Chicago sucks!!!!! I was there yesterday. 42nd and Ashland.

I suggested they change it to 2900 w 167th... which takes you to the road (Richmond mentioned by @Finfn1372) that becomes the entrance yo the Yard.
I know this is just my personal pet peeve, again, but Garbage In Garbage Out... if we had better data (addresses) then we as Drivers could avoid getting into, and hopefully safely getting out of, difficult situations.
Just my 2 cents worth.Silverdriver, RebelChick and JohnBoy Thank this. -

So today was a freaking waste of a day... waited around for a load... finally got one going to California... awesome...
Rolled up with a Reefer... “is that a roll door?” ... yes... “sorry, we don’t accept roll doors only swing”.... UGH ... (yes, both Abilene AND Coyote got feedback on that)
Return to the Yard... only two 54xx trailers... one loaded, one with a flat... run it down to the trailer shop... ok, we will get on it... which they did... but an hour into it they said, we can’t let this unit leave... we found too many issues as we changed the tire... (great)
So they say there are some empties down at Sabra... so I go there... guard says “no empties here”.... call back in... yup, there should be three... so I go looking... found it...
Roll to Nabisco... finally... I thought it was clean... I still think it was clean... nope... dust the floor (I exaggerate a bit).... so I haul my fat hiney up into the trailer... sweep up the dust and a few wood chips...
Now I have to wait 3-4 hours to get a live load...
I will probably feel better after I get halfway to California but at this moment... I will never return to nabisco... we pay people by the hour for this stuff... or drop a trailer and go back to the Yard for the next job...
8+ hours for 33 miles... ya, not happy.
(Ya, I’ll get something for my time but I would much rather be OTR so both driver and company are making some money.)
