The trucking division was a natural outgrowth from the grain business. Tom was hauling his own grain but saw the opportunity to use the trucks during the off-season. He began transporting dry freight. Boyd Grain trucks now haul everything from fertilizer to car-parts. The trucking fleet includes approximately 100 trucks that pull vans, dumps, tankers, flatbeds, and hoppers. The brokerage division launched in 2007 and is based in Evansville, IN. Warehousing was another natural outgrowth which now amounts to over 250,000 square feet of space. Tom's son-in-law Logan Graber now heads up these divisions.

T S Boyd Grain did excellent work for us on a dry van load. Driver was tracking electronically. We did not have to chase them for answers, they were proactive in their communication. We are looking forward to our next load with them.
