Join a Growing Agency
Agency opened in 2008
After Driving Over The Road for 10 Years and owning a small fleet of 5 Trucks, Don decided to open a freight Brokerage. After looking into many options, He chose to Partner with Landstar. Don Started working at the agency in 2008 from Home. The main focus was to provide better customer service than his competition and always to be upfront and honest with the drivers about every detail of the load, Good and Bad.
Bringing on Employees And Contractors
In 2010 the agency had grown. It was time to start hiring more help. It did not take long to figure out that this job is not for everyone. The reward was finding other people who this does work for and teaching them to be successful.
Opening an Office
After a couple of years of working from home and hiring others to work from Home, Don moved into an Office Located in Harrogate, TN. This allowed the agency to hire more employees and continue to grow.
Growing Office Space
In 201, Shipment Transport Inc. became the top-producing agency in our region. This encouraged us to move into a larger office on Hwy 63 in Cumberland Gap, TN. This location has Truck Parkin, Highway Frontage, and Plenty of room to bring on more Employees.
We also decided to make a training facility out of the Longview office operated by Paula Warner. Paula has a proven track record of customer service and revenue production. With her experience, Paula will be an excellent example for new Satellite agents to learn under.
CEO Circle at Landstar
2018 made the 10th Year that Don was an agent for Landstar. He received the honor of being inducted into the CEO Circle at Landstar. This Honor requires a minimum of 10 years as a successful agency with very high requirements in Performance.
