This carrier recovered a last minute fall out. The service was great but they made us pay for it.

Summa has run a few lanes for us during DOT rush week. Good carrier with strong communication throughout.

Dislikes

Like other carriers, they charged an arm and a leg and took major advantage of pricing during DOT week. Hard to develop long term relationships with carriers like that.

Likes

This carrier is in our top 5 when it comes to expedited team loads. They deliver on time, prompt communication, and professional drivers.

Dislikes

The rates are a little higher for the typical spot broker, but for those who run production line expedites, the price is worth the service.
