Overview

When it comes to transportation services, we think differently. As far as we're concerned, bottom dollar service renders bottom dollar outcomes. So why not a trucking company that provides solutions all while preventing future problems? That is central to our vision and our promise to every customer.

We don't see logistics as a cost center or necessary evil in business, but rather a competitive multiplier. Done right, it makes or breaks your growth day in and day out. Done poorly, it's headaches, problems, and operations grind to a halt.

With that in mind, we aspire to three core values:

(1) Our customer IS our brand. -- Who we serve and how well we serve them speaks to who we are.

(2) Work doesn't have to suck. -- Be somewhere people want to work.

(3) The quality of our culture defines the quality of our work. --

Carrier has handled our unique facility and pick up windows very well and often provided solutions to make things go more smoothly, that’s why we choose GLS again and again.

Dislikes

Availability; seeing as we ship on an irregular schedule, sometimes we can only book a load for pick up as soon as the next day.
