    Freight Services

    Are you all tired of paying high freight prices on your LTL and TL shipments? If you have say 300 lbs you want to ship and have a way to put on a pallet and attach the shipment to the pallet I may be able to save you a few dollars. Of course the more weight you ship the cheaper the cost per pound. If you would like a quote you can email me at gorven@comcast.net or call me at 814-443-6389.

    I have been ask in many conversations what information do I need to get a quote? So Below is the information that I need to give a accurate quote.

    1. Origin Zipcode and Destination Zipcode

    2. Weight if you have it if not a close estimate will get you a idea of cost.

    3. Commercial or Residential Address

    4. If commercial address do you have a dock or a forklift if not no problem we send a liftgate equipped trailer

    5 If residential is there easy access to your house?

    6. Residential needing a liftgate is the highest rated freight in the LTL shipping business. My suggestion if possible is load on your truck or trailer and take to the trucking companies loading dock. Doing that gives the same rate as a commercial address with loading dock.

    7. Dimensions of Pallet

    When ready to ship I will need.

    1. Your address

    2. Telephone Number

    3. Email Address to send BOL and Address labels too

    4. All destination info

    Have shipped a few loads with gorven now to various folks around the US. In each instance the service has been quick, professional and responsive and the prices are incredibly good compared to other freight shippers. His prices make shipping even low-grade and power boards possible. His service is a great asset to all who scrap non-locally in medium to large quantities. Thank you!

    Terry has helped me with the shipping of tens of 1,000s of catalytic converters. He is always doing his best for my corporation and my customers.

    Shipped another pallet with Gorven a couple of weeks ago of all greater than scrap value items that necessitated, even if well packed, gentle enough handling. This was also the first time using his service for a pick-up rather than a drop off. Driver picked up within the time window and the pallet of hard drives, RAM and CPUs made it safely and quickly to Colorado at a great price. Nothing but good experiences with gorven. A big thanks from Red Rock Metal Recycling in Las Vegas!

    Terry is the man for all your shipping needs. He has personally gone above and beyond for my company many times. From multiple semi loads to smaller shipments, he has always got the job done each day.

    Another year gone by and not a thing changes. Very prompt, reliable and competent service every single time. Large and small loads. Scrap, greater than scrap value and working machines all leave and arrive without issue time and again.

    Had a potential customer in Michigan for a full truckload of material. The freight costs for full truckload long hauls are brutal everywhere right now so it didn't work out in the end. But to try and help the customer I got quotes from eight different haulers including YRC, Central, Reynolds and others. Gorven's price was over $400 cheaper than any other and over $1200 cheaper from the highest. His prices are superb.

    For another perspective, I am building a business plan for a hotshot trucking business. Those that know my perspective on life and scrap might not be surprised. I am tired of fighting steel at my age and reached out for his insight into the transport business. Although he did not have a dime to gain, he provided his view of the business and how my new adventure might be successful. I cannot speak to his prices for hauls, but I can say he was upfront and provided valuable information on how to enter this market. Conclusion: he is a man of integrity that lives by his morals and values over the mighty dollar.

    So the best way to contact you is to call or would email be better? Just landed a client that has more material than I'm used to dealing with. Nit a bad thing I guess

    Had a single (HEAVY) pallet of a scrap commodity that has only a single buyer in the region. Sent Terry the details and it was picked up the same day and delivered the next day. All for less than .10/lb!
