We started using John @ Focus West Logistics for LTL freight and he has proven over and over again that he wants to earn our business. When we ask for a quote he gets back to us immediately with an option and will always follow up if he is able to find a better deal, when it comes time for the freight to be picked up he follows up and ensures everything is done and taken care of. I would recommend John and his team at Focus West Logistics
