    What a great place. First, you check in with the guard, and then park. Walk to the shipping area, he gives you a door. Gets you right in, and they start loading immediately. They come to your truck, hands you a slip of paper with their number and directs you to their scale, where they proceed to axle you out. Grab your paperwork and if you're tired, park right there in their lot and take a break. Very clean facility and very nice people. Just make sure you're pre-cooled to at least -10 before going in.

    Too bad the joke of an Edy's Grand shipper in Jessup MD isn't run that way.

    The lids will fly off. It says on my bills "use southern low altitude route only".

    Difference in pressure affects the products. The air is thinner in the higher mountains and if just ruins things. Just like baking in the mountains you need to bake the cake or what ever longer.. Read the directions..
