Posted this on B&I board. Posting here for additional eyes.

We ship LTL a couple times per week currently, with volume increasing. Typical skids are 24" x 48" x 72". Weight approx 1000 lbs. Our current broker isn't reliable and professional enough for our needs, and we have zero luck with freight companies when it comes to consistent communication.

If any good Ags are or know any quality reps for this type of ongoing service, would love to do some business. Thanks in advance.

We are looking at expanding into e-commerce over the next 12 months. Shipping grills and accessories so need a good broker than can help us get set up.

Shoot me an email if you are in the business or know someone. Thanks!

I own and operate a transportation company based out of College Station. I'd like to give you a call to learn more about your LTL operations and why you are looking to make a change.

LTL is tricky business and requires effective communication between the broker and LTL provider to minimize late pickups/deliveries and additional accessorial charges. You need someone who is experienced with higher volumes LTL who knows how to communicate directly with LTL provider dispatchers and drivers.

Please shoot me an email with your phone number to wadams@coveredlogistics.com and I will give you a call.

Thank you!

So in my current role at work, I help coordinate the shipping department, sales, and accounting. I get callls every day from various brokers and asset based carriers trying to "earn my business." Some young female called and started her canned intro speech. When she came to the part that made me laugh, I had to stop her. She actually said "Let me be your hardest load handling specialist." Poor thing has no idea what she said or how it was taken....

She played you like a fiddle.

Not so much... since she worked for a company I used to work for, I asked her if she knew Becky or Adam (two former coworkers that I knew still worked in the same office). When she said yes and Becky was her team lead. I started texting Becky as I was talking to the newbie and in a moment or two, I ended the call by telling the newbie to review her call tape with Becky later.

A couple of days later, I get a text from Becky and when the newbie heard her own voice saying that and my audible snicker, she got beet red and realized what she said...

"Let me be your hardest load handling specialist."
should have followed with "that sounds good but I want to make sure you're in it for the long haul. Last time I built a long term relationship with a load handling specialist, I found that my load wasn't handled with the same tenacity as before which prompted me to look elsewhere for other load handling specialist."
