    I can tell you this, the people that are in the "offices" within the cooler are less than nice, to put it mildly. other than that if you don't mind the smell of Jersey, you'll be ok
     
    Logear Thanks this.

    Gee it sounds just like there other locations ,go figure. I only got two pallets of blueberries. I called them and they said first come first serve so screw the noon appt I be there at 5am and hope for the best after all I am a driver I have absolutly nothing at all else to do but store thier product. 6 hours at wallmaart in gordonsvillle VA today because the receiver could not count, They left 240 cases of berries on my truck and handed me signed bills. When questioned she insisted that they got all thiers, After a chat with her supervision they collected thier product thanked me for the help and hopefully are sending that reciever to the unemployment line. Hey I got C&S in NJ tomorrow can't wait.

    C and S stands for Come and stay. They have no respect for your time. I hate delivering to them.

    You all hit it right sleezey, slow, 60 bucks for two pallets arrived a 5am got in the gate at 7am got turned around with a beeper in hand and told to park on the street and wait. finally got in the gate at 11:30 jumped thru hoops for a door then a lumper then wait for a door for another hour then 2 hrs to unload then see 4 different people to get all the paperwork. WTF I will not go there again. C&S in NE Maryland i thought was bad it is not nearly as bad as this place,at least they got a ts across the road.

    Is this C and S the same as the one in Westfield ,Mass.
    The one in Westfield, Mass. very very trucker friendly. Polite employees, large over night lot to park in for your break. And they let you eat in thier employee dinning room / grill.

    C&S is like the JB Hunt of the grocery industry. Some locations are union, some are not. So it varies. The non-union places seem to be better than the union joints. However there's nothing like the Jersey attitude.
