    With a live load in a dryvan, I could always count on at least 2 hours over allotted time each and every time. The one down in Brookeville Fl was the absolute worst, 6 hours over, and cost me a nice load north because I couldn't make pickup due to them.:biggrin_25510:

    I have never gotten out of a DC in under 3-1/2 to 4 hours.
    Most of the time it is in the 4 to 5 hour time frame..

    Same here, and even if I'm going to a general merch DC and it's not a drop, I've always been out 2 hours after appt.

    It's been a year, but I used to go to Harrisonville often. They were nice and efficient. I waited in the truck. Never over 2 hours. Sorry to hear it's not that good any more.

    I must be lucky. I've made numerous Wal-mart runs up to this point and none of them have ever been a live unload, always drop & hook. Fine by me; I usually HATE unloading at most grocery warehouses.

    I'm from the Bronx, and I ride in cabs without partitions, my bank doesn't have the partitions, I go to some bodegas in some of the worst neighborhoods, that aren't hidden behind as much plexiglass, yet every WallyWorld DC I've delivered to has plexi-glass partitions, with all kinds of stupid, childish rules taped to them.
    This and their time stamp shenanigans, are the reasons why I'll collect unemployment and welfare before I accept another one of their loads.

    A little heads-up to anyone that may end up at the one in Brundidge,Al. have your lumper fee ready BEFORE you get to the window to check in, If you don't they won't stamp your time in.
