Business ProfileforEcho Global Logistics, Inc.

I contracted and paid for shipping services with Echo Global Logistics. The freight was billed and paid for based on the manufacturer's actual and verifiable weights and dimensions. After the freight was paid for in full, I was informed that rather then using a reputable carrier, Echo Logistics contracted with Central Transport a carrier that has earned an F Rating at the BBB. There are consistent reports that Central Transport provides imaginary weights and dimensions in order to obtain additional revenue.ALTHOUGH THE FREIGHT HAS BEEN PAID FOR IN FULL, ECHO LOGISTICS HIRED A COLLECTION AGENCY THAT IS THREATENING TO SUE ME FOR THE IMAGINARY CHARGES This practice by Central Transport is verifiable, Here is a report at the BBB 1 star 06/25/2024 This is absolutely the worst shipping company. DO NOT USE THEM. I do not know how they are still in business after scamming their customers. They LIE about the weight of the package and upcharge you absolutely ridiculous prices. They add on additional charges after the shipment is delivered without any notice. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY.There are numerous at Trustpilot documenting the practice of "up-charging every load we book with them"I have been using Central Transport since 2014 to ship for our company. Since 2020 they have resorted to up-charging every load we book with them. They lure you in with a low price and then add on charges which are always without any merit. They do everything in their power to rob their customers. We have removed them from our list of carriers as should everyone. Every shipment of the last 3 have been up charged thru my broker. Inspection $40.25, Reweigh $35 LTL reclassification $114.17 They will lie about how much your item weighs and charge you 3-400% of what the quote actually is. Nothing but theifs in this company they will break your costumers valuables none of their trackings work. basically just thiefs.
