Emory Rolfson's review of RXO

Vito Bruen-BradtkeJan 2026

Bottom line: not worth the money - overpriced and under-delivered. Their rates looked fine at first, but between surprise fees and slow pay we lost roughly 10–15% margin on multiple lanes and it cost me about $3k last month. For a dispatcher juggling 30 trucks on the West Coast, the flashy tools didn’t put cash in my pocket - just extra headaches and tighter margins.

Last December during a blizzard my consignee closed and I was stuck off the PA turnpike - RXO rebooked me with a new load in under an hour so I didnt run empty. I'm a one-truck owner-operator with seven years in the Northeast and that quick rebook plus the live tracker updating ETAs almost perfectly is what made me happy; it actually worked when I needed it. Not flawless - app can be glitchy and payments sometimes drag - but reliable enough for 4 stars.

Their predictive ETAs saved us a ton of headaches. The alerts showed realistic delay probabilities hours before carriers called, so we could reassign loads and avoid long layovers; we run 75 trucks in the Pacific Northwest, and those small windows matter. Last month a backup at the Fraser River terminal was flagged with a projected two-hour dwell and rerouting two trucks that morning kept us from paying detention and got drivers home on time. The dashboard isn't flashy but it's clear, and the data feeds into our TMS with minimal tweaking. That ETA feature alone pays for itself fast.
