What went poorly?
  • Poor Dispatcher Communication

APL CARGO's driver ignored almost all our calls, had a morning pick up before Noon on a weekend load (REEFER PRODUCE). Dispatch stated they could not get a hold of the driver. Driver finally answers says he will make it by 1PM. Then later states after an hour that his ETA will be 3:30PM. We failed the load to our customer.

This team offered a good rate on a reefer move a few months back and did a great job. They arrived on time for both sides and were very responsive when we requested information. They had no issues while hauling this load. Great team!

Just an ok carrier, some lanes run very smoothly and others are a mess. On the good ones, communication is good on all fronts, tracking is consistent and they are timely. On the rough loads, they've not been forthcoming w/driver info (hours of service), are unresponsive and late to appts. Will give them another go, but it is a risk
