Road King Express booked a flatbed load with us. Pickup and delivery went smoothly. They sent in a trailer that was in good condition. Electronic tracking was turned on throughout the trip. Professional crew. We look forward to working with them in the future.

They've done 5 loads for us since 2018 and we've never had any issues. They've always picked up and delivered on time. They offer to tracking, if needed. Drivers usually send us a photo of the load after it's on the truck. We'd hire them again.
