In trucking and logistics, you expect challenges—tight schedules, delays, long hours. What you don’t expect (or at least hope to avoid) is having to chase your own money after the job is done.
That’s exactly the experience I had working with Vettori Inc.
I completed two loads that were clearly booked as LTL. Nothing fancy, nothing rushed—just standard shipments with standard timelines (you know, the kind the industry has been using forever). These were not expedited loads, not team service, and definitely not “drop everything and deliver overnight” situations.
Of course, one load ended up being delivered slightly late. It happens. We addressed it like professionals, and they even confirmed—in writing—that a $300 deduction would settle it.
Simple enough, right?
Apparently not.
Instead of deducting $300, they decided to hold onto about $3,300 USD. Quite the creative interpretation of basic math.
Meanwhile, they were paid for the loads. Just to be clear—money came in on their end. It just didn’t go out on mine.
And, as if on cue, concerns about “issues” and “problems” started appearing… right around the time payment was due. Funny how that works.
At this point, what should have been a routine transaction has turned into a legal matter. Counsel is involved, and small claims court is the next stop—all over money that was already earned.
Getting paid? That’s where things seem to get… complicated.
So document everything, keep your emails, and maybe brush up on your patience—because you might need it more than your driving skills.
