Freight in Illinois

Every load has someone counting on it.

Freight in Illinois runs on I-55, I-57, I-80, I-90, I-94 and I-70, and through Chicago's rail and intermodal yards, Joliet and Peoria. Every one of those loads has a shipper, a broker and a carrier counting on each other to do what they said.

When one of them doesn't, the carrier is usually the one left waiting on the money. That's who this network is for. We look into what happened first, then connect you with a transportation attorney who represents carriers.
