    Anyone know if we have a drop yard in Tampa Florida area? I am looking to get a friend to join Prime but he wants to see if we have a drop yard in the Tampa area?

    No terminal. There's a customer in Bradenton where they keep trailers.

    I used to haul orange juice out of Auburndale; I wasn't with Prime, but Prime trucks were always everywhere.

    Ive seen that drop yard, it's just a couple blocks away from Coca-Cola. Tiny, but it's secure and it's Prime's lol.

    It's tiny, secure, and is the property of one of our former drivers. He allows Prime to stash trailers there, and runs a trailer washout for us. If you ask him nice, he may even let you park a tractor there while you're on hometime.

    Also, if you ever go to that yard do not let any of your wheels go off the gravel, saw a guy do it, and the dirt was is too soft, the owner was not pleased about having to call a wrecker
