I checked in 6 am and my appointment time was at 12 noon, I have been 8 hours and they still dont start charging, I have talked to everyone and they have lied to me all day, and they are just starting to prepare the load that I am going to carry, which I must wait 3 or 4 more hours, it is a lack of respect for the drivers, Read a manager and be able to respond. Never come to this place, they make fun of the drivers.

Wish I could make it up just for how bad this place is. Comparable to somewhere like Anheuser Busch in Aurora, CO. Irritating location to get to because it’s West Chicago, as you all know. Guard shack is a half mile walk away with no covering and only 2 drivers allowed inside at a time. No big deal, until it pours rain in the summer or 0 degrees in the Winter. Stood in the rain for 15 minutes before the guard shack decided “this isn’t good. Let’s tell everyone to come inside so there’s 10 people literally touching elbows in the middle of a pandemic”.Still waiting in a dock to get loaded. The only reason this place gets 1 star instead of zero is because they had a dock ready for my 1pm appointment at 12:30. Doesn’t matter much though if loading times are still bad. Paper they hand you at check in is a little confusing. Bolded letters that say ‘wait for call’. Wait for call to what? Open my doors? Back in the dock? To know I’m loaded? All 3?From other drivers when I checked in, seems the average total in and out time is 4 hours. Not terrible I guess, but far from what should be acceptable. Other minor gripe is yard dogs are opening empty trailer doors across the mile long parking lot from the dock when dropping in doors. So if any larger drop and hook carriers are reading this, you’re using 20 gallons of fuel to keep the reefer running for a day or two just so the yard dogs open your doors for 5 minutes in September and heat up the trailer to 50+ degrees again. For a company that makes their money off of carriers showing up to haul their product, they sure seem to not have any interest in keeping the carriers/drivers happy at all.

This place no parking on the property has a narrow road coming in and you have to park on the road. walk up to the gate shack, which is clear down at the end of the road they have toilet facilities inside. check in you have to stand outside so if its cold or raining dress accordingly. loading can take some time depending on the day and the truck volume. Depending on which dock door you get it may be a little tight to back into a door. Check out they will call you you take the paper he gave you at check-in record the seal number and walk to the gate walk to the gate walk to the gate they dont like it when you drive down

To start, staging for this place is terrible. Trucks parked all along either side of the road in front of this place. That is where you park then walk (could be half a block or more) to the security shack at the final entrance.The entrance the expect you to come in at puts the majority of the docks on blind side. The lot isnt very wide to be able to turn around just anywhere or tight for a blind side.Security is pretty rude. For the most part, straight forward and matter of factual. They require mask inside the guard shack and the one guy was pretty rude about it. My mistake was assuming since it was a shack that I wouldnt be going inside so I left my mask in the truck, half a block down. They do have cloth mask if you forget yours or dont have one. While he was wearing a mask himself, at one point he chose to pull it down uncovering his mouth and nose. He eventually pulled it back up. I personally dont think you should force a mask if you cant completely wear one yourself. At check out he wasnt wearing it at all. The mask isnt the issue the hypocrisy is.Actual loading time was average with most live loads. Took about an hour to start and another 30 minutes to an hour to call and say they were done. I had already been told by employee they were done and I can close and seal and then wait for the call. The non security personnel were all friendly.TL;DR: If you have the option then youd be better off declining anything in or out.

Place is a joke. Apparently just this week they started drivers not being able to park trucks in the truck staging area that is clearly marked with a sign. Check in guy had an attitude for no reason when telling us we needed to park on the street that has no parking signs posted everywhere. Then the security guys had us wait in a tent to check in, in 8° weather like animals. Pic included is the tent waiting room for check in

Review №11

Arrived on Geneva St to signs everywhere to No Parking...However, no staging on the property is allowed and parking is required on the street.No signs posted about where to check in. Driver must walk to the check in building near the end of Geneva St. It was a cool and misty day when I was there. It took the check in female approximately 15-20 minutes to help each person, while everyone stood outside waiting.I did get a door fairly quickly, but had to sit approximately an hour before loading began. Had to go to door beside dock 53 to get paperwork, which was ready quickly.

Terrible place to get loaded, most Lineage are bad, but this is by far the worst one yet. Been here since 11:30 am yesterday they just called me at 3:22am to assign me a door. I asked the lady how long will it take to load me, she said I will have to wait till first shift and they Should have me loaded around 7am. I laughed and hung up the phone and canceled the load. If you book a load here just cancel it. You will be here a long time.

As soon as i see Lineage I know 3 things: rude clueless employees! Disorganization at its finest! And, im going to be sitting ALL DAY LONG. 7 hours sitting in a door as of now. Ive been loaded for 5 1/2 hours but nobody seems to want to print out my bills. I guess they must like looking out the window and seeing my truck huh? All Lineages are the same...

Worst Ever experience I had here to check in . As you see she gave me gate pass at 9.15 and i was waited over 45 minutes to get checked in. No Respects for drivers standing in cold windy Weather the lady inside was doing nothing.Idk why you guys using computers still take 1 hour to check in .They had that Check in box outside to prevent from covid but in restrooms there is no hand soap or Sanitizer. Lol you can guess how clean the facility will be. No parking too park in street and stand in line for hour to check in 🙄

Not as worst as it used to be, still have to park on street and then check-in in the booth outside, security guy was nice and fast. Loaded in 4 hours, came in at 5am for 5:30am appt. Can do 34 on the street. When getting out from lineage rd, no left turn, 5T limit, and cops know that.

