"Forward is more consistent with better miles"
"Forward far exceeds all of the others.... The terminal-to-terminal deliveries, the drop & hook no-touch freight, the pay, and Forward is more consistent with better miles. We've made money at other places, but the money here is the best."
"We'd definitely tell other drivers to come to Forward."
Teresa and Benny | Owner Operators
"We love the way we're treated here. We love the drop & hook terminal to terminal deliveries. Very rarely do we get customer loads. They're really good about giving us drop & hook loads that go to Forward terminals rather than outside locations."
