Check out Fedex Custom Critical...Tristate..or check out expediting forums.All have contractors and most keep a list of them.We drove for FECC for a couple of years,and really enjoyed it.Big difference in OTR for big trucks.If willing to purchase a new sprinter,check out Load 1,appears to be a really good company with a owner who is on one of the expediting forums.

Most run on a Class B....no log books...easier parking,most have adapted their units to suit them,

oldvanner, spuddatruckdriver and TheFreightTrain Thank this. -
Yes stay away from All Types Expediting. If you lack the experience, I reccommend driving for a fleet owner in their Sprinter to make sure this type of trucking is for you! If after 6mos-1yr it's for you, then research the different carriers out there. From what I've heard and read in other forums, Load 1 and its owner John Elliott are a great company to lease on with. He has some cargo vans, but now only accepts sprinters or cube trucks. I know he has a few automotive accounts where all they want is a sprinter or cube because of its heighth requirement. The only thing I will say good about All Types is their website is very informative to research information on getting into expediting.
TheFreightTrain Thanks this. -
