    Used to deliver cardboard there when I worked for another company. Everyone was always friendly, probably the fastest live unload of any chicken plants we went to, including places that were drop and hooks. I didn't care for the runs because of the low miles and slightly picky delivery hours, but thats not exactly their fault.

    I know this is an old thread but dude this information was invaluable. You’re absolutely right you get in there, hop on the scale, and good luck. Nothing anywhere tells you where you need to be. I picked up a hopper load of chicken meal and it was even a bigger nightmare trying to find that office. But, as you said, at least everyone was nice. It’s worse when it’s a jacked up place like that and everyone is a terd burglar. Anywho, good info, helpful map, 2 thumbs up. Thanks again.
