problem making it to Mont Eagle by the end of the day. As long as I can start by 9 or 10 tomorrow morning then I ought to be in pretty good shape. I just don't want to get there and then say all you got to leave and come back cuz you know there ain't no where to park in Atlanta for crying out loud

    I looked at reviews for that place, some cat 2 weeks ago said they got there early and they turned him away. @bryan21384 left a review on there saying there’s places around to hideout, so maybe he’ll come along with a tip.

    I've gone there a few times. There's warehouses to park at across the street from Coke and you can just creep in there.i don't know if they'll take you early as I've never tried it. I've only had super early appointments. Screenshot_20220526-122730_Maps.jpg

    This pic shows the entrance you turn down to get to the hideout, and what I usually do is go all the way down, turn towards the guard shack, straight line back and go back like I am going to exit. If you get there early enough, you can just settle there like you're facing that guard shack. Other trucks sleep there out of the way. Other times, I have to turn like I'm going back out, then back into one of those parking rows. It's kind of a tough back, but it's doable. Nobody will bother you there. I'll send another pic to show the guard shack lanes so you'll have an idea.

    You could probably turn down Majestic off of Mason Rd to avoid having to do the backing. I can't remember if the turn is real tight but it seems like I've seen trucks come that way before.

    Okay I appreciate it. I won't be staying the night. I just figure I'll be there earlier than my appointment and they may turn me away. A lot of these Coke places won't take you but an hour early.
