Got here 6pm and got loaded and left by 10:30pm. They loaded me within 100lbs away from 80,000lbs so fuel before you get here. I then stopped at a cat scale and they over loaded me on my drives at 35,700. I came back at 10am and they held me hostage until 4pm until they finally told me they wouldn't take anything off but they will shift it back. They then only shifted it 6 inches and after using their scales I was still 1,000 over on my drives. They finally pushed it back more and I was able to finally leave at 5:30pm. I still need to weigh again but this place is definitely run by simpletons that hate their job.

Really slow. Sitting 3.5 hrs, still have a truck in front of me.
The loading area and tarp station are the same, so things only move as fast as the driver in front.
If you’re not tarping you’ll be ok.

I have pickup here twice once a load of plywood second time a load of lumber. From check in time until I was loaded and leaving 4 1/2 hrs to load plywood. Second time 1 hr total for a load of lumber. No overnight parking available. Southfork truck stop about 5 miles away on I-30. There’s only 1 dock to load plywood, three docks loading lumber. If your load # 372 it’s a lumber load, 335 Plywood.

Not too bad, only waited about an hour to get loaded and the employees were very nice.
I did wind up waiting alongside three other trucks for about two hours because some driver was taking his sweet time in the tarping shed though.

We’re all out here together doing the same job, and have the same deadlines.
Be considerate to one another, please

Loading lumber here isn’t bad. It’s kinda difficult to find your area for flatbeds but I had a few trucks in front on me and still got loaded and out in about 1 hour. I’m not sure how the ply wood works. But lumber is fairly quick and decent friendly people. Trucker friendly for sure.

As a truck driver, I was a little worried after reading other reviews regarding how long this place takes to load. However, this was not my experience - it was a little hard to figure out where to go, but once I found my way to the right loading area, the forklift operators were good and got me loaded and rolling quickly!!

Be sure to have a hard hat, safety vest and safety glasses on before going to the shipping office. Otherwise you’ll have to walk to the guard shack and get used Ppe. The lady in the lumber shipping office is quite rude she almost acts like you owe her something. Serious attitude problem. It was quick to load. They have a scale on site. No overnight parking is available. Nearest truck stop is about 5-10 miles away (north fork truck stop. I-30 exit 63 plenty of truck parking available.
