I delivered there this morning at 5:30am. First come, first served. Prepare to park parallel to traffic in the street, go check in and back across traffic behind and iwatch for traffic in front when you go to straighten out. Unloaded by 6:15am and back on the road.

Not a bad place to deliver. Pretty quick once you’re actually in the dock. Have to come in heading north on western Ave. park in the center lane(or shoulder if full) on western Ave just before Huron St. Next to docks there’s a clipboard. Put your name, company, PO number, and cell number. They’ll call you or come flag you down when it’s your turn. Their trucks, and any milk trucks that show up(can be 1, or 10.. hit and miss), take priority. Backing in you’ll block all lanes of traffic. Western Ave is VERY busy. You’ll never get a break in traffic. Just choose a moment and commit, start creeping out and stop traffic. I’ve been told dock guys will help stop traffic. They never have for me, though I’ve also never asked.

It’s tight but if you set up right you will be fine there is no parking on the street and if you do security will make you move they guys are really quick and the 1st brown building is where you check in also get there early as possible less traffic is a plus

Friendly fast service
Actual driver check in is 700 N Western ... Definitely come in from south heading north on Western. You can park in street south of Huron to wait .. I wouldn't try overnight
Check in starts about 4 ish .. they took me at 4:45 am
Must be bold enough to ignore traffic ... That time of morning isn't bad though

Avoid if possible, I don't say that much but this is my story delivery time on load 0430 arrival time 400 offloadinding doesn't start til 530ish for me 545ish total count 6pallets
Departure 830ish
Problem after dragging a load almost 800 miles the offloaded damaged 1 case and was attempting to get me to sign off that I damaged the case I explained I don't load trucks nor sign-off on damages but after him and just about the entire crew and both managers tried to apply pressure for me to sign (epic fail😂🤣) I finally left after 800 for a next appointment of 600
Now I know some of you might be saying maybe it was damaged oat shipper but from pa to chi and
1 not one drop on trailer floor
2 the case was not completely saturated
3 the box was on the bottom of the skid gravity and motion both strongly suggest should of and would been empty/crushed

Just my suggestion either avoid or take pictures before allowing access to trailer

To the business shady practices like that is the main thing that stifles a business growth....and be mindful of how you approach people the next person might not keep it professional

That was suppose to be damage from 800 miles fri-mon🤔🤔😑

The only reason they don't get 4 stars is because you have to back in off of Western Ave. which is a main drag. Wait and time the lights as best as you can and then just go for it.

Once you're in it goes pretty quick but a lot of the time they'll only do one truck at a time. Been going there for years and they've always been fine.

Come from the south, meaning you're going north on Western. Too busy of a street to blindside into.

I work at a gelato shop and Badger Murphy supplies our store with the milk needed twice a week. Even during COVID, we're busy. Their customer service is excellent from the folks on the phone to the folks who deliver the milk. Highly recommend, these guys rock!!
