    If you are heading to Anniston, channel 35, they start receiving at 7 central time, knock off at 3, they have overnight parking, end dumps park with their trailer closest to the road, dry vans park on the opposite side. Start the line closest to the driveway and go to the end from there, that’s how they keep order of the trucks. Jose will ask for truck number, what the load is, your company, and where you’re coming from, he’ll then tell you to put it on the scale, wait in the truck until he tells you to bring in your paperwork, he’s in the office to your right, he’ll give you a material slip, go back and wait for him to tell you to clear the scale. Pull up to the stop sign and wait for them to direct you where to dump, they’re on a golf cart. Empty out, bare left and around the back of the blue conveyor and that is the sweep out area. Once you’re swept out proceed back toward the scale, stay tight to the jersey barrier on your left and do not get on the scale until instructed, wait until Jose says to come get your paperwork, then you’re good to go.

    If that’s not where you’re headed, at least you’ll have this as reference for when you do, any end dump questions feel free to ask, been doing it close to 10 years now. Don’t get in a hurry.

    You need prior experience to get right into the tank division. Otherwise, operate 6 months and you can ask to switch over.
    I’ve done end dump before so I feel more comfortable in this division for the moment.

    We’re all owner ops, no company drivers or lease ops. Just like any company, you’re going to have helpful people and people with good intentions.

    I just need a little help with the Transflo app, i.e inputting arrived/loaded/empty calls. Basically navigating the pages.
     
    NightWind Thanks this.

    @Jaguar115
    Cemex in Demopolis is out by the state docks. Dunno which way you are coming in but going west on US 80 past Walmart on the left to the last light, there is a Chevron on the corner at that light going turn right go thru next light stay right at the forks and Cemex is on the left. Plenty of room to park.
