What went poorly?
  • Intermittent Tracking

This carrier is good and they run everything smoothly while communicating. They're actually fairly decent compared to others but they did lie about the amount of trailers they have and used others. Make sure you keep them under tracking and they'll be a great carrier.

This carrier has done a bunch of loads for us and they do a great job, especially at following the times and tracking all the time but they do take forever to answer emails and sometimes don't even answer at all. I've had to reach out to them many times before getting a response.

Likes

This carrier is a dedicated carrier that runs one lane us all the time. they are at tracking and at communicating their location with us any time we ask them to.

Dislikes

they drop their trailers at the shipper so tracking can sometimes be spotty. All you have to do is call and they will update location right away
