LOL! That maybe true but everybody I've met and or dealt with there has been more than friendly, pleasant and helpful. I drove in at around midnight and the location actually creeped me out more than the terminal itself. LOL

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

This place looks like a boneyard for every trailer and dolly that Central Freight ever OWNED from their first day in business. I couldn't tell you about the location. I drove in this morning in FOG as thick as pea soup. Drove 15 mph for 5 or 6 miles. Barely found the EXITS and STREET SIGNS.
