 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Been trucking for about 10 years now, so I’ve seen my share of shady companies. Honestly, these guys are one of the most legit outfits I’ve ever worked with. The dispatch team actually knows what they’re doing. They don’t just throw garbage loads at you; they actually listen to where you want to go and what kind of schedule you need. Everything is transparent, no hidden BS, and they’re really good at negotiating solid rates. Communication is always smooth and they actually treat you with respect. If you’re looking for a reliable company that won’t jerk you around and looks out for its drivers, I highly recommend them.

From the start, communication was clear and professional. Their team is organized, punctual, and genuinely cares about getting the job done right. The trucks were clean and well-maintained, and the drivers were courteous and respectful throughout the entire process. You can tell they take pride in their work and value their clients. I would definitely recommend TA Trans to anyone needing reliable freight and logistics services. Keep up the great work!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sold my dry van after talking to recruiter and a few O/O at TA Trans Inc .  It’s been 4 months and I can say that I wish I found this company sooner. I was going into debt at the last company I was leased on to . Even in this market my dispatcher has been able to get me good loads and keep me profitable.
