Tyson Truck Gate — Local services in Goodlettsville

No staging on facility but if you're a drop and hook a couple spaces on the side road just before you get all the way to the Tyson to sit at. I've had multiple drop and hooks at this location to tell you this consistently: if your load is still in the door you are screwed and are on the yard dogs personal schedule. The guard shack can't get them to pull it nor will asking a yard dog nicely help your case. I have waited anywhere between 20 minutes all the way to 3 and a half hours for a yard dog to pull it from the door and seal it up. Mind you that one time the load had no possible way of making it on time since it was sitting in the door so long past DDT. Must wear safety vest, only portajohns...

Try to stay away from this Tyson shipper/receiver. It takes 12 hours to load the trailer! No respect to truck drivers and to their time. Why you make appointments 5pm if load not ready by this time. ? 🤣 Do not even try to reach the shipper and the receiver over phone, they just do not pick up 👍🏼 The security guys are friendly but have no idea where your trailer is and what’s its status They ask you to call them back after 3 hours to check status. But better ask them if you can go your self to find your trailers. You have to wait for several hours and then just walk around the premises to find your trailer (advice: wait for 3-4 hours and then go search it, I did after 6.5 hours...

The early bird doesn’t get the worm here! I arrived at 6:54am for my 7am delivery. Did the check in proceedings(tandems back etc.) Made the left and unhooked where I was told and given location options to bobtail to and wait. Before leaving I asked when I should call to check on status of my trailer which I think is dumb. Y’all should call me. Anyway, I was told call after 4hrs! …10hrs later my trailer still hasn’t been worked in and unloaded. Both my company and I had to call up and make a fuss in order to get something done. It’s 5pm now and the supervisor says he pulling my trailer now to be unloaded and it’ll be done in the next 1 1/2 hr. So we’ll see smh....
