Overview

Skinner Transfer is a family-owned, client-based freight service. We know you have plenty of choices out there for your freight and dry van carrier services. Trucking companies are a dime a dozen. But not all freight services have decades worth of transportation experience. Nor do those trucking companies spend as much time learning about our clients needs before we carry their products or items across the country.
