[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 1418910, member: 52978"] There is usually about 1-1.5 weeks during peak that all hell breaks loose on our yard. A majority of the problem comes from all the independents that come onto the yard. Since they run together quite often, they arrive at the same time. They are told to hang the phone up, turn right and drop your trailer next to the car wash or on the break down pad. It's not really their fault, they don't know any better and in my opinion, you get what you pay for. That becomes a pinch point and I've seen them drop a trailer blocking the only open lane on that side of the yard. At this point, you can only go counter-clockwise around our building, and it might take an hour to take a journey that would usually take less than 2 minutes. It happens every year, and I saw 38 of them as a driver. I don't see it changing, at least on the yard I worked on. I just call dispatch OTP or the CB and say "I'll get to the gate when I get there." Show me the money. lol [/QUOTE]
