Testimonials

"I have enjoyed working in the Analysis department at DTA for over 21 years. My job is to ensure all fields of data are collected correctly. If the information is not provided from the carrier in electronic format, I must add this information. Our clients then access their information via DTA Dashboards on the DTA website. Our clients are asking us for more detailed information on the accessorial charges such as fuel surcharge, wait time, dangerous goods and these charges are compared to the cost of transporting the goods."
