Checked in at 810am got call for dock door at 840am loaded bills in hand at 930am Overnight parking two porta potties nice staff 👍

First come, first serve loading. When you're planning your route, look at the Naturipe facility behind PWC. the driveway into Naturipe is a steep little drop, so be careful turning in. Only 3 loading docks, but they seem to load pretty quickly. This is a tight, small yard, so be careful. The staff that I dealt with were all very cordial. This is all from my experience at this facility alone.
