Booked a same day team run for slightly over market rate. ETA was accurate and their updates were timely
- Dislikes
Only downside with these guys was the rate. Nothing to improve other than that.

This carrier took a load from OH - MI for us and delivered the load on time. They charged more than we wanted to pay but this was a really hot load that needed to be moved fast so we paid the rate.
- Dislikes
The drivers were hard to get in touch with and all communication had to go through dispatch. Also they were high on rate but they are a Chicago carrier so its to be expected.
