Watched a guy at the Phoenix airport get quoted $1,400 to ship his truck to Denver
I was picking up my sister at Sky Harbor last month and ended up chatting with a guy in the cell phone lot who was waiting on a carrier. He showed me the quote he got at the counter inside, $1,400 to move a Tacoma to Denver, and said the online brokers had him at $850 for the same route. He went with the cheaper one and the driver showed up 4 days late with no heads up, which is why he was stuck there waiting. I've booked three shipments myself and two of them went fine, one sat in a yard in Barstow for a week while I called every day. Now I always ask for the pickup window in writing and a dispatcher's direct number before I pay a deposit. What's the longest you've waited past the pickup date before you gave up on a carrier?

That dispatcher's direct number tip is huge, mine sat 11 days past pickup once lol.
