Coverage
Six states on our own trucks. The rest of the country by freight.
Running our own fleet regionally is what lets us say yes to the awkward jobs — forty totes behind a plant in a town no carrier routes through. Outside that radius we book contract freight and quote it delivered, so a customer in Texas sees one price rather than a product cost and a freight surprise.
Short answer
Own trucks across Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky and West Virginia from 4750 W 160th St, Cleveland, OH 44135. Contract freight nationwide, quoted delivered.

Form 01 · Spec request
Check your lane.
Postal code in the field below is all we need. We will tell you when the next scheduled truck passes and whether your load can ride it.
Regional lanes
Where the trucks actually go.
Northeast Ohio
Cleveland, Akron, Canton, Youngstown, Lorain, Elyria, Mentor and the whole I-90 and I-77 corridor. Same-week collection is normal here and customer pickup from the yard is easy.
Central & Southwest Ohio
Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati, Springfield and Middletown, plus the I-70 and I-71 corridors. Weekly lanes, with consolidation for smaller counts.
Western Pennsylvania
Pittsburgh, Erie, Sharon, Butler and New Castle. A dense industrial base and one of our busiest inbound regions for empties.
Southeast Michigan
Detroit metro, Toledo crossing, Ann Arbor and Monroe. Strong automotive and coatings demand for reconditioned stock.
Northern Indiana
Fort Wayne, South Bend, Elkhart, Gary and the Chicago approach. Regular runs, often combined with Michigan legs.
Kentucky & West Virginia
Northern Kentucky, Louisville corridor, Huntington, Wheeling and the I-79 corridor. Fortnightly lanes with consolidation.

| Western Pennsylvania | Yes, weekly | 1 week | Usually possible |
| Southeast Michigan | Yes, weekly | 1 week | Usually possible |
| Northern Indiana | Yes, fortnightly | 1–2 weeks | Depends on schedule |

Questions
Coverage, answered.
01Do you serve customers outside the six states?
Yes, constantly. Our own trucks cover the regional lanes; everything beyond goes on contract freight, quoted delivered so you get one number rather than a product price plus a surprise. Full truckloads travel nationwide without difficulty.
02How often do you run each lane?
The Ohio lanes run weekly or better. Pittsburgh, Detroit, Cincinnati and northern Indiana are typically weekly to fortnightly. Ask about your specific area and we will tell you when the next scheduled truck passes.
03Can I ride an existing lane to save on freight?
That is exactly the right question to ask. Adding units to a scheduled truck costs materially less than booking one. Tell us your postal code and how flexible your dates are and we will look for a fit.
04Is there a minimum for collection?
About a pallet for a dedicated trip. Smaller counts are usually possible if they can ride an existing lane, which is another reason to tell us your date flexibility up front.

About a pallet for a dedicated trip. Smaller counts are usually possible if they can ride an existing lane, which is another reason to mention your date flexibility up front.
05What is the best question to ask about freight?
Not what your rate is, but when your next truck is near my postal code and whether my order can ride it. The first gets a tariff; the second gets the actual cheapest option, which is frequently not on any tariff.
