Great service, and follow up, in dealing with a sudden, unusual request to deliver a document for me. Chris was incredible to deal with. Customer service could never be better, thank you!

Horrible experience. I made less than $6/hr in the month of April 2020 after fuel and tax expenses. They hung up on me when I asked for my final pay. They owe me from May 1 to May 22, 2020 and refuse to pay me before June 10. I was hired to make $3500-$4500 a month. Minimum wage pays way more.

They tend to park their hideous yellow vans in neighborhood streets. someone needs to tell the driver of HJ-4786 that he's blocking a portion of a driveway. I'll wait 24hrs to see if he moves it or arrange City of Surrey to ticket the vehicle. City of Surrey parking bylaw states you cannot park within 1.5M of driveway. This guy's front end is within the driveway opening. no respect for the neighbours.

These guys were absolutely fantastic - highly recommend! They took my call on the weekend and managed to organize a last minute dedicated courier for the next day. Chris who I spoke to even went in to the office on the weekend to make all arrangements which was above and beyond. The courier service was on time and delivered the package safely to its destination.

Man on the phone was very polite and helpful, sorry forgot your name... but thanks for being very patient with me! Company has very good rates comparable to other couriers. Looking forward to doing business soon.

So my rush delivery over a day late and I stayed late to receive it. And you didn't even communicate it would be. Then you promised it in 45 minutes only to tell me in 45 minutes that you needed 30 more.

WORST SERVICE! And you can't even call and let me know?
