I'll give more stars after I see how it goes in unloading. This is Lineage yall already know. To me, thier cool. Thing with them they all different. Don't be late, or you will get a hefty fee. You want early they will hit you with a fee also. Early fee if you like if not be on time. PUT THIS IN CAPS. IF YOUR COMING FROM THE EAST GO TO THE LIGHT MAKE A RIGHT GRASKAMP. THE ADDRESS THE GPS SENDING YOU TO IS THIER PARKING FOR CARS NO ACCESS SAME WITH COMING FROM WEST MAKE A LEFT AT LIGHT GRASKEMP AT THAT LIGHT IF YOU LOOK UP TO YOUR LEFT, YOU WILL SEE THE SIGN ON TOP OF BUILDING LOOKING AT YOU LIT UP LINEAGE. THAT THE DRY VAN ONE. It's up in the right corner. Do not go through the first drive way it's a little tight. There is another entrance a little ways down.

Ā Ā Ā Read moreI don't yet have an opinion on the facility or staff, so I'll give an extra star for now. However, just because of the struggle of finding the place, I wanted to give 3 stars. I had misjudged from the other, rather vague, reviews here, and ended up 15 minutes late when I should have been 30 minutes early. I stayed at the Petro, and both my trucker GPS and Google Maps showed only two possible routes. Both of which were wrong. First I tried taking the 3rd street off Lorenzo, but that was CARS only, so I had to go about 15 minutes around in a circle to try again. The other suggested route took me past the Petro to a dead end that barely had enough room to turn around. Even Google Maps didn't know there wasn't a road there.
Finally, I took the second left (the lights just past the Petro labeled B) and only then saw a sign that said all trucks turn left here.
TLDR: Take the left at the lights just past the Petro turn. There's a sign with a big B on it. Then take a right onto Design Rd (I did not see a street sign labeling this road, btw). Then it's at the end of the road on your left.
I will say that they got me a dock immediately, and thankfully they aren't charging me that $100 late fee since I was only 15 minutes past...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreScheduled to pick up load 2000. Arrived 1919. Loaded and out at 0120. I know drivers get mad at the long loading times but in my opinion, why simmer, sit in a rage cloud or take it personally when we just donāt know the why. There may be uncontrollable issues that we arenāt aware of. Iām sure they want their product out and on the way as bad as we do. My clock ran out while I was there but they kindly allowed me to park across from the docks until I could get going again. On arrival, check in at the office with your pick up number. Mine started with 319. They will call you when they have a door. I was told to back in with doors closed and tandems all the way back. There is a truck stop less than a mile away. Itās huge compared to most of the truck parking Iāve seen around Chicago. Very clean and safe. Thereās a Public Safety building right behind it with fire and police.š¬ ...
