Lantern has run a couple of loads for my team and they have impressed us on both lanes. They provided updates throughout the shipment, had polite dispatchers and drivers who answered their phones.
- Dislikes
After the load is completed they are harder to get in touch with and we couldn't obtain PODs immediately after delivery.
