Receiving on w 42nd st Shipping on w 42nd pl Pretty quick unloading. Easy blindside back at receiving. Lot of room. Guards are nice. No overnight parking.

Guard & staff are VERY nice. It can be pretty easy or pretty difficult as far as space. My 1st visit they were VERY busy & it was very tight to get backed in, but it was doable. They're willing to spot you, you just may need to use your words & ask. This time I was here, I had a 6am appt & showed up at 0507, for my dock assignment right away & every dock was empty so it was easy peasy. Both of my visits I've been loaded & ready to go within about 2 hours. It can be congested, & it's Chicago, so WATCH YOUR SIGNS, allow for extra time for traffic if at all possible, & BE KIND. If you are loading a reefer, it needs to be precooled to -10, & you need to use the light at 42nd. It'll look like an alley, but it's the right place.

I’ve never had any real problems here other than it is super tight, it usually takes me a bit and sometimes a spotter to get in. The staff are usually pretty friendly. I will say I hate coming when it’s busy though. You can check in an hour early but if it’s busy be understanding.

I gave 3 stars because of the location and the fact it was 2 hours past my apt time before I received a dock assignment. I’m not to sure why people say this is a blind side dock situation because it is not. The backing isn’t bad, just a basic sight side slanted back up with a fence line In front of the docks. No overnight parking available here and I would use the app smart truck route to route me into this facility. It’s downtown Chicago and almost every way has low clearance bridges you will not fit under.

Second time here. First time great. Got my door promptly and unloaded. Today-3 hrs so far and no door

Lots of space to maneuver but some docks have got pillars along them which can give hard time if u r a rookie Takes lots of time to load (3 hours in my case) Staff is friendly

DO NOT COME TO THIS PLACE!!!! If your dispatcher booked a load here either cancel it or good luck spending a whole day We booked a load day before it gets picked up called the next day at 11:00 am they said the product is ready to load my apt was at 2:00 pm showed up at noon waited 6,5 hours no dock no eta nothing security is the worse humans in the world they don’t have a check in spot either you call they careless on the phone about you getting a dock or getting loaded I lost a whole day screw these folks rude and arrogant all the way no over night parking it’s a tight place all day I helped people back in to docks pretty much was a hectic lost of a business day for me after I left 10 hours later they said they have a dock for me screw you and your load!!!!

Fast unloaded but very tight driver backing next to me hit my truck. Trucks should unhook not enough room.

It’s honestly not hard to get to if you follow your truck GPS it leads you straight here. Just drive slow and pay attention to signs. The docks are on the back side and it’s not a bad back, but I wouldn’t suggest rookies come here. The lady in the guard shack is really friendly. I gave 3 starts because it took me 3 hours to get a dock door and because staging is on a side street and you have to get back into traffic on Ashland ave to get to the docks. It’s winter so, it’s dirty near the docks from all the mushy snow

In&out my appointment was 11:00 am but I was out 0500 am they open around 04:00 if u are hero don’t worry they gotchu they have overnight parking while you sleep they will unload

This place is absolutely horrendous. Dont even think about coming here. They have absolute 0 respect for any drivers and they discriminate. They take their own people in but could care less about anybody else. One of the worst places i ever had to come to. I wish it was possible to give negative stars

Pulled in, dock right away, unloaded in 2 hours with paperwork in hand. Not great but can't complain. 42nd pl is SHIPPING only, receiving is entrance at bus stop with white guard shack. Blind back but simple blind back.

the worst of the worst receivers, where I have been in 10 years of experience.. No waiting parking..Have to look for street parking around downtown Chicago.. Rude staff.. Definitely not recommended..

First time here Tight docks for shipping and no overnight parking. They have restroom inside but they want you to use it, They want you to use porta potty outside.

People are nice here,but are gotta set ur reefer to -20 before coming here as you book the load for temp 33.it took 2.5 hours to get the reefer to came down to temp 0 ,wasted 3 hours.

Checked in 13:30 for a 18:00 appt. Out at 15:00. Not a lot of room, but no trouble getting in the dock. People were friendly. Check in by phone.

Not a fan of blind side docking but it was survivable. Ladies working the security booth were super sweet. I could hang out with them daily.

This place sucks.i hope and pray I never have to come back here again.7hrs without BOL.CLAIM TEMP RECORDER IS NOT READING THE PROPER TEMP. I don't see how.when my TEMP is at 34 box is at 34. Bad attitudes from the start unprofessional
