After all these glowing reviews, I have just submitted a request for shipping an LMTV from Bragg to Mass. Trying to get a handle on shipping costs before I pull the trigger on one of these beasts. I will report back with my findings. Is this company just a broker or do they actually do the shipping?

Joey was great to work with. He called me and coordinated a time for the driver to pick up. He also followed up and straightened out a misunderstanding with the trucking company. He called me the following day to make sure the pickup had been made.
If I ever need anything big shipped, I will be calling Joey.
Expect it to be in the $2.70 to $3.30 a mile range for a M1078 or up to $3.50 a mile for a M1083/M1088. Shipping north of DC gets to be a little pricey due to the Toll cost on a 5 axle setup. Specially since it is tolls from Baltimore all the way to Mass pretty much. Then also the traffic makes it go up as well.

I have used them twice, once for my deuce and then on my hmmwv. Very good communication and quick! Prices are good in my opinion too.

Hi,
USF just hauled my M916A3 from Florida to Michigan. They did a great job! Check them out if you need something big hauled (or small).

Last time they moved a conex for me (Nov.2018 ), the man in charge was Joey's partner/coworker, Jon Raum.
BTW, service was 1st class, as always!
And back in February this year when I emailed them (both) for a freight quote I noticed that it was him who responded, and Joey was not copy mailed in that reply mail.
So now I may have the explanation. Thanks Wes.

I dealt with Nick, and I have absolutely no complaints. He did exactly what he said he was going to do, he did it on time, and the communication was stellar.
We had a minor challenge (not Nick's fault), and he went above and beyond the call of duty in offering to get it resolved for me.
I have an extensive and very successful background in the private sector, and in my professional opinion, Nick is a good guy to do business with.

Nice to see a Positive note. We always seem to just see the negative. It's good to get a recommendation for a company when we are looking for service.
