Menards Distribution Center

Menards Distribution Center provides a generally positive experience for deliveries. The facility offers quick service for drop and hook carriers, while live unloads may take longer. Overnight parking is available on-site, which is a helpful feature. Many drivers report efficient check-ins and prompt unloading, with some experiencing minimal wait times. The staff, including the office worker and on-site manager, are very helpful, especially when dealing with complications or mix-ups, such as issues with brokers like TQL. However, drivers should be cautious with delivery scheduling, as the center does not accept deliveries on weekends. Frequent deliveries reveal that trailer parking can be tight, often requiring drivers to flag down yard jockies to move trailers that are parked too close together. This can cause delays and frustration, as it’s difficult to crank the landing gear or maneuver between trailers. Better parking system and spacing are needed to make the process smoother for drivers. The center allows for overnight parking, with plenty of space available. Unloading times are usually around 2 hours, and there are no washrooms on-site. Overall, the facility is viewed positively, with helpful staff and efficient check-ins, but some improvements in trailer parking could enhance the experience further.
