How to find a good trucking company.

I use multiple resources (TTR being my primary source or information) In addition to this site i also check the CSA scores on any given company right at the source- The United States Department of Transportation (DOT) at this site www.csa.fmcsa.dot.gov -all you need is the trucking company's DOT number, found by simply doing a google search for the company's name and dot number.Then go to "carrier search".


Next you can check for any consumer complaints that include shippers, receivers, past and present employees at www.bbb.org or the Better Business Bureau. Just choose the usa site and enter the company's name for a search. Most company's have multiple addresses so instead of choosing the one you "think" it is, just go with the one that highlights "multiple addresses found". I've discovered several complaints on various companies like C.R. England (poor service and billing/collections issues) There you'll find company ratings that range from "A-F"

 

Also, keep in mind that "no news" is "good news"
