The service I received from the scale office staff (Katie and Susie) as well as the dock staff (Dwayne and others) was amazing. After a total day from Hell they calmed my nerves and took control of the situation. I cant thank them enough.

Overall experience:
Very friendly staff, well-organized process, simple and fast operation. Highly recommended.
Very friendly, very professional people, but their loading docks are terrible. There is not enough room to do a circle in front of the dock. Pull into the alley next to the docks with your tandems slid forward. Then carefully back into the open dock. Slide your tandems back and put your clip board (Which you got from the scale house coming onto the property.) in the back of the trailer. Weigh out before leaving and get your bills.
Easy Peazy.
Nice lady. I got lost inside the plant and had to call again. If you're here after hours, you gotta scale up on the receiving scale. Just call the number, she'll tell you what to do. Looks like they might have overnight parking.
Very nice people to work with ! Especially Anita that runs the scale! I showed up thinking i had a 630 appt . Turns out it was actually a 9am. She Let me take a 6am appt time that day because one of those trucks didn't end up coming! I was unloaded in 1 hour ! Definitely made my Friday!
Polluting Eagan neighborhood with toxic lead for 15 years and lost a 30 million dollar lawsuit for it. This company should be ashamed for poisoning the people in the neighborhood.
Overnight parking Available, I reached there Sunday 22.00, Receiving open 6 to 17.00 and Shipping 24 hours, Restroom Available, Receiving Appointment only. Took 45 minutes. Entrance for This plant Yankee Doodle rd
One of the easiest and smoothest places I've ever delivered to.
Pull into staging area, call the number on the sign, I was an hour early and they were ready for me immediately, pull through the gate, take the curve to the scale. The scale worker will direct you on exactly what to do so clearly that the words out of his mouth could form glass (Devante you're awesome by the way! One of the nicest people I've ever met at a shipper/receiver). BUT just incase, you'll be handed a clipboard, pull off scale, follow yellow line, pull FORWARD into one of 3 parking spaces in front of the Bay doors so you're set up for a straight-line back. Open trailer doors, place clipboard inside trailer, slide tandems to the rear. When the door opens, you're free to back into the door, unless directed otherwise. Simple. 10/10 would share my Dr Peppers again
If you’re getting loaded here make sure you have the fuel you going to need. They weigh you in and load accordingly. NO OVERNIGHT PARKING. You must call number on sign to check in when you arrive. At entrance receiving to left through gate. Shipping to right no gate!
Had a good time today. Easy in and easy out.
Devante and Ron are good guys. Anita is awesome but wasn't working today. I wanted to say hi to her. She's good people. Thank you Anita.
Not bad , if delivering stay on left and park in staging area and call on no. that posted on sign boards , can check in early but works by appts, overnight parking for around 20 trucks in staging area , entrance is from yankee doodle rd
Awesome place to deliver. C and John greet you and explain what to do and are both so nice . John said our appointment was at 2 but he still took us at 10 am. Unloaded fast. You all are awesome 💯💯💯💯💯
Attention Truckers: I had a delivery followed by a pick up here and I'll detail my experience as follows.
Receiving: When pulling on the property go towards the left and park in the lot. When I arrived in the morning time there was a line of trucks (shipping side) blocking the main entrance, you might find yourself waiting on the street if this happens to you. Anyway, call the # displayed on the sign and give them your load info. When they're ready they'll open the gate so you can drive on the scale and check in with the receiver. The receiver will than tell you to park your truck across from the receiving dock with your truck facing north which will set you up for a straight line back when it's your turn. Slide tandems back, put BOL's in the trailer, and a guy will come to your truck when he wants to unload you. Note that you will be backing up so that your truck + trailer is inside the building. After your done you drive back to the same scales to check out at receiving.
Shipping: Coming onto the property make a right and wait in line behind the other trucks. Call the # on the sign to check in. When It's your turn they will have you drive on the scales and walk inside the scale building to finish check in process and give you instructions on what will happen when getting loaded. Next you'll take a dock door by blind-side backing into it, this is the only way so go slow, use GOAL and ask for help if needed. Make sure tandems back and chock wheels, they WILL check. Next go inside and see the loader and follow their instructions. They had me put down some light weight mats and hammer in 2 nails on boards to secure the load, very easy. I recommend bringing your own mask on the dock as there is a faint fume in the air. After getting loaded call the scale building and they'll have you drive on the scale to get weighed and checked out. Note that the scale will weight steers, drives, trailer and shipping will give you a printout, no need for a truck stop CAT scale.
Overall this place is cramped, dirty, and has various debris + objects scattered throughout the property. The main entrance can get easily blocked by a driver waiting for shipping so be aware of that. Receiving side is what takes up the bulk of my time as they take very long. Inside the shipping building not everyone will be accustomed to the fumes in the air, plus some truckers don't like manual labor regardless of how easy it may be.
But the good news is I didn't encounter a lumper fee. There a porta pottie in receiving and rest room in scale building shipping side. Getting loaded at shipping was less than 30 min. Customer service is good throughout the property. These people will give you detailed instructions as to how to navigate this facility and steps you take while your here, so don't be afraid to ask questions cause they are nice and easy to work with. To find nearest truck stops, use your trucker path app.
When you arrive at this place, stay to the left, you need to stand in the parking lot and check in by phone number, then drive to the scales and get instructions. Do not hope that you will be accepted before the appointment. So there is no point in rushing here. But if you arrive in time, everything will go smoothly and smoothly.
Park check inn
Wait to get a call
Got here 4 hours early still had to wait but got called before appointment time security check in was nice and understandable.
I enjoyed loading here. The guy in the shipping office was a breath of fresh air compared to my experiences at most other places! Loader was also pleasent to work with. They do wear face respiratory mask, so that can make it a bit difficult to hear them. They have a tri axle scale and O/N parking. And 19 minutes to load. In and out in less than 30 minutes altogether! I would certainly load here again
By appt only (1-2 hours before it’s ok) Overnight parking, restroom, scale in and out. Fast unloading. Do not get out from truck smell very bad for your health.
HARZARD FOR DRIVERS. They don’t provide safe masks and we can get sick because the fumes inside. If you pay attention also outside employees use masks. Why put truckers health in risky? Where is the authorities to fiscalize this??
Pull in go left straight back to scale. Scale in then go to shipping. You have to help with loading process. Lay down mats and brace load. Heavy solid lead. Was in and out in about an hour.
For truck drivers: Easy way to come here is take the ex97A&B & turn right to Yankee Doodle rd. Go straight 2.3 mile & turn left to Gopher ( exactly front of the white big water tower "Eagan" on your right). Delivery must keep left to parking lot, call to scale for instructions. Overnight parking for 20 trucks
