Bottom line: not worth the money - we paid premium rates and got mediocre results. I manage 60 trucks in the Southeast and after nine years in this business their quote blew up by nearly 40% with fuel and surprise accessorials, ending up about $3,200 more than expected. Two delayed loads cost us overtime and a canceled pickup, and slow customer service made the extra cost feel like a slap in the face.
I've used Yusen Logistics for five years. With twelve years managing a 55-truck fleet in the Southeast, the feature that stood out was their portal's real-time ETA updates and automatic push alerts; those live adjustments let us cancel unnecessary deadhead miles and reschedule drivers before they faced long waiting times at terminals. The operational impact was tangible - weekly driver idle hours dropped and dispatching became noticeably more predictable.
Bottom line: Yusen pulled a last-minute miracle and got a transmission module to our Indiana plant overnight when our vendor missed the cut-off. I called them at 7pm, they rebooked an air uplift, arranged a local pickup, and the dispatcer stayed on the line updating me - saved us from a shudown. I've run my own trucks in the Midwest for 12 years, and this kind of follow-through is rare, so I'll be calling them again.
