I have 2 skids of BBQ sauce (no meat), 3319 lbs to pick up Friday Jan 26th, Don Mills, ON and deliver into GFS Plant City Florida, Feb 1st. This is a protect from freeze load so could use a heated van or reefer. please email dispatch@gtlinc.ca Thanks
 
Thank you very much for the referral. I did try them earlier today but they were full. I had a truck booked then got bumped as a "regular" customer added to the truck .
 
Erb for temp control LTL? Yes, they can probably do it, but you better get you big cheque book out. If you are not a regular customer of theirs, expect to pay large.
 
Yes I have received a couple rates and they were very high...too high to use...maybe I will pass on them.
 
Try Heritage Trucklines in Ayr or you may have to get creative, find someone with heat to KY or TN and then put it on a US LTL Carrier for final delivery. Heat is a very hot commodity, we got 65 heated trailers and they are going all the time and sorry we do not do much LTL so we can't help you out.
 
Thanks, heritage says they can book but can never guarantee you won't get bumped if their regular customers decide to put more product on the truck...I never thought of including a usa carrier but I am pretty sure for this customer the monies would not work. I really do appreciate your assistance.

If they had any brains at all Heritage or Blue Line they'd simply say.."sorry no room". Telling you that you may get bumped by a customer who is more IMPORTANT to them is insulting. It would be like you/me booking a new carrier and then telling him he might get bumped off the load if one of our "regulars" shows up. Bourassa told me the same thing once.. I told her I would never trouble her with my freight again, and I've remained true to my word..

Regular Customer or Joe Blow Scum Hummer - you all pay the same : )
Unless of course they are fortunate enough to talk to me
 
Jack hole, glad to hear that Erb now treats everyone the same! In all honesty, it has been quite a while since we asked for an Erb LTL rate, but back then, the number was equivalent to " go f**k yourself". Glad to hear that attitude has changed.

If you need a rate it's likely best you ask for the Donkey at x3280 : )
Not that we are looking for extra outbound but LTL sometimes can work.
