Elite Sides - Carson, CA

Delivered a load of plywood here last week, and this place warrants a post.

Appointment time: 0600-1130

I arrive: 1015

They clear me a "dock": 1100

There was no dock. They had a crude pallet jack, a chain, and a forklift. They got the pallet jack under the wood stack, chained it to the forklift, then dragged the stack to the end of the trailer. Then they removed the jack and forked the stack over to the plywood stacking area. Each repetition of this process took approximately 5 minutes due to the two guys doing the unloading joking around. This might have bothered me if I was low on hours, or in a hurry, but as I was not I joined right in - these guys were hilarious.

Their yard was on a T intersection, and to back into their unloading lane I had to turn into the opposing street, open the doors, and back in across the intersection. Not nearly the hardest one to get into, but kinda weird anyway.

Overall impression: Not bad, but get there early if you want to get out faster.
