Goose Creek SC pickup questions.

[acmunro]

I have a CUCV at Goose Creek, SC. the EUC cleared today. Does anyone know how flexible they are on the 10 business day pick up rule ? My timing seems to always be off when It comes to EUC's when I want them to go through fast they go slow and vice versa. I am going on Vacation for the next week and a half. Might see if someone can pull it out and hold it till I can come for it. Thanks in advance.

Each site is different...call the site manager as early as possible and at least let him know that you are being proactive in your arrangements.
Some sites require appointments, some are first come, first served. They do not like being called at the last minute and being asked to make special accomodations.
Some parts of Goose Creek are very high security.....or were the last time I was down there...you may have to wait at the gate for an escort even if you have a military ID (Anniston Army Depot is such a case).
If this is the case you must be on time for your appointment.
You will also have to have current Drivers License, up to date tags, proof of insurance and anyone with you will have to have a photo ID. DO NOT CARRY ANY FIREARMS OR AMMUNITION WITH YOU. They have no sense of humor about this and they will either turn you around at the gate or arrest you. They can search your vehicle without your consent.
If you are arrested you will go in front of a Federal Magistrate.....if you get a ticket on post for anything it will be dealt with at the Federal level.
All that being said I used to go there in a Commerical Vehicle all the time and never had an issue.
Good luck with the recovery.

Wouldn't even think about taking a firearm. One of my last recoveries I set off the Radiation detector on the way out. Had to turn around go back through and then back through again. -- That was fun with a vehicle in tow with a towbar. Thank you

If you get an approval to pick up your truck after the allotted time, make sure you get it in writing. I got a verbal OK on a truck, and GL reclaimed it. I protested, but they would not relent. I learned a hard lesson. It says that if you do not pick up by the assigned date, they can resell the truck.

If they tell you they will hold it, I would at the very least get it in an email.

That sounds like good advice. Once things get to the Arizona level there isn't much flexibility where GL is concerned.
