Why shippers stay with us

Freight is stressful. We take that part off your plate.

You're not really buying miles — you're buying a load that shows up on time, in the same condition it left, with someone on the other end of the phone. That's what we sell.

Peace of mind

Sleep at night knowing sealed trailers, vetted drivers, and a live ops desk are watching your freight — not a voicemail box.

On-time, as promised

95.4% on-time delivery isn't luck. It's routed lanes, honest ETAs, and dispatchers who call you before a delay becomes a problem.

Fewer claims

Pre-cooled reefers, temperature logs, and tamper-evident seals mean product arrives the way it left — and the paperwork proves it.

Real communication

One named contact, a phone that actually gets answered, and updates before you have to ask. No black-hole freight.

How we operate

Three things we refuse to cut corners on.

Procedure, temperature, and custody are the three failure modes that ruin a sensitive shipment. We built the company around removing them.

Documented Playbooks

Every pickup, handoff, and delivery follows a written SOP — so drivers, dispatch, and your QA team are reading from the same page.

Verified Cold Chain

Trailers are pre-cooled before load, supply air is logged the whole trip, and calibrated data loggers travel with the freight for release paperwork.

Locked-Down Custody

Background-checked drivers, tamper-evident seals, king-pin and door locks, and an ops desk watching the fleet around the clock.

What we haul

A full service line, run by one team.

Reefer, dry van, expedited, and specialty freight — dispatched, monitored, and delivered under the same roof, by the same people you talk to on day one.

Reefer & cold-chain

Multi-temp reefer capacity for produce, pharma, and any load that lives or dies by the setpoint — with the temp record to prove it stayed there.

The people behind the wheel

Experienced OTR drivers who stay with us because we run the company fairly — and it shows up in how your freight gets handled.

Modern dispatch stack

TMS, satellite tracking, and lane planning that keep loads moving and your inbox informed instead of guessing.

One point of contact

A named account rep who owns your lanes end to end — books the pickup, watches the trip, and picks up the phone when something changes.

Around-the-clock temp watch

Reefer probes stream setpoint and return-air readings straight to dispatch — with SMS alerts the moment a trailer drifts.

GPS on every tractor

No blind spots between check calls. Every unit reports position, speed, and status back to the ops desk.

Shareable tracking link

Send your receiver or QA team a link and let them watch the load move — no phone tag, no spreadsheets.

Focus transport

Pharmaceutical freight, moved with care.

Pharma is a focus lane for A&B Logistics Inc. We combine temperature-controlled equipment, live tracking, and strict handoff procedures so sensitive medicines, biologics, and medical supplies arrive intact and on schedule.

About us

Driven by people. Trusted coast to coast.

A&B Logistics Inc. has been moving freight for shippers across the country since 2008 — combining seasoned drivers, modern equipment, and hands-on service to keep every load on schedule.

Safety first

A culture of safety, from hiring to every mile driven.

On-time, every time

Proactive tracking and lane planning keep freight moving.

Family-owned

Independent since 2008, based in Bettendorf, Iowa.

Safety first

Safety is the job — before the freight.

We build our operation around DOT and FMCSA regulations, driver well-being, and equipment integrity — because a load only counts when it arrives safely.

HOS compliance

Every driver runs on FMCSA Hours-of-Service rules — 11-hour drive limits, 14-hour on-duty windows, and required 10-hour resets — logged through certified ELDs.

Pre & post-trip inspections

DVIRs on every tractor and trailer, documented daily. Anything out of spec is grounded until it's fixed, not the load.

Continuous monitoring

Speed, braking, and fatigue signals reviewed on an ongoing basis so small issues get coached before they become incidents.

Trained, vetted drivers

Background checks, MVR reviews, and hands-on training — plus a drug & alcohol program that meets DOT standards.

Our customers

Trusted across industries, coast to coast.

From manufacturers and agriculture co-ops to retail distributors, we move freight for teams who can't afford a missed delivery.
