Overview

Birkmire Trucking Company began in 1947 when Thomas J. Birkmire began hauling coal from the local coal yard to customers’ houses in his pickup truck. He differentiated his business by offering trucking services 24 hours a day, seven days a week. His dedication to his customers and to superior service enabled him to quickly become the prime carrier for many of Erie’s manufacturing companies. Today, with more than 30 power units and over 1,000 rental units, Birkmire Trucking is able to accommodate a wide range of needs for both commercial and residential customers.
