We produce and ship textile. I usually use full truckload (FTL) but we can’t fill it up all the way and gotta pay for the empty space. Do you guys know of any good alternatives?

    I f$&king hate Unishippers. I shipped a pallet from SoCal to Denver for a show, got some boxes out and still went with the same weight and class although it might have been 60-70 lbs less when I shipped the same pallet to Chicago. They came back saying that the weight was 300 lbs more than original. How the f&$k that happened when I took the boxes out. I have not used them for 8 years or so now. Try broker company like Honest Freight (honestfreightusa.com) or Priority1. I compare rates between three brokers (I forgot the third one right now as business has been super slow and everything is saved in my work computer and I am in home right now). I have seen that Priority1 always comes a little bit cheaper. DM me if you need some help with LTL side. I can give you the person o dealt with. Honest Freight was acquired by TForce which used to be UPS Freight. I know so much since I have been dealing with LTL for close to 15 years.
