ParkingI am writing this review before I even unload here, for the sole purpose of letting drivers know there is plenty and I mean plenty of parking here on the road that leads in to this place. Off McKinley and Fowler. (the only entrance)Trucks are parked on both sides, and there are even a few dropped trailers here. They told me at the guard shack that many drivers drop their trailers and go out into town for a day or three. So it’s ok to get all the way here at a good time of the day to beat the traffic and wait it out or go to the beach or what have you. My wife and I are leaving our trailer here after our delivery Friday and going to get a motel and coming back Monday. These people here are slow as molasses
Drivers avoid this place at all cost. Had appointment. Sat in parking lot for 3 hrs before they gave me a dock. No respect for drivers time. Remember they get paid by the hour we don’t. Pepsi needs to be more considerate with drivers being that they have drivers of there own. Our time is valuable. Look into the people in the warehouse. If they are not productive, there is tons of people that are looking for jobs!!!!!!!
Fast and efficient when u have a early morning pickup and delivery
I arrived at 1pm for a pickup appointment at 3pm, that delivers the next morning 7hrs away at 10am.Its currently 10pm and I still havent even been given a door, with just now making it relatively to the front of the line with 2 trucks ahead of me.Dont come here in a rush, youll pull your hair out.Edit: 11:15pm finally dockedEdit: loaded and left at 12:35amEdit: back again at 02:30am because they loaded it backwards making me 2,000lbs heavy in the front 🤦🏾♂️🤬
Yea if you a driver avoid this place. Just takes to long unless you at the end of your shift and need to do your break. It does have a place to park.
Very slow load time but they do pay 60hr detention so I chilled
Please bring back reg and diet vanilla Pepsi its been very hard to find it in bottles and in cases
Quick unload, has parking on the side of the enterance for overnight
Horrible took forever to unload don’t come here
Best yet 15 min done and gone hell of a job
Nice and fast pre _ loaded first pepsi place that maked it easy peasy
Quick&Friendly pickup, in-out 1.5 hour.
08/18/20 around 03:40 am. Not sure who that guy was sitting outside the guard shack using a laptop, but he was one of the rudest people on earth that Ive ever encountered, I am a driver and tried to talk to him to get help, he just looked at me and pointed his finger to another guy inside and then I tried to ask him what he meant, he just ignored me and wouldnt look or talk to me and kept shaking his head. The company should be able to identify this guy based on the info I provided and he is recommended for job termination. Other than this guy, everyone else is friendly.
Got here many hours late due to previous load and they still got me loaded and out of there in less than an hour. Alot of places need to take a page from this locations book.
5 Am appointment live unload in and out in 45 min idk if I just got lucky but I had a good experience. Couldn’t find a bathroom or anyone to point one out only complaint!
Fcfs. Awesome
They treat truck drivers with respect
Waited about an hour and a half to get loaded. Not too bad considering there was 5 trucks in front of me. Enter off McKinley and Fowler NOT 30th st and Fowler.
Great people I haul loads out of there they work very hard on getting you in and out
Loading takes about 2 to 3 hours. Arrive on time or if you come before your appointment, theyll send you back. Theres a street in front of the warehouse, so you can wait there.
Make sure u have an app. If broker says a window, it is a lie. You will wait all day there until they finish working the ones with app.
I pick up loads there employees are awsome
Friendly, better than Cincinnati Pepsi plants...
🐌 Slow
Entrance off McKinley Ave, Looks like you can park along entrance overnight if your in a pinch. Receiving Starts at 0500 and can get you in early if theyre are not busy. You drop trailer at door then bobtail across from it in any available spot, you can watch the green light or guy will get you. My guy just opened up empty bay door next to my trailer to signal me when I was done. Fast unload.
TRUCK ENTRANCE IS 11600 McKinley Dr, Tampa, FL 33612. You have to drop the trailer in the door. I had a fast loading only there for an hour.
Reviews are spot on! 4.5 hours after check in, I made it to a door for a live load, WITH an appointment! Been almost 2 hrs now at the door loading. Dont come here in a hurry, or with your clock running. People are friendly tho, just very very slow loading.
Quick
Absolutely will not ever book a load that picks up here ever again. Almost five hours to get loaded and only two trucks were in front of me with several docks.
About 2 and half hour unloading but ok
Wors place
Great place quick unloading
Very slow
Great place to pick load up from. Theyre friendly and get you loaded in timely manner.
Friendly staff and pretty good loading time.
Really easy to get in and out. Fast drop and hook.
Yard guy disrespectful kuss you out for trying to talk to him
My sweet wife loves pepsi-cola I love yall lemme tea
I miss my delivery appointment because coyote miss pickup appointment trying to sell load for less. Spend 8 hours in GA to get loaded and 8 hours here to get unloaded both from PepsiCo. Just tired to be at fault for other peoples. Yes, this is fare to sit here like in jail with no food and wait for god blessing. No ones care, especially Coyote who mess up everything. Thats trucking today! Be prepaired.
In and out fairly quick
10 hours wait time
Fast load / unloading. Great .
Tell the goof handing out Rockstar drinks at the bro biwl to stop giving out stickers. The kids are sticking them all over the place vandalizing the park.
Theyre trying hard to get people in and out for sure
Load was good
Going there is part of my truck driving job!
I love pepsi
Waited too long
Cramped, crowded and chaotic.
Out with in a half hour, great place
I use to work for them has a driver
Terrible waiting time, two hours just to get a dock.
Spaces are very narrow
2h in and outYou have to wait 20 min on the way out for them to count the product
Great company but lousy and lazy supervisors that just want to sit on there ass.
Busy, but ok
If ever you go to these distribution centers take plenty of change your favorites of pepsi products are available at pennies
Huge place. Very professional staff. Unload time took a bit, however, it was only a paper work issue... time in and out was fair, even with the unexpected issues.
Normal slow to load..but been at worsr
Quick drop and hook
Great place to work
Had a pallet fall over and I had to re stack it. No big deal but then the cleaning lady and 2 other workers came and help me re stack. They honestly did not have to do it but they did. :)
I work there
Yard dog was friendly.
The best
Nice crew
Average pepsi unload
Great company
My job
Awesome
The worst place to load and unload from 11AM waiting is 8 pm and now they have started to unload but they lower a pallet every 15 min stressful the truth
Este lugar la verdad que no tienen respeto hacia los choferes no respetan sus apoime hacen lo que le da la gana no tienen control de nada ahí en poca palabras no sirve
If c could give you minus 5 it would be little
My personal opinion is that there is a custodian who discriminates against me, perhaps because I am Hispanic. It is the only one in 6 months with which I have had problems at the time of leaving and that what I carry is recycling material.
They take a long time
Very professional
