Overview

Our company was founded in March 2004 by Kevin Penick. He started off with one dump truck and stayed with one dump for around 6 years. Then he decided to switch from running a dump truck to owning a truck and trailer. With the high demand for transportation he continued to grow the business and now has 15 trailers to offer for loads.

This team ran a few beer moves for us a while back and have a good standing with our company. They arrived slightly early for the delivery side and had to wait a bit, but did not complain. They provided the paperwork when the job was complete. No issues.

Good carrier overall, dependable for dedicated freight runs as they have only had a couple instances of being delayed but both dispatch and drivers are very good about communicating this to us in a timely manner.
