Pueblo D.C. is all Swifties -
Not surprising, seeing as how their Pueblo yard is a stones throw from the Target DC there.
I never had to do a live unload there, it was always drop the trailer, grab an empty and go! I don't think Knight actually had that many runs going into that DC though. -
I unloaded at a Target DC near Denton, Texas on Monday and was only there a couple hours.
After that my company made me sit till Wednesday for my next load, which loads on Thursday down in Stephenville. -
As long as they aren't understaffed Target DCs have become better overall in the past year, Its walmart that has once again become a needless nightmare. -
I've delivered to a bunch of them and pretty much every one in CA and the only one I ever had a problem with was Shafter. Always took a minimum of 6-7 hours for usually only about 1/3 of a load. Have seen other drivers there wait 12-14 hours...

I used to lump loads at the Target in Woodland Ca,sometimes it would take 12 hours to unload a truck,the Procter and Gamble loads with a lot of items where the worst,we had to lable every box.

This is why I will never deliver to Amazon again, my longest unload time was there, pulling off 12 pallets and taking 8 hours as they had to count everything. Sign the bills as 'subject to count' and let the driver go. It's not like he can do anything other than give you the phone number to claims .
-StevenGearjammin' Penguin, TheLoadOut and DannyB Thank this. -
This is why I leave myself on duty and get my fm involved. Money for my time has to come from somewhere. Especially when I'm 15 miles away and start my clock. Can't fall back to sleep once I'm up for at least 16 hrs. Too bad. So sad
