Our History

If that isn’t enough let’s go down to Lakeland, Fl, one of our largest facilities, and speak to Anthony Silvera who is still a driver for us 30 years after beginning his career with USA Carriers. Add to that Service Express, another quality company that began in the 90’s. One of the best operating facilities in our network located in Richmond, VA came from our acquisition of Service Express. The management team and office staff that currently run the operation were part of the original acquisition back in 2008. We have 3 drivers (Rodney King, Brian Stewart and Kerry Tyler) that also work in Richmond that will also attest to why they have stayed. Moving to our last acquisition Pinch Carriers, down in Texas we have Rebecca Pires who leads our Account Management team. Come do business with family, people who have grown together for over 3 decades.
