Took a over a week to get here and i believe driver is responsible for loading and unloading which we had to drive off trailer. Not happy

I worked with Joe on getting a backhoe I bought at auction set up to be picked up and delivered. He got me the lowest rate he could find. Have no idea how the broker that took the bid will be yet but so far has been really good to work with. Now just to see how long it will take to get it delivered
I had a little bit of trouble entering the address of the pickup location, the field would revert to the town and state, it would not let me enter the street address.
On the dimensions of the load it was confusing to me as I tried to put a diameter of a tire in in inches and it would automatically change it to feet and inches. It took me a minute to figure out why my load dimension kept changing.
A heads up on the way those fields work would be helpful for first time or like me second time users.
I have yet to receive my freight. I am up against the two week removal from the site, and all I get is promises. You have already received partial payment, and not delivered my equipment yet. May have to call another freight company.
Load was not as ready as I was told, trailer needed flaps, air in tires, and two tail lights. The driver patiently waited for the repairs and trailer was delivered a day early!
Staff was great and very professional, they answered all my questions, great job, will use them again for sure

Please only quote when you have a definite time frame for pickup and delivery. As it stands, I'm awaiting my date of delivery because you apparently get up to 10 business days to deliver. That's not very good.

Simple to use and communicate, however the messaging could use improvement when messaging the haulers direction from their bids etc.

Picked up load on Thursday morning from auction yard and delivered Sunday night, around 7:00 in the dark. Transport distance was about 300 miles. Driver took photos of damage at auction yard, that auction yard caused, which was found after delivery. Photos allowed responsible party to take ownership and pay for repairs. Overall satisfied with delivery, good communication, but wish they could have delivered sooner and during daylight hours.

I have had to be more involved in this freight transaction compared to my last auction transaction with another auction house. What I mean by that. Typically, I just pay the freight amount and auction house contact arranges everything once I give the details. This one has been more time consuming. Not sure what the dedicated account rep does in this case. Price was fair so I was good to take on some additional time on my end. They did sneak in a convenience fee that I wasn't expecting. It wasn't too much so I did t worry about it. Freight broker is good to deal with so far but load hasn't been picked up and delivered yet.
