R+L-- good company. Of course, use Google to look up West Texas Freight to call others. Mostly I wanted you to know to buy insurance at www.u-pic.com. Follow their instructions to the letter. With them, we have real insurance, even for the smallest Post Office or FedEx package. At the value WE determine!!

Very important:
- The person buying the insurance is who will get paid. Whomever buys has three days after shipping to buy the insurance which includes registering the tracking number(s) with them.
- With your chosen freight carrier, declare NO value to them because, as U-PIC explains, the U-PIC claim inspector can’t get started until that freight company’s inspector is done. A zero value keeps that inspector out of your picture.
- You have to request "Have these two big cartons strapped to a pallet when the driver gets back to the dock, and keep them upright as marked-- I’ll make sure your driver knows, but will you put this on my waybill? Thanks." If not, then good luck on those cartons surviving truckers and forklifts.
