Good carrier. On time to pick up and delivery appointments. Dispatcher provided great updates, locations and ETA by the driver proactively due to no tracking. Strong communication and driver was also on time to pick up and delivery appointments.

I worked with Sutton as a service partner for a few years before I started using them as a shipper. TJ is great to work with, as they extended the service area they maintained consistent service and excellent communication.
