Overview

Going from Point A to Point B is simple – especially when you have a 500-truck fleet at your service. But we’re more than a freight carrier. We’re in the business of building connections. It’s why we’re employee-owned and faith-driven. It’s why we view our drivers as partners as well as family. And it’s why we’re known as one of the leading contract carriage and truckload service providers in the U.S.

Nussbaum's drivers are very easy to work with and speak to. You can call and speak to their drivers and not fee like you are hassling them. They arrived on-time for pickup and delivery and have never had an issue.
