Have worked with Premier Freight Management for about 20 years as an independent , Jonathon has tried to get us to sign on but we like our independence to leave if we wanted. We have only done short term contract, power only. Have never had an issue with pay. We have three and have had four trucks working with them. All office personnel are great. If there were any issues in any way we would not have worked with them this long. If we ever have any problems on the road they taken care of as quickly as can be done. All are great.

The absolute worst and unprofessional business. Very Fraudulent and will keep all the money owed. My driver picked up a load Friday evening on 11/8/19 in Holland Michigan and was supposed to deliver (according to the rate confirmation on 11/12/19) in Culver City CA
The mileage my driver ran for this load was 2,225 miles. On Monday 11/11/19 in the early morning hours in Kansas City MO area, there was light snowy icy weather conditions that my driver didnt feel safe driving in, so he didnt leave out until later and the day and drove all of his 11 hours to make up for lost time, he notified
