    Im surprised daeske didnt come buy us out. They have all the flatbed outfits up in this area. Im not sure if wilson owns the dsv van division or just contracts with them . Also see market express pulling dsv trailer up in portland area

    My fast delivery at Costco was offset by 2 hours waiting for a load, and 3 hours waiting for a washout. ###### I need a beer and my purple bed.

    Arizona yard work consists of moving sand from one end of the yard to the other. ;)

    Wilson is who I "drive" for, used to be DSV until about 1 year ago. Prior to that it was Market Transport. DSV (van) no longer exists, they have some warehousing/logistics warehouses down in SoCal (Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, and Commerce) but we don't work with them any longer. Prior to buying DSV, Wilson took over a small outfit out of Yakima and one from Idaho (can't remember the name) training company ...no matter....

    they are the biggest in Europe. Watch the crash videos on YouTube, you will see DSV trucks all over the place....usually not crashing. I heard they have the best safety rating in all of Europe.

    The couple I've spoke to were pretty friendly, and they were interested in how things went with the PRIME side of operations. Actually had 1 come over as I was having to blindside at the TA in Denver the other morning and gave me an extra set of eyes.
