What clients say about American Colloid in Aladdin (WY)
Fast load every time I pick up. Ya'll are top notch! Downside... the smallest amount of rain turns the clay ground into a nightmare lol. Remind me not to walk my dogs after the ever so slightest amount of precipitation. Lol.
It’s a plant boys. Slow and easy.
212W to Haul Rd, make a left.
East building turn left, west building turn right from the guard shack, follow signs!
It is nicely marked for a directions!!!
Safety gear is a must, boots, hard hats, safety glasses.
Go to the shipping office and well, you know the drill!!!
Excellent place, awesome people, fast loading!!!
The folks at this facility are top notch! I have loaded here a number of times in the past few years and my experience has always been the same. 5 Star service, interacting with friendly, helpful and professional people.
This time I was 2 days early and planning on doing my 34 there before being loaded. I took a chance and checked to see if there was a chance of being loaded before my appt on Wednesday. Michelle said yes, give her a couple of hours and that Dan would be able to load me. They are always great at this facility and have you loaded in an hour or so. They have a scale on sight which is convenient but I have never had to have a load reworked. The weights are always spot on. Thanks for the great experience!
Keep up the great work American Colloid team in Colony WY!
Easy to find. Once you pull in the driveway signs direct you where to go and what you need to do. Need a 503….. pick up number. Check in at kiosk. I was the only one there so no pager, just back in the door. Was about 30 minutes in the dock before they started loading, then about 15 minutes to load.
692 address could teach the industry how to do efficient logistics. 2 docks, 5th in line, unloaded and gone in 1 hr 15 minutes. Place is run like a well oiled machine and the woman checking you in is a gem.
FCFS with plenty of over night parking. My pick up was for 692 and i was the 4th truck. Meaning there were two in the dock and one waiting ahead of me. In and out in about an hour. They have a new name but basically they're the furthest west plant on the south side of us212
692 Facility, great worker*, has a scale and plenty of room maneuver... 2 down sides to this place. 1st... FCFS with alot of freight shipping out means a long line of trucks, depending on how long the line, is how long you'll be here. Park in line walk up and check in. If you drive up to check in and 5 trucks pull on line while your in office , doesn't matter, end of the line... I arrived at noon on a Fri, 6th in line 2 in docks. Only 1 guy loading and checking you out, was out 3 hrs 30 min. 2nd... it's a mud hole after rain or snow. Probably a dust bowl when dry. ***DO NOT WASH TRUCK BEFORE COMING HERE***
Ridiculously rough tracks immediately as you turn in to the facility. Going to wait a long time to get loaded. I bid this at $4000.00...that was a mistake don't haul for less than $6500.00.
One dock for flat , one for dry van. Be prepared to wait abnormal amount of time , since flats are all tarping inside the dock . Company should make tarping area. Dry van same amount of time to wait as flat. Yuck
Staff was extremely rude. When I asked which pickup number they needed as I had three different numbers the guy at the window said “I should know my number” and proceeded to slam the window in my face.
By this point I had already been in line waiting for 5 hours to be loaded and they allowed local drivers to cut in front of OTR trucks in line and make us wait longer the whole time. As well they constantly try to load you over gross and attempt to state that you agreed to that amount.
Every time I have came to American Colloid it is the same experience every time. Definitely would recommend denying any loads your dispatch or load boards have coming out of this place.
Complete waste of time and complete waste of your clocks.
Second time here and again the same problem. They will gonna load you fast but you will be overweight on your axels!!! They don't know how to load the truck!
slightly hard to find because there are 3 plants/companies in a row. but for collioid you want the western most entrance off of 212. bypass the scale and take a right to the building up on the hill with the yellow handrails. I loaded a dry van out of there, they're friendly and fast.
