This team came in with a solid offer that was hard to turn away. We are lucky they did, because they ran the load well and for a great rate. It has been some time since we have worked with them, but would book with them again.

This carrier is okay, the have a gap for improvement in the communication, as the tracking was not consistent and they didn't have a strong communication on email or text messages. Apart from that, I would use them again.
