    There is a drop yard in Atlanta on the west side of town. As well as a decent number of customers in the area with trailer pools.

    We do have customers in SC with trailer pools. There are 3 facilities in Gaffney that have trailer pools (one of them takes inbound freight). There is also another customer near Anderson that has a trailer pool (I happen to have a load out of that place right now). I also have done a drop and hook near Columbia, however we only had one trailer there.

    Look up a few posts dude. The centerpoint in Laurens shut down a year ago. We don't have trailers there anymore.

    Well whenever it closed. It's 100% not there anymore. A friend of mine lives about 20 miles away and told me. Looked at it last time I drove by, and the centerpoint was closed. It got outsourced and moved to somewhere in NC.

    Is there a drop point or trailer pool in Tulsa or Stillwater? I really don't wanna see JCW drive 2 hours PAST home just to drop in a secure yard down by OKC.
