Very easy to get this carrier setup with us. Dispatch provided photo of truck to confirm when booking. Proof of delivery was provided by driver without having to request. Everything went great - will continue to hire.

We booked BSL Express Trucking on a dry van load. Jim and Sergei were responsive to our requests for status updates. No issues making appointment times. They provided a 53' swing door trailer as requested and their equipment was reliable. Excellent job by a dependable carrier.