Review №24

I wish I could rate this place lower. Both here and University Park, IL are 2 of the worst places to load at. On 3/14/21 loaded at the Geneva, IL facility and first off 7 hrs to get loaded after arriving 30 min early. There was 3 different loaders working on my truck and the way it was loaded was just an utter mess. This is a running theme with these people and honestly had I known the broker booked for this shipper I wouldve flat refused. I had multiple overturned pallets from poorly loaded trailer and 2 sets of damages between 2 drops. My trailer was a mess inside and definitely not worth the haul. They need to set the building on fire and start all over, for real. Stay away from Lineage ⛔⛔☢☢

I agree with last review signs are building saying please park on street and walk bills.. no parking signs have always been the in the past I was told to pull in Id I was delivering so I could drop.. second we got here at 4:50 pm he get out of his car at 5:05 and walks up rude trying to pick an argument.

Review №28

So many negative reviews on here and the owner only responds to the handful of positive ones.Mr you have a problem here, how about you fix it instead of looking for positive reviews. Look at the negative ones, I know you see them!!! There is too many not to miss with the same experiences. You must not care at all!!I wish I can give this place zero stars. My appointment was at 630pm, I got here an early hour. They sent me to a door right away. Now it’s 10pm and I am still waiting to be loaded. This is going to set back my deliveries now to other places. This place is a joke. Not sure why they are still in business. To make truck drivers wait that long is very unprofessional. We are the ones that get your goods to be distributed, how dare this place take so long to load. Not to mention the same employees keep taking cigarette breaks every 20mins. The CEO needs to see this. This is not right at all!Update:So after waiting at this place for 7 hours, the front desk lady told me oh the security guard at the front gate was suppose to tell you we are behind 6 hours. Then she got on the walkie talkie to ask what is the status of my door being loaded.The guy on the other end laughed and said the Purdue truck did not get there yet so they couldn’t load me. Lady said I probably had to wait another four to six hours. Why are loads being booked that are not even at this facility yet? And for him to laugh and the girls in the office to thinks this is a joke, really shows their lack of passion for this job.

Receiving building is on the last crossing, you will stand in line to check in it took me 30 minutes to get to the receiving desk, you will need a # that starts with 142 or they will send you away! Also you have to give them your drivers license number so you may wanna have your drivers license with you. I had a 8:00 AM delivery I walk over to the receiving office at 7:30 AM I was in side at 7:58 AM they gave me a door right away, I had to wait for a cutter to cut off the cable seal about 10 minutes. They started on me right away after they put a lock on the red air line to the trailer. About 30 minutes I was empty. There is street parking! You must walk over to check in leave your truck on the street.Over all good place, they have a lot of trucks coming and going.Randy

Review №53

My first time here and it was traumatizing. The guard shack workers were not very warm in there welcoming and their personalities do not fit the kind of job they are doing, you need to get two ladies that are older and more experienced as they usually have better attitudes, I felt as if I was intruding on the male and females space when checking in.Then I was given a door and trying to back into a door was a nightmare, everybody was parked everywhere because there is not enough help in the guard shack. It was very unorganized.Let me make a suggestion , get a least two women that know what they are doing in the guard shack so you can get drivers through the checking in process more quickly.Also you need to organize your warehouse employees a little better in order to get loads of trucks faster . Its probably one big playground in that warehouse .You need your employees moral a little bit better , the ones in the guard shack and even your yard jockey all seemed to hate there jobs.I have worked in the food industry , retail and owned two businesses and I would have a talk with my employees,.I just hope the warehouse guys hurry so I can get out of here and shake all this negative vibes off. .

Review №60

If I could post 0 stars I would. By far the most obnoxious facility I deliver to with any kind of regularity. All staff - desk workers, security personnel, shunt truck drivers - all of them - are rude, disrespectful and unorganized. They regularly make you sit for 12 hours with no communication whatsoever and definitely no apologies. Some loading docks are impossible to access with a 53 highway tractor.They rely on a 2 lane city street as their parking lot/staging area that is constantly full of trucks on both sides of the road, to the point youre nearly taking fellow drivers mirrors off. Avoid this place like the plague, if you can. A total disgrace to the trucking industry.

Appt. Time 9:30am arrived at 9:00am. You can park on the street and walk up to checking in door. Sign in with security guard first inside building and dont forget your pick up #. Then go next door to sign in again, you need Drivers license and pick up #. Go to the dock door assigned to you, verify pre-cool temp. Chock wheels disconnect red line and play the waiting game.

Street parking only. Park your truck on the road and walk up. You check in by dock 53. Walk to the right when you get inside to the drivers lounge and check in with security then you will wait to check in only two drivers in the room at a time to check in. Go to your dock break seal and open doors. You do not need to slide tandems unless you want to. My appointment was for 0800 and i checked in at 0743 got my door right away. Unloaded by 0834

Covid has everything bonkers at the moment and their does seem to be a major lack in organisation. Overall the staff is trying to make it work but Im under the impression the the person in charge is not open to suggestions. I feel like the staff is just doing as they are told and not questioning authority. I hope that the boss sees this and is ready to listen to his employees to smooth out the process. Also I think the drivers could help make recommendations based on otr experience.

I drive for Holland Enterprise out of Mapleton ND. We are here every other month. So I know !They will over load you ! They loaded my reefer with 47,800 lbs and when I was told to sign my bills I saw that and said I wasn’t able to carry that much weight they stated go scale and come back. I did and was 82,500 gross and it took 16 hours to have load fixed.Yes it was the next day. They are very slow and unprofessional. They won’t even let you sleep they’ll knock on your door every hour to tell you they need paperwork and you already turned it in. So they’ll say they can’t find it. So they’re asking you if you have an extra copy. Lol it’s only to mess with you.If they had a half star rating that would be too good for them.But they won’t let me post without giving them at least a star.
