    It's not too bad at all, it took about 2 hours to load. You'll have to pull on the scale and get an empty weight first then call them with your pickup number. It'll be a sign with their phone number. Hang on to the ticket because you'll need to scan it to get your loaded weight. If you can get there first thing, it'll probably be better. They can get kind of busy. There's plenty of space for overnight parking there. The directions the company gives are way too complicated. It's better to get of at exit 216, I think that's route 25. Follow it east, then make a right on 100 and the facility is about a ½ mile to the left. I took 35,000 lb load out of there, and it was majorly front loaded. It wasn't overweight, but it was unbalanced..I had to climb in the trailer to get the individual boxes of taters off the top of the stacked pallets. They'd have a pallet made, then stack 1 box by itself on top so I'd examine that load just in case.....I know that was a mouthful, lol but overall I'd say it was easy. I'd have no problem loading there again.

    It seems like you've brought taters back from Idaho before. Is that what yall usually bring back when you go to Ogden?

    Yea we have gone to several different places in idaho for taters. Have also picked up onions in ogden. Picked up a backhaul somewhere in ogden once but i don't remember what that product was. We used to always bring candy back automatically just like ya do when ya go to palmyra but they've lost the back hauls outta ogden dc for whatever reason. Sometimes ya get lucky an there's a load there but it's rare. Ya would think that with as much as we do with hershey's that they could do some sales an schmoozing with someone to get us back to bringing loads outta there again.

    Right and the fact that we have the teams to do it would be ideal. Hell many solos could get there with ease. Perhaps those schmoozing skills need a touch up lol

    Yea i tell ya we used to run a loop. Edwardsville to ogden to palmyra an back to edwardsville. I'd love to get stuck on that continually. It's like 4100 to 4200 miles a round. As a team we could run a round an a half a week easy. That'd be sweet.
