    Just wanted to say that Ralph's in Compton, Ca. has the tightest docks Ive seen yet. Saw some tight ones in Seattle, but this place takes the cake!
    I was assigned door #245 if I remember right. One of ours on my right and some random truck on the left. I tried for about 90 seconds getting in, even hitting the concrete wall with my right rear drive tire. Finally I pulled forward and gave up. Thats when I saw driver of random truck walking towards his truck, I asked if he would disconnect from his trailer and move thinking I was about to get told what to do with myself. Driver says no problem, we do that everyday at this reciever.
    Once he pulled out from under his trailer, I had no issue at all getting in. He did the same a little later when I was ready to pull out after unload and both trucks were still on my left and right.
    Just wanted ro put this info out there for our drivers who have never been there.

    That's the same place that gave me my paperwork when it was time to go, I didn't check it. They didn't put the lumper receipt in and I got to pay for them to unload the freight the following week.

    You know the more I thought about it... That would actually be awesome... You could sleep up there and have all the rear bunk storage.

    You're telling me...you don't want a bloody ham load...so you can park at an angle...and recreate the Carrie prom scene?

    I'd ask why don't they cork these loads so they don't leak but I'm sure Blue Beacon would #### kittens at a trailer full of blood...

    I'm sure I'm attracting bears...
