    looking for new company

    Golden lugnut needs some assistance....

    Ya’ll probably thought the Golden lugnut got over torqued, lost his shine and was now just another rusty expediter lost in the potholes of American highways. NOT!!! This year has met and exceeded our expectations and as a result we are going to expand, for spring 2013, into Canada. So…...

    Where is the freight?

    Quote, May Report from Sylectus: The info provided by Sylectus needs to be clarified for expediters on EO beyond the numbers reflecting increasing line-haul revenue. At first glance the year over year rate increases look wonderful, but if you could breakdown the type of truck...
