    Can any of you guys help me out with some info on King Soopers in Denver @ 10251 E. 51st street? I have been to the one in Aurora, and the meat plant, but I don't think I have been to this location. If I have its been years. I was looking on google maps and it looks like there is parking by the guard shack is that correct? Was wondering how early do they allow you to check in before your appointment. Also if this is the one that you guys complain about that takes a long time to unload? Any help will be appreciated. I tried to call the number on my qualcomm because it didn't come with an appointment time. That number said to call another number and that number wasn't even in service. Had to go back to google maps to find a number. Finally found one and got a hold of somebody who told me my appointment time, but then she connected me to somebody else who told me to call another number that didn't answer. Don't have to be there till Monday morning. So any helpful info that will make my arrival and departure smooth. Will be a blessing thanks.

    It is actually 51st Ave. if you take the Havanna exit and make a right go to 51st and make a left. They are at the end of the road on the right. They do have plenty of overnight parking. I've been in there a few times and was unloaded in about 2 hrs. But I guess it probably depends on what your bringing in on how long they take. Hope this helps.

    I think it is no more then 12 or 10 hours early. You can park their as long as you are not unloaded. When you are empty you can park on the street. Reflective vest is needed. You can get one from the guard shack if you don't have one. Meat seems to take the longest but it is a hit or miss on how fast they unload you. I just always get in and check in early then go to sleep. Some time they will get you in early and sometimes they will call you just before your appointment time.

    Thanks Daniel is Pilgrims Pride Chicken from Dequeen. I'm sure some of you guys have probably had that load. That's what I plan on doing is heading over there as soon as the driver brings the load to Amarillo. Get there and try to get a break in before I head up to Greeley to pick up load going to NC.

    P.S You guys don't have any problem with your E logs going to the drive line when you go from staging area to the docks do you?

    Nope, speed limit on site is 5 mph I think and they have speed bumps. Also less then 1 mile all the way to the back docks.

    Ya we get that dequeen run a lot out of their.

    Swift had some 57s don't know about 58.
    Must have been the Secondary road thing.

    Place I picked up was like 1ml from US20. So not sure.
    My weight was good so they didn't bother me at the ID Scales.

    Guess I got really lucky with 80 thru WY also. There was a light Trailer Advisory for high winds 50+, but I doubt they were even close to that.
    Also I80 was 95% dry.
    Stopped in Laramie at the Petro last night.....it was pretty cold .(-2)

    And, once this company finds the missing people it needs to fill the voids I am sure it will be an even better place to work. But it is going to take some time and we have to be patient. And, yes I know patience is a truckers strong area. Ha Ha.
