Eb International — Local services in Hidalgo

Don't stack up on the narrow street in front of this receiver. If all drivers do, we'll be impeding traffic from the others businesses and roads. Also, drive down to the rcvr, turn left, , should see guard house, he will come out, he is gonna write info down ,you give him nothing unless he states otherwise. Follow trucks around main building, We all just formed a bullpen, if you will because it's all gravel and dirt and dust, mostly. Walk to building facing street, up ramp, form a line, sign clipboard when it's your turn. Receiver will give each driver a number on a square paper to place in your window. They will call each driver with their door. After empty, Driver may have a lumper fee. They'll tell you when you fetch your signed bills. There is a washout on site that may close at 5pm. They say they open EB INTERNATIONAL LLC at 0600, but, I was there before 0600 and had no idea because when you turn onto the street in front of this business, and you see a line of trucks , and you've never been there before,,you have no clue. And I did get out and asked other drivers. Need a different washout. Exit front EB INTERNATIONAL LLC , turn left, drive a short ways down, turn right and right again...wash out right there in gated lot. Guy's 1st name is Alex. I will give further details if asked. He washes the trlr and it does not smell. Very...

It’s a hit or miss forwarding company…Can be a 2 hours or all day to unload. Big dirt lot, plenty of room…just take your time and maneuver slowly. No reason to get in a hurry around here. They open the gate at around 06:00 give or take. Other reviews state overnight parking on Produce Road is ok. However this must of changed recently… I had a delivery here on 1/30/23… The night before at around 1:30am, about 10 trucks including myself, were parked along Produce Rd in front of EB International and were awakened by the Hidalgo police informing us overnight parking was no longer allowed according to new city ordinance. Police officer was nice and apologetic and recommended parking in a lot nearby. I chose to park in Amigos Cold Storage lot, which is caddy cornered to EB International, along with 3 other trucks that were already there. This was just a quick “get out of the street” option for me as I would only be there for 4-5 hours. However, it would be better to ask around about parking in their lots. With this new city ordinance, EB International needs to allow overnight parking inside their lot for trucks delivering to their facility. Its large enough and can accommodate up to 50...

Arrived at 06:15. Gate was opened around 06:30. We were the 2nd truck through the gate. Receiving Office was supposed to open at 07:00, but didn't open until around 08:00. We were assigned ID #2. This is in no way your order number, so no need to run over each other trying to be the first one in line. Your order is based on when YOUR Mexico truck counterpart arrives (this heavily based on border crossing wait times). We were the last truck called to dock at 16:30. Started to unload immediately. Unloading took around 30-45 minutes. $80 Lumper fee for everyone. They accept cash and company checks (even for washout). If your truck does not arrive by closing time, you will be unloaded into their cold storage warehouse. VERY dusty lot. A bunch of big potholes too.

There is a clean restroom for truckers to use. They have one snack and one soda machine (you need quarters.).

Though it was a long painful (HOT) wait, I am giving them 4 stars. These guys are forwarders and they can in no way control what happens at the border. Just...
