4/5
Arrived about 0300 on a Tuesday. Trucks and cars parked everywhere on Peachtree and Boxford, ended up double parking next to some other trucks on Peachtree facing west. Checked in on the tablet, put my phone number on my paperwork, and dropped the paperwork in the box past the tablet near the gate. Thankfully only had to wait about 20 minutes before I got the call to dock.
Very lucky that there was a block of 3 docks in a row wide open, so while it was a touch tricky for me to squeeze in next the the guy next to me? Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be from all the other reviews I've seen on here. After not being able to work for 7 months because I was medically grounded, I was dreading a nightmare trying to squeeze in with my load being 60 pounds shy of max gross. I hate hauling potatoes, if you are super heavy be ready to fight with your drives with how uneven the pavement is at the docks.
Watch for cars trying to zoom by, especially if it is someone who works here. They absolutely don't care, but that's LA for you. After living here a year and a half, and before that doing deliveries and pickups in the area for 3 years? It's the norm.
Unloading took about 40 minutes. Lumper took about 10 minutes, with coming out to get my code and then bring me the paperwork for everything.
Not as bad as I figured it would be. Only downside is ports potties are kinda nasty.
