    Yes. The address does show up as a house, and oh my God it was a nightmare trying to find it afterwards.

    It's been awhile, so I don't remember the exact address, but what was the address they gave you? I can give you some directions based on that.

    No, haven't been to that one. It's the only one I haven't been to, in fact.

    I remember now. The address they gave was 2155 Rose St. That shows up on the GPS as a house.

    Use 2100 N 25th Ave, or whatever address is closest to 2155 that will come up. It'll put you close to it, and it's on the right side if coming from the south off of 64, not too far over the bridge.

    Oh, and be ready, they're not particularly polite there. And I remember getting into a huge argument with them over load securement, they sometimes want to use load locks vertically in the trailer to secure certain pallets, and the ones we're given don't stretch that far.

    If you are going to the one on West Berteau , take 43 d Kostner ave , left under freeway and sharp right at stop sign. Then first right trough the gate and get in line. It is around 2-4 hours to unload. When done ,do not go back under freeway , turn right instead at the stop sign,
    then left on irving park .

    Ohhh God, not that one. Okay man, get ready.

    You want to get off of 90/94 at the N Kostner Ave exit, and turn left under the bridge. IMMEDIATELY after the bridge, Berteau Ave is on your right. This is going to be one of the hardest turns you will ever do, I promise you.

    To turn right here, you're going to need the oncoming lanes. You'll do a TIGHT button hook turn, and then the entrance to the plant will be a small road on your right that goes up behind the apartment buildings. It's immediately after you turn onto Berteau and do that tiny little S curve.
