1) First off, i rescind the award for best appearing because Southeastern uses driver cameras. i had so much faith in them.
i, begrudgingly award best appearing to fed ex frt . i'll put it on the table: i don't like y'all. You're the main ones taking our cake (although in all fairness, i should also be mad at our own company for LETTING you take our cake, but that's another matter.) We're Bruce Lee, you're Chuck Norris. We're Washington, you're the Dallas Cowboys, We're G.Gordon Liddy, you're John Dean, We're Peter Griffin, you're the Chicken etc.
i'll flat-butt tell you. i don't like your company.
2) This whole thread is stupid. i apologize for even starting it. And i officially withdraw my participation in it.intrepidor, Bob Dobalina, McUzi and 1 other person Thank this. -

Those usually come with a declared value on the BOL and we won’t haul anything declared at more than $5.00 a pound.BigDog Trucker Thanks this. -
Update:
R&L brought my skid of glass tile totally intact and looking like it just came off the shipper's dock. Luckily the shipper did their part and wrapped it well, too.
Driver was a cool younger dude in a straight truck with an electric pallet jack. Since they have to buy their own, it cost him $3,000, but he said it was totally worth it. He brought it up my driveway and just inside the garage door without complaint. I tipped him $20 because I always wanted to do that for a fellow LTL driver!
He said, "what's this for?" and I said, "because I know how hard your job can be and everything you deal with on a daily basis."
Anyway, it was a great experience and I'm super happy with R&L's service.viper822004, Cardfan89, MACK E-6 and 1 other person Thank this. -
I’m not wild about those electric jacks due to the diversity of different firewood freight gets packed on. If I can’t move it with a manual jack and my trusty oak 2x4, I don’t need to be messing with it.

I just tell people to look the other way when I unload there 85inch tv - it's wider than my lift gate and so I have to like slide it/slam it from trailer onto the liftgate via the liftgate switch.
Also you're freaking insane buying a $3,000+ tv like what the hell man. Best part is 4k isn't even viable in my area because Comcast uses data caps.Texas_hwy_287 Thanks this. -
MACK E-6 and Texas_hwy_287 Thank this.
