"Having one point of contact for our delivery needs in and out of the truck- temperature control, access, and now backup cameras - was paramount in our decision to work with Safe Fleet Truck and Trailer," said Steve Dizinno, Director of Operations at City Line. "Safe Fleet
Truck & Trailer offers the most comprehensive line of products for my fleet with a sales person, Kyle Allen, who knows our business very well. This makes my job easier and more efficient."
