The narrative

A look inside Pacific Northwest General Freight & Hazmat Carrier ​.

An established Pacific Northwest transportation company providing general freight and hazmat transportation throughout Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and surrounding markets with a three-tractor Class 8 fleet supported by dry van and intermodal equipment. Unlike carriers that rely heavily on spot-market load boards, the Company has developed a base of direct shipper relationships and recurring freight, providing a more relationship driven approach to securing loads and maintaining consistent utilization. Built Through Adaptability Founded as a one box truck pickup-and-delivery operation during the Amazon delivery build out, the business successfully expanded to a fleet of ten box trucks servicing large parcel contracts. When presented with an opportunity that would have effectively tied the Company to a single customer, ownership made a strategic decision to decline exclusivity, sell the box truck fleet, and return to the broader transportation market with three semi-trucks. That decision established the foundation for the diversified carrier operating today. Diversified Freight Mix The Company currently transports a combination of: General freight Hazmat overflow for national shippers Nursery and landscaping loads Dry van freight Intermodal freight Recurring direct-shipper loads Its hazmat capabilities provide access to overflow freight opportunities that may be unavailable to smaller, non-hazmat-qualified carriers, while its diversified customer base helps reduce dependence on any single freight source. Strategic Pacific Northwest Coverage The Company primarily operates along the I-5 corridor from Bellingham to Bend, with regular freight into Spokane and occasional lanes into Idaho. This established regional footprint provides an incoming owner with an operating platform already positioned within the Pacific Northwest's dense network of manufacturers, distributors, agricultural businesses, nurseries, retailers, and other commercial shippers. Turnkey Acquisition Opportunity For an acquirer, this business represents an opportunity to acquire an established transportation platform with: USDOT and MC authority already in place Hazmat-capable operations Three Class 8 tractors Dry van and intermodal equipment Tenured drivers Established direct-shipper relationships Recurring weekly freight Established Pacific Northwest operating lanes Experience navigating changing freight-market conditions A demonstrated history of adapting the business model as market opportunities evolved Reason for Sale Ownership is pursuing a sale to provide capital for new business ventures. The Company offers a buyer the opportunity to step into an established carrier operation rather than building authority, equipment, driver relationships, shipper relationships, and operating infrastructure from the ground up. Confidential Sale. Qualified buyers will be provided additional financial, operational, customer, equipment, and regulatory information during the due diligence process.
