• Yard man on duty during the week and all night Friday to receive cattle and all night Saturday usually till noon on Sunday to load out. PLEASE NOTE:  if sale gets over early with a short run or they don't expect trucks in, they will get their chores done & lock up, it is not a given that our men will stay all night Saturday.   If Office has NOT been told to hold your check for pickup, they are not available for load-out guys to get for you.  Do not call load-out Phone# to pick up a check if door is locked!!  Sunday check pickup is an "iffy" situation, best to pickup Saturday or Monday if you can please.
