    2000 mile run? Is that how many miles you got paid for? It's actually 2800+ miles.

    That place is an adventure. The dirt lot they make you park then walk down the alley to the phone on the wall. Then when they call you to dock....you find out that the other truck is still at the dock. We drove around waiting for the dock to be opened. After 5 minutes of driving around, we decided to park down the block. Wait another 20 minutes. They called again to tell me that the dock is open. Dock is open but several other trucks are trying to dock in a tight space. Uncontrolled chaos.

    The good thing was that the employees are really nice & we were loaded fast. We had an appointment.

    Best part about the trip was the Valley Truck Stop. Awesome Mexican food sold there. Highly recommend it.

    The checkin people at taylor suck bunch of aholes. been hauling outa there for 4 years and they piss me off more each time. last monday got there in evening 6pm had to park in back lot check inn guy was aruguing with me about appointment times we have never had one even asked other o/os who hual for same buyer said they say thing. And buyer said same thing they dont have appointment time for them there never have. They never called me so i call back inn next morn a 7am and they say i wasnt in lot so they didnt give me a door. Funny they have enough balls to drive over to lot without some sort of protection like armed guards. by the way i have never seen them in there check inn lot. Buyer calls them and they tell them that i never checked inn bunch of lying jerks like i told buyer funny thing they never asked me for my info in the morning no po number nothing they even recited my ph number back to me they did give me a door a hour later. (i texted the buyer right after i checked inn monday letting him know i was there) I pickup same stuff every week and if it aint me its one of the other o/os i know getting it and we all hate taylor farms with a passion. wish we was getting the stuff at di arriggo or dole was alot easier then.

    As big as Taylor Farms is, I don't get why they don't have a better system in place to make things organized.

    We have picked up from and delivered to other Taylor Farm locations. It's the same at all of them.

    I have the misfortune of being stuck at this disorganized place as we speak. The "vato" at the shipping office is pretty rude behind his glass window. Never knew the day would come where I sell my soul for a few miles. 2839 ld miles
