I used dot line for a while now, they are an LTL carrier only, they have very good rates but the transit time is slow, you have to email the customer service back, they do charge 25.00$ to use pallet jack while no one else in the industry for LTL charges for that.

Communication between drivers and dispatchers is strong. It is always a reliable carrier to send your loads to, they have caps in many places and take a lot of loads.
