My fr8star rep is always awesome to work with. He helps me put the load together, gather the bids and then I just chose the best option. The shipping firms have always been great to work with as well!

Everything went very smooth. The trailer was supposed to have ramps and didn't, We were able to unload with the forklift. BAH tried to collect COD after the load had been paid for in advance. Would highly recommend FR8STAR.
