KSM Carrier Group is great. They ran a dry van load with us. They responded to our check calls. Communication was there every step of the trip. Driver accepted electronic tracking and was on time.

Incredible updates, the afterhours/dispatch team automatically sent updates every 4 hours to our team for the status of this load. Adam was the dispatcher and was great to work with. The load was picked up and delivered on-time. Great service, would recommend and work with again.

Every few hundred miles they were sending the location of their driver.

Dislikes

There was an issue with delivery and they were very rude and disrespectful while we were trying to fix the problem to the best of our abilities.
