05FAQ

Good questions.

Do you work to our routing guide?

Send it with the first quote request. Appointment windows, pallet specifications, labelling and OTIF penalties all change the cost and the schedule, and we would rather price them in than discover them at a receiving door.

Can you handle pallet exchange?

Ask before you tender the load. Exchange programs run on accounts, and we will tell you plainly whether we hold the right one rather than leaving the driver to sort it out at the dock.

Do I need a temperature-controlled trailer?

If your freight is shelf-stable and has no freeze risk, no — and you should not be paying a reefer rate to move it on a dry van. If there is a freeze risk in winter, say so at quote time. Protect-from-freeze is a different conversation from chilled, and it is usually a cheaper one.

Can you floor-load?

Yes. Floor-loaded freight takes longer at both ends, so tell us up front and we will build the loading and unloading time into the schedule rather than discovering it at the dock.
