This company is a fraud for sure. They called me on a load with a driver 15 miles out. Kept wanting to get 1/2 payment upfront and the rest at delivery. I told them do a good job and i'll pay all of it after delivery. Jumped through hoops for them and they are now ignoring calls and emails with no updates on truck status. This is due to being a bad egg in the industry.

i was booking a load with them and when i asked if they were double brokering, they hung up instantly. When i called back and try confronting them about double brokering they hung up again. Not a trustworthy company.

"Carlo" called in trying to book a hotshot load. He was unable to tell me where driver was getting offloaded and had no driver name and number. They also have a freight guard report on 411 for double brokering and threatening to hold freight hostage. LOUD CALL CENTER.
