    I've noticed CHR's lower rates tend to be higher than their competitors most times. Robinson is one of my favorites they have some good people there too. They bring their A game to negotiations always I respect that.

    One thing about CHR. I've never not been paid the agreed upon amount or stiffed out of my $$$. As a small business where I must extend significant credit to those I haul for, knowing I'm gonna get paid is worth something, and I'll trade a penny or so per mile for that confidence any day.

    You better be in a good spot when your negotiating with CHR..... As another Fellow said they bring their "A" game into every negotiation.... But the other thing is they don't mess around when you have them by the balls... Name your rate within reason n It's usually a done deal on the spot.... Do what you say you'll do n they pay on time everytime... No matter what the rate is!!!
