    I just delivered groceries to PFG Tom Lester Co. in Lebanon, TN.

    It cost only $40 to lump and three lumpers had my full trailer empty in 15 minutes and I was off the lot in 45 minutes.

    Everyone was courteous and carried smiles. This is the way it should be!

    Good job PFG!

    I delivered there last week also, and agree that they work very fast and are very friendly. Just wish all receivers could be like that.

    Is this the one right up from the Pilot? Only thing I can remember is the backing was kind of tight trying to get into the dock.

    I deliver in there for Solo Cup quite often. My only complaint is the fence is to close to docks. Very friendly people. The Henry Dock Works guys do bust their ### to unload you quickly.

    This is one place you don't follow the GPS into. It will take you beside the Pilot back to a lot that belongs to someone else. You'll look across the fence at PFG, lol. Don't ask me how I know that?? :)

    PFG is one exit east of the Pilot. Get off the exit and head south by that old truck stop there. I forget the name of that truck stop?? I live a couple hours from there and have never stopped there.

    Anyways turn right just past that truck stop and PFG is back there. You go past it and curl around the fence to the guard shack.

    CondoCruiser if you dont mind me correcting you. They have changed how to get in there. You no longer turn on Maddox-Simpson by the Phillips 66. They have closed that part of the road. You go to very next road past that on the right. You wont know Maddox-Simpson is closed till you make that turn and get to the railroad tracks.

    I figure if I can help some one learn from my mistake and not do what I had to. Back out all the way out into the main highway at 3am because no signs were up telling you nothing. Im in there every Monday. And never knew that was coming.
