Questions Shippers Ask

Rates, lanes, insurance, accessorials and claims — the detail our dispatch desk gives before a load is booked.

How are rates set?

Rates are quoted by lane, equipment and weight, with fuel priced from the weekly national average. Send origin, destination, commodity and pickup window and our desk returns a firm all-in number the same business day. Committed volume moves to a contract rate.

Which lanes do you run, and do you take one-off loads?

Our core network is the Midwest, Texas Triangle and the Southeast corridors, with scheduled runs to both coasts. One-off and spot loads are welcome wherever we have a truck repositioning — ask and we will tell you honestly whether we can cover it.

What insurance and cargo limits do you carry?

We carry $1,000,000 auto liability and $250,000 cargo coverage as standard, with higher limits available by endorsement for high-value freight. Certificates are issued to shippers and brokers on request before the first pickup.

What accessorials are charged?

Detention bills after two free hours at the dock, then hourly. Layover, tarping, lumper fees, driver assist and redelivery are charged at published flat rates, listed on every quote so nothing appears later on the invoice.

How are claims filed, and how long do they take?

Note the exception on the delivery receipt, photograph the freight and email our claims desk within five days. We acknowledge within one business day and settle the majority of claims within thirty days of receiving the paperwork.

How do brokers, 3PLs and distributors onboard?

Partners include brokers, 3PLs, distributors and private fleets. Send your packet, W-9 and insurance certificate; we return our authority and banking details, and a dedicated dispatcher is assigned before your first tender.

Do you provide proof of delivery and tracking?

Every load is tracked by ELD and a live link is shared at dispatch. Signed proof of delivery is scanned at the dock and emailed within two hours of unloading, with photographs when the receiver requests them.

What equipment can you supply?

Over 180 trucks and 400 dry van, reefer and flatbed trailers. Temperature-controlled freight runs on continuous-monitor reefers; oversized and stepdeck moves are planned with permits and escorts arranged by our compliance team.
