Never been here before but wont mind coming back! I was in and out in no time and it was also really nice to be greeted at the gate by a sweet, wonderful smile and a hello!! Miss Carla seems to enjoy her job and it shows. Nice to be treated like your not bothering someone when we arrive to do our jobs! Look forward to coming back.

Load was three hours late, as soon as it was ready their system went down, two hour wait on paperwork. Great, only get 7 hours of sleep before I have to leave to make load on time, at least they got overnight parking, right? Why yes they do but two hours into my rest break, shifts changed and new yard driver woke me up asking if I’m loaded instead of just getting up to see if trailer is sealed. Great! Don’t get to sleep either, Thanks Guys! Been up 24 hours and get to Push 600+ miles tomorrow on 4 hours of sleep just to make load on time. Won’t be coming back.

Cant blame sorrynest.... This place is what it is, however Ill choose very carefully if I take a load here again. If the price is right 2K will be worth the wait Detentions not designed for OTR drivers

Is this the location of the old Dinner Bell Foods Plant in Wilson? If I recall, Dinner Bell closed it down in the late 80’s or early in the 90’s. Thanks for any info. If the DB plant was at a different location, appreciate it if you could provide an address. Thanks

Load was suppose to be ready at 7am we showed up around noon. Load was not ready and they don’t allow dogs at all (even if they stay in the truck) on there property was told to drop the trailer and then leave immediately and wait for a phone call for our load. We didn’t get a call until 2am so be prepared we even work for a big company with multiple trailers on there lot. Closest truck stop and scale in 30 minutes away.

Easy in and out process, competent and friendly guard. Downside is the trailer lot is dirt and very rough. I was here after a storm so there were mud pools sized everywhere between manhole covers and tractor cabs.

Friendly but not well organized and they dont have a scale to use. Have to drive out about 30 minutes to scale at Petro exit 106

Ok Corporate. Yall seriously need to pave the back parking lot. I feel sorry for the yard dogs having to work in this kind of environment. Theres a freaking pond in the middle of the lot thats never gonna dry up. Gravel apparently aint working. Its a shameful mud pit yall call a trailer lot.

Its a decent place to work. Money is okay but you will work. This work is very fast paced and due to the nature of the work, your hands will be extremely painful for about 4 to 5 months until they get accustomed to the work. Supervisors arent really involved in day to day operations. Many are new so line workers have more experience which makes the day frustrating at times. If you keep this in mind and just go to work to make a living and dont take anything else personally, youll be fine.

If youre a trucker make sure you get there in a timely fashion we waited almost 24 hours for them to load a trailer. Then got told it was supposed to be done at 7pm the night before. Not alot of communication here.

Review №14

Parking lot for dropped trailers needs graded before we start tearing up our landing gear on our own trailers!!! Pot holes are more like craters the size of tractors and is going to cost a lot of money in future repairs.

Review №15

I left because I got tired of being harassed and having to fuss with coworkers EVERYDAY!!! I had to go to Human Resources on my 2nd day because I was being harassed and nothing was done but they stress this policy in orientation and suppose to have a open door policy. They care about certain employees. That’s one job that I quit and never looked back. This was not Wilson it was the Kinston plant.

8 hrs after apptmt time is when I’m loaded...!? What’s the point of an appointment? Just say show up and we’ll get to you whenever. For the most part the staff is professional. But this wait time is ludicrous

Review №18

Was told our appt was at Noon. We arrived on-time. They dont allow dogs even though ours is pottied before arrival. He wouldnt be out of truck. We leave premises. Was 5 min from accepting a different load & they called at 3:30 pm wanting our trailer to be dropped for loading. At 7:00 pm we are finally loaded & leaving. What a crock! Hold a driver (team) hostage when we were told the load was ready at noon.

I use to work here and the place is terrible. The supervisors are so disrespectful and if you not sleeping with the them they treat you any kind of way. HR department never solves the problem when you have an issue. They brush things under the rug. I wouldn’t recommend no one to work there until they show BETTER changes at this plant.

I went to here on a service call. Didnt get to tour the plant but everyone I encountered was nice. I almost felt like I was a true part of the Smithfield family, not just a vendor on site for repairs. Every one I interacted with made me feel like I was welcomed.

Review №25

This place is fairly clean for a meat plant, Overnight parking is available. Be advised, there are no signs, but this facilities doesnt allow dogs. You will be turned away. I gave them 3 stars for not publicly displaying the dog policy, and because they have overnight parking without facilities.

Review №26

Granted I was given load late which caused me to be late, but they placed too much weight on the front end of trailer after taking 6 hours from arrival time to load me. Came back and it took them another 7 hours to rework their mess up. They allow you to finish a break at the back of their property and they have restrooms.

They are direct contract with CR England, if you are CR England drivers, you will drop and pick up preloaded trlr very quickly. If you are outside carrier driver, good luck with this company. I recommend you come here along low hours on ELD, because you will able to reset your 10 hours ELD during they are very slow download live loading more than 9 hours!!! I got bill about 11 hours since i was here for picked up the load! They didnt care about your schedule but will keep you so long like sitting in the prison. I gave one star because they provide the restroom for driver.

Had an appointment at 7 am. Its 2 pm and not even in a door yet. Only reason for the one star is they let you park here overnight. Just make sure you bring food and something to drink.
