We’re not going to tell you we’re the highest-paying carrier. We’re going to tell you the truth: our rates don’t move with the market.

When volume slows, we don’t cut your rate. When volume spikes, we don’t play games. What you’re quoted is what you get — week after week.

We run a diverse customer base across Chicago, Kansas City, Detroit, and Indianapolis. That means steady freight even when one segment softens. You’re not one slow season away from scrambling.

And when you call us, you’re talking to the people who actually run this operation — not a call center, not a dispatcher who just started last week.

“Honest and transparent to a fault” isn’t marketing speak — it’s how we built Mark-It Express. When you call us, you’re talking to the people who actually run this operation.

We contract with owner-operators on an exclusive basis. That’s not a gig — it’s a real working relationship with committed freight behind it.

Here’s what that actually looks like:

You bring your truck. We bring the MC number, the GPS, the chassis, the yards, the fuel infrastructure, and the freight volume. Your rate is set before you sign, and it doesn’t change with the season. Our dispatchers know your name, your lanes, and your preferences — because the same people are there every week.

Exclusive means we’re invested in keeping you moving. Your downtime costs us too. That alignment matters more than most carriers will admit.

We also don’t hide the math. You’ll know what we’re billing the customer. You’ll know your percentage. Settlement is in your hands the day before payday — review it, flag anything, and we fix it before Friday. No mystery, no runaround.

If you’re tired of chasing brokers for the next load or wondering whether your rate is going to hold through Q3, let’s talk.

You’ve probably worked somewhere that made the math confusing on purpose. Zone pay, hourly blends, “performance” adjustments — throw enough at the wall and nobody knows what they’re actually taking home.

That’s not how we operate.

We show you what we bill. You know your percentage. The fuel surcharge is yours. Accessorials are structured and consistent — not a moving target.

• Settlement delivered the day before payday — review it before Friday, not after
• If something’s off, bring it to us and we fix it. Full stop.
• On-site fuel at every yard — priced below the pump, every time
• Chassis provided — you’re not eating that cost out of your rate
• Consistent dispatch — same team, same standards, every week
• Direct terminal access to BNSF (Joliet/Elwood) and Union Pacific — less deadhead, more productive miles

We accommodate when we can. We’re straight with you when we can’t. That’s the deal.
