We have recently used  Long Haul. I believe that Long Haul 
is not a freight broker--they have their own trucks and use a 
trailer with what I think is called a "Rolling Tarp" or Roll-
Tite van. I have nothing but good words to say about Long 
Haul <http://www.longhaultrucking.com/home.html> . 
They are located in  Albertville, MN. It took them about a 
week to ten days to schedule a truck from Wisconsin to here 
in Washington state. Communication was good and the 
trucker was a great guy that knew his business. We told 
them how we wanted it rigged--no load chains over the 
ways!-- and what the dimensions were and they quoted the 
price.  Freight arrived in about four days, clean and dry 
under the rolling tarp with no problems. 

No relationship to the company other than being a satisfied 
customer.
