    One of my go to transportation providers for when the job needs to be done right, the first time. Consistent service from a professional team. Agnes has always been a pleasure to work with. Wouldn't know what to do without her!

    Company tries forcing you to do illegal things , like disconnecting e-log ,& work as a local driver when your hours of service running out. If you say no, that's the risk of being fired. Don't believe anything what they promise. Bunch of liars without respect for drivers.

    ATTENTION truckers,DO NOT attempt entering through the electric place next door. You gonna have a hell of a time turning back around. Coast Connection are great. They gave me door right away. Got unloaded in 10 minutes with BOL in my hand

    What a great company and driver. Michael was very friendly and patiently waited for my equipment to show up to unload him. Often when using shipping companies, one never knows when their shipments will arrive. With Coast Connection I was called the day before as well as when they were a few minutes away. I can’t say enough about how happy I am and how friendly Michael was. A++++
