    You don't have them on your list but Melton is another flatbed company you might want to look at. I was always bringing or taking freight out of the northeast.

    I know how that goes! Just didn't want to see you bypass something that could be a good fit! There are threads on here about both of those flatbed outfits, along with a couple of others.
