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.

Thank you for a good review. We provide asset tracking through our ELD integration and trailer tracking with any of the tracking services including project44, FourKites, Macropoint etc. We also have EDI capabilities and can automatically generate and transmit timestamped reports directly from our TMS. We stand for transparency and absolute visibility of all of our trucks and trailers.
