That’s funny another guy in his truck the radio wouldn’t work at all. It stayed on but nothing would come through speakers.

I've been to that place more times than I can remember. God help you if you don't have an early morning appointment. The entrance to receiving and the docks are both on King. When you pull off the highway and get to King, pull over as far to the right as you can and check in. There is a parking lot further down the road on the left where you can turn around so you don't have to blind side in the dock. It's tight, be careful. It'll look like you aren't supposed to be in that lot, but trust me. I've done it a million times. Kinda miss that place in a weird way. Super nice people, very tight maneuvering.MIT Thanks this.

If you show up when they first open, you're good. Best time of day possible, before other drivers get there and muck the place up. I'm not sure where you'd stay if you spent the night. Not a safe neighborhood, by the way.

I saw 2 other sets of docks one across street and 2 docks on 38th? Ever any luck in getting those or is it those 3 off of King and nothing else?
Finally hometime weekend I guess nothing is free in this world a nice straight back would have been nice. -
I've delivered to both sets of docks. The ones on 38th and the ones on King. Either way you can use the parking lots in front of each dock for set up. You'll be backing across the street blind so take it slow.
I usually check in mid block between 33rd St and 38th St on King Street and they will tell you which docks.
You can stay the night if you back up to dock so the trailer can't be entered from outside. Not sure if staying the night increases your chances of getting unloaded quicker or not, have never stayed there.Last edited: Apr 17, 2019
Farmer54 Thanks this. -
Not staying there, maybe next time. Want to get a feel for the place in the dayligtht. Just going to wake up early and get down there by 6am. Beat the morning rush.
Trainer called tonight out of the blue. Actually made my day. Hearing his voice live was a change of pace, god knows it’s still rattling around in my head when I do something stupid.JOHNQPUBLIC Thanks this. -
I have never once been to the docks on 38th. And I've been there a dozen times or more. And the parking lot across from the King St docks has a gate which is almost always closed. Gonna have to do this one the old fashioned way.MIT Thanks this.

I'm with SJ, not sure I'd stay there overnight anyway. Not saying I never would but for first instinct is not to.
-
They open the gate if you have to use that dock. It was a Saturday morning delivery so maybe that's why they did it there.
