Yesterday I delivered a load just north of Shreveport, LA and got on the Truckloads app to look for another load. Wow! There were about a dozen flatbed loads all posted by Freight Shipping, LLC with some eye popping rates. The long hauls were north of $3/mile and shorter hauls around $9/mile.
The postings all noted we had to book online at a website starting with tblslogostics.com. My dispatcher tried to confirm if they were a qualified broker for our company. We both tried calling the phone number, but got a message saying to book online. Trying to get to the web address for the load was impossible. Google searches for either company returned nothing worthwhile.
Then this morning I look at loads on Truckloads again and all the loads disappeared.
Has anyone dealt with either of these companies? Are they legit? I ask because the message when I called made me almost think it was some sort of scam.
Freight Shipping, LLC aka TBLS Logistics

If it sounds shady, it probably is. Given the circumstances, it sounds prettttty shady.
Midwest Trucker, Dave_in_AZ and Lepton1 Thank this. -
I've used Truckloads to book a number of backhauls. This is the first time I have ever seen this broker. Then they suddenly disappear the next day.
Fishy indeed.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
They are fake, i was talking about them on a facebook group. Turns out they are advertising for their load board. And no thise rates are not on their board
Lepton1 Thanks this. -
Thanks for the confirmation. I wonder if Truckloads received feedback and blocked them. It was literally about eight hours from Friday night to Saturday morning, from over a dozen postings to none.

You are welcome, they have been the talk of a few groups on fb recently. They post extreme rates and just recently changed the name too the new one. They used too go by transportation logistics, even if you reach them by phone all they say is you need too sign up and book on their board.Lepton1 Thanks this.
