Driver reviews
Very lovely people!
Broker called and said it’s an urgent load I have to get to the PU ASAP I got here at 2 pm and right it’s 10 pm and got no door yet, they’re slow and nice all I can say.
Unbelievable unprofessional people 🤦♂️<br>5-6 office employees do absolutely nothing to speeding process. 5 hours to be loaded if you be on time.<br>At least clean restroom.<br>No overnight.
