About Yusen Logistics (Americas) Inc.
Yusen Logistics (Americas) Inc. is a business that offers logistics services. They have a straightforward process for receiving reefer loads. Drivers are advised to dock at the lowest numbered door available, then check in with their ID and license plate number. A chock is available to borrow if needed. Upon arrival, drivers are asked to shut off their engine, chock their wheels, and set their brakes. It's essential to follow the proper procedures and not break seals. If a driver is unsure about the process, it's recommended to check in early to clarify any doubts. The crew is generally informative and a pleasure to work with. However, it's worth noting that they can be slow to start the day, so arriving before 7:00 am may not be necessary. Once checked in, the unloading process is typically completed within 30 minutes.

They're a little slow to get the day going. Really not much point in showing up before 0700. Jump in dock one, or whichever is the lowest available. Bring driver's license and plate number with you to check in, borrow chock. Quick unload, usually inside 30 minutes
