FTL, LTL, drayage, reefer, flatbed, and expedited — actively dispatched by people who pick up the phone. Importers, Amazon FBA sellers, manufacturers, and 3PLs ship with us because every load is managed end-to-end, not handed off.
No mystery, no middleman runaround. A four-step process you'll actually understand the first time.
Origin, destination, equipment, pickup date. Form or phone — your call. We don't need a freight class to start a conversation.
Authority, insurance, safety score, and lane experience checked on every carrier. Not just whoever's cheapest — whoever can actually run it.
Rate confirmation, BOL, and pickup details — handled by us. You get carrier info, driver contact, and ETA before the truck moves.
Check-calls at pickup, mid-transit, and delivery. If something changes, you hear it from us first — not the receiver.
We don't try to be everything to everyone. These are the verticals we've built lanes, processes, and carrier pools around.
Containers off PortMiami and Port Everglades. Chassis coordination, free-time tracking, transload to dry van for inland delivery.
Drayage Services →Appointment-based deliveries to AMZL, ATL, MIA, FTW, and every FBA destination. Floor-loaded or palletized — we know the receiver windows.
FBA Freight →Steady FTL and LTL lane programs. Dedicated capacity options, monthly volume pricing, and one accountable point of contact.
Lane Programs →LTL and partial truckload from your 3PL to retail DCs. Appointment booking, accessorials, and shipment visibility — without a fleet of your own.
LTL & Partial →Co-loader capacity, drayage overflow, and white-glove project freight when your existing carriers are tapped out. Non-circumvention respected.
Partner Capacity →Temperature-logged reefer, pre-cooled trailers, and food-grade carriers. Cold-chain documentation handled.
Reefer Freight →What you get with a boutique broker — without the boutique excuses.
You won't get passed between three "account managers" and a dispatch queue. The same person who quotes you stays on the load until it delivers.
Dispatch is 24/7/365. If your container's stuck at the terminal at 9pm on a Saturday — call us. That's not an exception; it's the job.
FMCSA authority, insurance documents reviewed, SaferWatch safety score, and lane experience verified before every booking. No "first load with us, fingers crossed."
The rate we quote is the rate you pay. If scope changes (extra stop, detention, accessorial), you hear about it before it hits the invoice — not after.
PortMiami, Port Everglades, the Southeast distribution corridor, and the Latin American gateway. We know the terminals and the chassis pools — not from a map.
You don't chase us for ETAs. Pickup confirmation, in-transit check-call, delivery notification. If you're running a lane program, you get a daily status summary.
If your question isn't here, call dispatch — we'll talk it through.
Most quotes go out within 2 hours during business hours. For urgent freight or expedited loads, our dispatch is 24/7 — call or text and you'll get someone real.
Every carrier we book has active FMCSA authority, insurance documents we review before booking, a SaferWatch safety score we check before every load, and a clean record on the lanes they run. We don't book a carrier we don't know.
Yes — drayage is one of our specialties. We coordinate chassis, terminal appointments, free-time tracking, and transload to dry van for inland delivery. We work with Miami's major chassis pools and know the terminal operators.
Yes. We move FBA freight floor-loaded or palletized, book appointments through Amazon Carrier Central / Relay, and meet the appointment windows at all major FBA destinations.
We'll quote a single LTL pallet or a 53' FTL — there's no minimum. The right service depends on the shipment, and we'll tell you honestly whether LTL, PTL, or FTL is the right move.
We earn the margin between what the shipper pays and what we pay the carrier. We don't hide that. What we promise is the rate we quote is the rate you pay — no surprise re-rating after the load is booked unless scope changes (extra stop, detention, accessorials), and we explain any change before it hits the invoice.
