They did a good job of being on time for both pick up and drop off.

Dislikes

They kept in touch from start to finish of the load and no damages or issues, I want to use this carrier again since they were easy to work with.

Spot load carrier we use when we are in a bind. Never have any issues with service

Dislikes

Carrier is always high on the rate and there is usually some back and forth. Just a recovery option

Dispatchers and drivers provide accurate updates. Carrier is strong on timeliness. Haven't missed an appointment with us yet

Dislikes

They move around drivers regularly to maximize their hours on the road. Can get confusing who is going to be actually driving your freight until morning of shipment
