As a flatbed driver, it went well. Stop at the gate. Someone will tell you where to move. Staff was friendly although keep an eye looking around since few lift driver are on their cellphone. Staff was friendly. It took me 45 min to unstrap and getting unloaded I would sleep in street if I was to get the day before. It seems a safe area. Nice place in general.

Amazing service for any industry better than most hospitality operations! One of the many workers in the lumberyard instructed us on where to find our materials and than went to the office and wrapped up 20 brackets we needed and delivered them to us in the yard in a very timely fashion! These guys are good! The gentleman that took my order was very polite! Keep this up KBM!

Customer service is #1 with this company. I wish I could remember the 2 gentleman's names but they bent over backwards to make things right and have us satisfied. I hope to continue our business with them.
