I've used XPO as a broker. Rate aren't great. But they addressed what I needed at the time.

i've used XPO as a broker as well. not the best rates but far from bad. the money is there fast as well.

I am not familiar with either company. If you have the funds available, you might be better off getting your own authority. Having your own authority gives you the option of finding other sources for freight you may not have available when you lease to someone else.

Thanks for the in put. We do plan on eventually getting our own authority. The second load our truck downed due to the eaton trans. We are grateful xpo stepped up with the money to pay for it. On the road again and so far no complaints. They keep us running weekly pay and nearly 2 a mile. We will get the experience we need!
