    Response:Thank you Mike for your business and review. Pricing can vary for different situations - yours was one that needed immediate attention and therefore required any expedited rate. Although p/up was delayed -delivery was still in time as requested to meet the vessel- which was key for you. You and Donna were great to work with and we are happy everything turned out as you wanted. Thanks again and we look forward to future business , better time frames, and great rates. [ view ]

    Response:Thank you for your review -we appreciate every one of them. Even if they are not as glowing -it helps us improve. Bears Transport does give a 2 day window on pick up and delivery and we let our customers know you will not hear from the driver until 24 hrs in advance because after all this is the transport industry so just like planes and trains the trucks do get delayed as well. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our customer and strive for satisfaction. [ view ]
