    Anyone else loaded here? I find that they NEVER load you early and you are there an average of 4-5 hours for each load.

    They do load 24 hours, which can be nice if you are running late.

    Any thoughts?

    What kind of thoughts ? You pretty much sum it up with your post. They take awhile to load. Oh well..........

    I was asking if anyone else had loaded there. I guess no one else has.

    I used to send trucks in there 6 times a week averaged 11 hours to load each time. they do pay detention $80 hour after 2 if I remember correctly. But yes they suck.

    I picked up at the one in Canby, OR. They are slow, too. Dropped my trailer and went over to the t/s. They had a yard jockey move the trailer into and out of the door. Went back next morning and all finished. It worked out for me b/c I was able to do some laundry and take care of my own stuff.

    I worked loading trucks at the Johnson Controls warehouse in El Paso. Talk about inefficiency at its best! We often be standing around for a half hour or more before we got started and were scrambling to finish before shift ended. I quit after a week.
