Call a trucking broker

Call a trucking broker
And compare prices. Just because one company is charging you something, it doesn't mean that's the going rate.
I'm not who you think I am.

You may be better off using more of a local guy than a broker. I find that brokers are good for longer distances, but some times the smaller local guys are better. A lot depends on the conditions of the pick up and the conditions of the delivery, time etc...

You can PM me if you have more detail and I may have a few numbers for you...

8 pallets should fit on a 26 ft straight truck. Find anyone comfortable with driving one and rent a refrigerated truck

I actually need something similar but for a shipment coming from Europe. Anyone have suggestions for a good shipping company?

its already been done its called cargomatic. I've been using them actually a driver I met from them for over 2 years.

Thats why this wont work as people will find a driver they like and just go deal straight with him and cut out the middle man
