I've had a working relationship with NS Express for quite awhile now and they always exceed expectations. Their communication is top-notch and they always do a great job delivering on time. I look forward to working with them on loads in the future.

NS Express, tracked the entire shipment and provided PODs day of delivery for quick billing. Other than that nothing overwhelmingly spectacular didn't give location updates or arrival and departure updates.

This team is your average on time carrier, they will get the job done and nothing more. They have decent rates and will request all the detention/layover they can. They have ran more than a few loads for us and we will continue to use them. Decent team to work with.
