I don't think it would be appropriate to give any concrete rating yet, but so far not too bad. We are just in the beginning stages of my experience. Once everything is done from start to finish I will be glad to submit an accurate rating along with some general comments.
Auction ended Thursday, I called to list shipping. Normally I get quotes almost immediately. I did not receive any quotes Thursday so I called Fried to find out if the listing was up there. I spoke to said the listing is there he didn't know why I wasn't getting. Information said he would fix that nothing happened Saturday, Saturday Sunday Monday. Call back I think it was on Monday with the order finally was set for Tuesday. I specifically said do not deliver before Friday I'll be out of town and won't be able to receive it. I talked to the trucking company Wednesday. They gave me the phone number for the truck driver called him and he had picked up the load and was delivering it Thursday morning. My plans change, so I was able to come and get to the farm to receive it and unload it, he said they had no record of it being delivered Friday at the earliest. I have never had a problem with shipping. It's always been scheduled accurately and on time.
The truck driver was great on time will do bussines again thank you.

Here to help!

How FR8Star Works
1. Build the load. Customers tell FR8Star about their load, including its origin and shipping destination.
2. Get an instant estimate. Customers request firm bids from the transport companies. FR8Star provides instant estimates at no charge to the customer. Estimates are supplemented by FR8Star's wide array of transport companies and up-to-date industry data.
3. Compare transport bids. Bids placed are completely transparent, with prices reflecting the total cost to move the shipment, so there are no hidden costs.
4. Award the load. Once a bid is accepted, FR8Star will release the customer's contact information to the winning bidder. The bidder contacts the customer to confirm details, match the load with the right truck, and make payment arrangements.
That's all there is to it!
