This team was antsy to get the pickup and check with us before arriving early. They were given the green light and had no issues at any point during this trip and were very easy to work with.

Sun Express ran a reefer food load. Mark and Youssef had good equipment and maintained temp throughout transit. Electronic tracking was turned on by the driver. They provided good communication throughout the trip. Great job by this carrier.

Took a tough flatbed load for us in January, was booked last minute but the carrier did a great job. First time using them and would use again, on time, no issues.

It was a pleasure to work with this carrier on this load. The communication from the dispatcher was solid. We received the necessary updates. The driver provided excellent tracking from start to finish. Looking forward to working with them again.
