For units you need on time and not damaged I recommend not using them. We give up to 14 days and on average they take 20 days or more.

Huge asset based carrier with alot of equipment to utilize. Professional dispatchers and drivers.

They only run teams, which limits on which lanes we can use them on. Not interested in 500 mile per day runs.
