Use anyone but these guys for shipping they will bill you charges that should not have been billed. We have trucking companies pickup and dropoff here daily and twice they have billed us for residential pickup or delivery fee. Bunch of thieves

Alecia is so extremely rude. Can not give simple information about a tracking. Gave false information about the location of the item. It's ok to not know but don't make things up. Ryan ended up helping me after being hung up on and was able to track down the issue and call me back with the correct info.

Worst place to go. Nobody should use these guys they’re rude. My girlfriend had a shipment sent and they sent it through them. It’s been there for a while then they hang up on her and she is also Native American veteran, and they hang up on her because they don’t want to talk to her still trying to charge us even though the Load is not delivered Trying to hijack the load in by saying if you don’t come pick it up, then we will charge you for storage on top of it and charge mileage. We already paid once overall is the worst company that I’ve seen and have truck for a while so I was like Swift bought them out, Oh that’s right Swift did buy them out

Absolutely horrible customer service! I was transferred 3 times and was treated with absolute disrespect from all 3 representatives. They had 100% disregard for my concerns and questions and not one of the reps. were willing to do anything for me, or take any action to look into our shipment. I would never contact this company for freight and will be in touch with my cabinet supplier to relay this, as well as request that they never ship 3rd party through Midwest Motor Express ever again. If I could give a negative star rating they would receive a -5 *.

They are understaffed and customer service is nonexistent. EXPECT DELAYS. It doesn't get any worse than this in the LTL world. The most recent debacle was shipment from Defiance, OH arrived in Fargo ND in 3 1/2 days on SAIA Trucking. Very good. Shipment was then transferred to MME. in Sioux Falls. Arrived in Dickinson at 5:28 am on 3/2/2022. As of 3/3/22 it is still there. First 1142 miles in 4 days. Last 131 miles 7 days and counting. Avoid this carrier if you can.

This company held my machine in Milwaukee for 6 additional days for no reason. Everyday it was a new excuse. The weather was one of those excuses even when it was 58 degrees out no rain and sunny. I bought a cnc machine and needed it for a certain day. They advertised it as a 4-5 delivery time its been over 10 days now. I need this machine to complete a job that I bid on. They screwed me on that. Stay away from this company the absolutely suck and do not care about you.

Terrible business practices. We had a shipment delivered from a supplier who used MME. When MME delivered the package, they used a lift gate (their choice, not our request since we have a dock). Then they sent us a bill for the lift gate service. We have never been a customer of MME, we only took delivery. The lady at MME said because we signed the delivery receipt we had to pay, or they were going to take us to collections. Totally ridiculous, and a completely false statement. I called the company who shipped us the package, and they profusely apologized for MME's behavior, said this was not the first time they've had this issue, and assured me MME was way out of line. I've never been a customer of MME, and I will NEVER give them my business.

It is not a place to ship standard freight with. Steel plates, concrete, steel beams, rocks would be ok. If the freight is surrounded by 1/2" plate steel maybe. If they destroy something in shipping, if its used, the pay. 30 on the pound. Good thing the last person I talked too before warned me.

This is probably the best truck driving job in Portland area . Although this is a small terminal, meaning no saftety and on-site maintenance personnel, no logistics planners . This is not a job for wannabees . This is a job for someone willing to show up on time . Someone who cares to perform a good pretrip daily. Someone who looks over the paperwork and verifys the load matches the paperwork and it is securely loaded. This is a job for someone willing to buy a tire gauge and a glad hand hose and maintain good tire pressure. Carry your own fuses ,some zip ties , 2 pairs of gloves for fueling and handling freight ,and be a real truck driver. This job is for for someone willing to verify the address and route with their smart phone and compare it to the route provided (its been known to be wrong) . This is a job for someone who is willing to call the customer and ask any questions related to making the delivery if necessary. If you're willing to provide good customer service and act in a professional manner while representing the company. This is a job with bankers hours, although from time to time flexibility and adaptability are required to cover other employees in case someone can't make it in as well as the willingness to help on the dock occasionally when necessary. Check all your legal documents and stay legal you have to watch out for yourself. I very much enjoyed this job.

The Company is very stingy as far as maintaining equipment. That pertains to trucks, trailers, forklifts, dock equipment, etc.. The wages are on the low end and they are vehemently anti union. Management has unreasonable expectations pertaining to delivery times. The dock is extremely unorganized that results in a chaotic and stressful atmosphere on the dock. Furthermore, although you may be a local driver, management will force you to do linehaul runs.

This job is for super truckers that are EXPERTS at getting away with breaking rules & laws. If you follow rules & laws, you will be in trouble WEEKLY. They would tell me to do something different, and the next week, I would be in trouble for that. They didn't care about DOT unless you got busted for it.

Warehouse is too small have to load your own trucks for your daily deliveries. Everything is so packed in this small warehouse and drivers can’t begin their routes until they find their items to load. They need a bigger warehouse and dock workers to make job smooth and easier.

MME is easy to work for and laid back as long as we get our deliveries done. most deliveries are easy there are times i have asked the question of why are we carrying this kind of freight, stuff that belongs on a flatbed. its been very difficult to complete my job when i don't have the proper equipment to complete my job such as lift gate trailers, power jacks for extremely heavy pallets.

LTL Trucking is a fast-paced and high energy environment. Customer relations is a large part of being a good driver as well. Drivers deal with 15-25 different businesses/customers a day at Midwest Motor Express. They don't force weekend shifts, and overtime kicks in after 50 hours. Drivers are not required to work the dock either.
