Built in the Big City
We started with one box truck, a borrowed dock, and a promise: pick up on time, deliver on time, tell the truth in between.
Our Story
From One Truck to Forty-Eight States
Big City Trucks was founded by drivers who were tired of watching freight get treated like an afterthought. We grew the old-fashioned way — by answering the phone, showing up early, and never billing a fee we didn't explain first.
Today our carrier network moves thousands of loads a year across the continental U.S., but the desk still runs like day one: every shipment has a name on it, and that person picks up when you call.
