Had a few decent runs with this carrier, although timeliness to delivery on one was an issue. Luckily, the driver let us know (traffic delay), so we could advise the receiver. Rates are pretty good, paperwork comes quickly, but they do have active broker authority as well so have to be careful which loads to run with them.

Boyd bros has always been a great carrier for us. They do a majority of southern hauls for us. They are always able to move our loads from the southeast towards any direction, They have done a lot of loads for us from Alabama to places out west like Texas and Oklahoma, especially towards the texas area. They have always been on time and a great asset.

Collins and his team at Boyd Bros are really good at helping out in a tight spot. We lean on these guys heavy when freight gets tough.
