Kroger - Atlanta, GA

I delivered to Gordon Food Service in Springfield, Oh and it took me 7 hours to get unloaded.

 

Ralphs in Compton, Ca. comes to mind.. Took a load of beef into there. When you back in, you have to deal with very tight quarters. As a rule, when backing between 2 trucks, the other drivers have to unhook. If that isnt enough to fluster you, you have to deal with a 10ft wall. This wall shows many battle scars of being hit. If your not careful, you will hit it. I got lucky and didnt tag it. I will post some pics of this place shortly. I am never going back there.

 

I'm here at Kroger Atlanta unloading again... second time in about a month or so. And once again a pleasant experience over all. The lumper is prepaid so no hassles with Comcheks. I got here at 6:30 for my 7 pm appointment, right in a door and being unloaded as we speak. Looks like I might be outta here before 8.

I give 'em 5 stars *****

 

They ain't that bad if you know the procedures. Never go to the end of the road and turn around. There's a pot hole on the otherside of the guardshack 8 ft long by a foot deep filled with water. There's an easy back way over to the SW Pilot from there. I'd have to show you, I forget the street name you turn on. Maybe the guard can help or GPS? Alot of drivers know it.

 

I'm debating on cruising the Peelot to see if there's a spot after I leave here. I gotta pick up at the airport in the morning and I'd rather not drive all the way up to the Petro.

Or I got kinfolk that live over on Hillcrest and Moreland Ave... but I forgot my pistol at home.

 

HAHAHAHA! AINT THAT THE TRUTH!!!!

 

I was thinking that the Kroger was in East Point, GA. Close to the ATL airport. They also take along time to unload, I dont think Ive ever been to the one over close to Bouldercrest. That whole area is a DUMP!!!

 

Glad I looked this thread up before I went here. Parked and walked up 30 minutes b efore appt time got a door 30 minutes after.

Luckily, they gave me a princess door in front of the fuel pumps. No issues backing into their tight docks.

I brought a pre loaded T-check with me and paid on the spot. Walked back to my truck, lit a cigarette and before I could finish it, they were done pulling their 12 skids off.

Wow! Good place!

 

Yea. It's real dark on that street too. They wanted me to put it in door 32. I tried 2 times. They had their company tractors in front of me. Finally they came out and realized it couldn't be done with their crap in the way. That place sucks.

 

The pilot now has regular security that runs around in a golf cart.Dont know If it helps any,or not?
I never got asked to buy dope,or a lizard.I feel soo dejected..Am I too ugly for Atl Lizards??
