I've done a lot of work with GrassHopper, they are very easy to work with. They have been a reliable carrier for us over the past year and have proven to be a valuable partner. They are on-time for pick up and deliveries, they communicate any problems as soon as they happen, and their rates are very fair compared to the market rates.

It was a pleasure to work with this carrier on this load. The communication from the dispatcher was solid. We received the necessary updates. The driver provided excellent tracking from start to finish. Looking forward to working with them again.

Grasshopper does a great job on with timeliness and tracking. Their communication could be slightly better, but have worked with a lot worse. Overall great team to work with that will get the job done.
