Here at Echo, we’re inspired daily by our many truckload carrier partnerships. The strength of these relationships is what keeps us rolling – literally – by helping us continuously deliver outstanding performance and services to our roster of global, shipping-partner clientele. We celebrate (and not only during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week) the nearly 3.6 million men and women who readily keep our economy moving with their unwavering commitment to transporting freight safely, securely, and on time.

With this inspirational foundation steadfastly in place, we’re excited to embark upon Echo’s newest recognition program: Truckload Carriers of the Quarter. Every quarter we’ll recognize five of our top carrier partners who’ve gone above and beyond in demonstrating outstanding performance in four key areas: on-time delivery, low cancellation, electronic tracking, and overall service.

Please join me in congratulating our inaugural recipients:

• VVMJ Trucking LLC, Elizabeth, NJ — Owner Operator
• Vision Transportation LLC, Hammond, IN — Small Fleet
• Riverside Transport, Inc., Riverside, MO — Mid/Large Fleet
• Unlimited Carrier Inc., Bolingbrook, IL — Digital Carrier
• Erick Berscheid Trucking, Kimball, MN — Contractual Carrier

As we shared the exciting news with each winner, we were pleased with the sentiments shared back:  

“First off, I'd like to thank you for the acknowledgment. I've been working with Echo since 2020. Right from the get-go, Roberto built a great relationship. In the few times that I've had to work with a different broker the communication and service is nowhere near the level I get from Echo. Roberto knows where my trucks will be, and I can always count on him to keep them moving. Echo has been and will continue to be my first 3PL of choice. Thank you!”

Partnering with Echo allows our fleet to be successful in our goal of being a regional carrier who can provide a wide array of options to our drivers.”

“Riverside Transport has worked with the same rep at Echo Logistics for over 5 years. He’s become invaluable by taking the time to learn our network and forecasting the needs of RTI. Echo has gone above and beyond in creating a great partnership in all facets such as Account Rep, Customer Service, and providing the technology to keep our capacity moving. Riverside Transport looks forward to many more years of continued partnership.”
