Three years of steel loads with zero missed appointments

A Charlotte fabrication supplier on running standing flatbed steel lanes with H&B Logistics Group Inc.

5 out of 5

H&B has moved our steel loads for three years without a single missed appointment. Their dispatch calls us before we have to call them — that's rare.

Steel is unforgiving freight. Coils and structural bundles have to be tarped, chained and permitted correctly, and a mill appointment missed by an hour can push a customer's build schedule a full week.

H&B took over our outbound flatbed lanes three years ago after a carrier left us short during a busy quarter. Since then the pattern has been consistent: trucks show up in the window, loads are secured to spec, and dispatch calls us with a status before we think to ask.

What matters most to us isn't the rate sheet — it's that our customers stopped calling to ask where their steel is.
