    Are you doing expedite now with a 24/7 dispatch (real 24/7 not some guy waking up when phone rings)? Before we joined we had some very strong relationships that helped. Without that it would not have worked. Biggest key is that if you are not an expedite company then you will have a lot of work to do to make it work. And plan on having to replace drivers. It is a different animal and your typical OTR driver will not be willing to accept what is expected of them. And one bad driver will kill you in this. Tight knit community.

    Email me your contact info and we can talk.

    Do they have any loads appropriate for a dually and a gooseneck trailer? I'm considering using my truck and getting out of my local gig.

    I am not seeing much on the system for that but couple good companies that are hotshot. Would be happy to connect you with them if you like.
