Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Does it definately have to be a refrigerated truck? Twice a week / 3-6 stops per day / 1-3 cartons????? We are a courier in PA and would be more then willing to handle this for you, we do not currently run a refrigerated vehicle. Thanks, Ron (6/4/2008)
Response: No, it does not HAVE to be refregirated, as we can pack our boxes with icepacks (what we are currently doing!). Let me know what you can do ron - so far, I only received 1 quote from another company located in Philadelphia ... :) (6/4/2008)
Response: We curently go into the NY city area a few times a week. Do you know what days during the week you are looking to have this done? Are all the deliveries close in proximity and in the city? Give me a few more details and I am sure we can work something out. We do alot of business in PA and Central and Upper NJ into NY every day. Thanks, Ron (6/4/2008)
Response: We usually need deliveries in NYC on Wednesdays and Fridays ... and sometimes in NJ, on the way to NYC (like in zipcode 07921 and 08557). All the NYC are located in Manhattan, and our clients are hotel/restaurant/retail stores. Each client orders around 40 to 90 lbs of foods. Obviously, those numbers are supposed to increase, as we are just starting to sell in NYC! Do you charge per stop in NYC, mileage/gas surcharge, hourly rate????? Let me know! (6/4/2008)
Response: We could give you flat rate to NYC which would be mileage, fuel, tolls, etc then charge a per stop rate. We are very flexible and tailor our services to our customers needs. We have been in business for almost 10 years and can provide impecable references. Customer service and reliabilty is our main concern. If you want me to put in some type of bid based on a particular delivery and then we could work out the details once we are able to contact each other. Let me know what you would like me to base a bid on. Thanks again, Ron (6/4/2008)
Question: We are in the area of the zip codes in NJ that you mentioned daily. We could definately make this work for both parties. Let us know. Thanks, Ron (6/4/2008)
Question: Were is this City Warminster, PA? how far are you from me? (6/5/2008)
Question: Good Morning, have you decided on a carrier yet? How did our quote compete? Please let me know if there is anything else we can do to earn your business. Thanks, Ron (6/9/2008)
