This company will lie to you and then not pay after you deliver. WARNING do not haul for them. Notice the only good reviews are people that work there and scam along with them!

Booked a load on Saturday, You can look from my pictures how they described the load. Sent me rate con with 1 pm pick, I asked them if we are 100% good to load by 4 pm as they described and they confirmed. Guess what, I show there at 3 pm and shipper told my driver they stop to ship at 2 pm. Called them 5 times they ignored my calls and emails and I still can't get any compensation from them. Carriers pls make sure to check everything twice before booking with them. They messed up my entire weekend, don't let them mess up yours.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Carriers stay away from them. Every dishonest and rude people. Will lie to you about appointment times and then screw you over by not paying detention. Just stay away.

They book your truck and cancel. Read reviews before booking. We were booking a load with Eric and i mentioned that their credit was good but the reviews not so good. We booked the load, and minutes later he CANCELED claiming shipper does not have enough product, when in fact sold for less. DO NOT USE or USE at your own risk. Not worth the time. Another trash broker.

They book my truck, I came from 89miles away. Truck book but not in use. I request for TONU they give me 150, that's not worth for 89miles and waste my whole day. NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

They book and look for a cheaper rate. Took a load with Bryan McBroom on a hot backhaul lane and he found a cheaper rate. Gave me the "Oh my other dispatcher booked it" after I had already filled out the packet and was looking for a rate con. Don't waste your time on brokers like this.

Overall a great place to work, just kind of misleading, trucks on web site is not what you get, husband left a job he had for 17 yrs to be home every night and weekends off with this company, but he was put in a 14 yr old truck with probably 2 mil plus miles and lives up to it's name he says is a Freightliner and is a rattle trap can hear every outside noise, said guess he would have to deal with it for a yr as that will be close to retirement time, if he makes it went from a 2017 Volvo 780 auto his boss got him brand new into a Freightliner hardly no room and can barely stand straight up in it.
