Enter off 78, take left on Marlin, turn on 13th, park to the side and check in at guard shack. We were checked in and unloaded before our appointment time on a Good Friday.
Yery tight yard and backing. The guard from shack was spot on directing and making it happen for us. Listen to him. Staff was friendly and efficient. Great views of the city too.

Driver of truck number 2437 is EXTREMELY unprofessional, used no turn signals and proceeded to pull out directly in front of me on Brodhead road in Bethlehem and almost killed me in my car. I work for a trucking company and he would be fired for that if someone from the company seen it
