Good carrier but dispatcher Ted Caps is not great do not recommend booking with him, he will bother you constantly and yell and cuss, just easier to book with someone else.

I think this carrier asks for a little on the higher end for rates. The dispatchers are very responsive and they update you on the trucks location quickly without issues on pickup or delivery side!
