Does anyone deal with these guys? We did a load that required a meat inspection, WEL didn’t tell us and about the inspection until we neared the border, as a result our truck spent the weekend at the border. They don’t want to talk about detention charges until after we deliver, I have a bad feeling about these people.
 
The google reviews are less than appealing, plus, anyone saying they'll discuss detention upon delivery is most likely blowing smoke... we've all heard that b.s. before...

We had the same promise of “pay you after delivery” from Trinity last month and didn’t get a dime for waiting at the border after we delivered the load expecting Trinity could be trusted.

Probably get the .. Well we do not want to go after the customer for waiting time in this slow economy. You know just trying to keep the costs down for the customer.

Page 6 of the douchebag broker handbook is all about how to screw carriers in slow times.. No idea if this will be WEL,s MO but it seems to be starting that way. You reefer guys I would go nuts having to put up with the crap you folks do,, Lumpers inspections and just the places they deliver yuk...
 
It was a dry load, we don’t have reefers and that’s why we were surprised it needed a meat inspection which WEL sprung on us on the way to the border.
 
pet food is it's own level of scary
It can be we have done it for years and a couple times CFIA can be a pita but never had meat inspection and I have over 300 sku's of animal feed we bring in on a regular basis. Was it wet food? Trying too figure out why meat as never in 20 years of the client and pet food ever had meat inspection?

WEL took responsibility for not informing us the load needed a meat inspection and agreed to pay the weekend layover and all extra charges. Looks like they are a good company, I will update this post after we recieve payment …… thanks to everyone who replied.
