I have used these guys on 3 occasions and had issues on two of them. On the final time I used them, they decided to charge almost 3 times the typical rate I get on deliveries from the port warehouse to my warehouse. When asked to explain, they gave a remarkably unbelievable excuse. I have used a few other companies for freight service in the Vancouver area all with acceptable to good quality service and fair prices. I just wouldn't risk it with these guys. You probably won't be to pleased with the added frustrations or the surprising invoices.
