What we haul

Capacity for every
kind of load

Started in produce, grown into a full-service carrier. Whether it fills five trailers or a quarter of one, we match your freight to the right equipment and keep you posted the whole way.

  • Dry Van

    Closed, sealed and locked trailers that keep freight safe from weather and theft. Ideal for anything that isn’t temperature-sensitive.

  • Refrigerated (Reefer)

    Sealed, temperature-controlled trailers for produce, frozen and perishable loads — the freight OTC was built on.

  • Full Truckload

    Dedicated capacity for one or more full loads, matched to the right equipment for the job.

  • Less Than Truckload

    Ship partial loads without paying for the whole trailer, with the same tracking and service.

  • Warehousing

    Secure storage in Columbus for freight you need to hold now and ship later.

  • Cross Docking

    Transfer freight between inbound and outbound trailers fast, with minimal dwell time.

Common freight:
  • Produce
  • Frozen foods
  • Refrigerated goods
  • Dry goods
  • Food packaging
  • Fragile items

Zero-tolerance safety protocol

Safety first

Every driver
goes home safe.

That’s our number-one rule for company drivers and owner-operators alike. It’s also why your freight shows up on time — well-maintained trucks don’t break down on I-70.
