About Us
Terminal Description
Welcome to Columbus, home of the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Columbus Crew, and the Ohio State Buckeyes. The Columbus terminal opened in April 2007 with just 5 trucks and 4 office employees. Since then, it has grown to operate over 150 trucks across both refrigerated and dry divisions. In 2011, we expanded our capabilities by opening a 12-bay shop.
Our terminal offers a full array of amenities, including showers, vending machines, Wi-Fi, laundry facilities, and a driver’s lounge available 24/7. In October 2022, we moved to a new location, and our driver lounge was completed in May 2024.
The Columbus operations team is dedicated to helping every driver succeed. We pride ourselves on maintaining a safe and productive fleet, which contributes to our low turnover rate through the personal relationships we develop with each driver.
Every driver is part of our family, and we are committed to helping you achieve your goals.
