About / est. 2011

Built by people who hate excuses.

Prime Express Delivery started with four trucks and one dock in Chicago. Fifteen years later we run truckload, LTL, drayage, and last-mile freight to every state in the continental U.S. — still answering the phone the same way we did on day one.

Company log

Fifteen years, one dispatch board.

We've grown from a single Chicago dock to a nationwide network — but the log below is still how we think about it: one entry at a time, one promise kept after another.

2011

Four trucks, one dock.

Prime Express Delivery opens with four dry vans and a single loading dock in Chicago, IL, running regional truckload freight.

2014

The first cross-dock network.

We open our first regional cross-dock hubs, extending LTL service to 12 states with next-day and two-day lanes.

2017

Cold chain goes live.

A dedicated reefer fleet joins the network, adding temperature-controlled capacity for perishable and pharmaceutical freight.

2020

Coast to coast.

Prime Express Delivery reaches all 48 contiguous states, with dedicated lanes running from the Pacific Northwest to the Gulf Coast.

2023

Port operations open.

We launch drayage and intermodal service at three major U.S. gateways, connecting ocean freight straight into our trucking network.

2026

Where we are today.

3,900+ fleet units, a 6,500-carrier partner network, and 9 warehouse facilities — still dispatched by people, not just software.

What we stand for

Four things we don't compromise on.

Reliability

We measure ourselves in minutes, not excuses. If a load is running late, you hear it from us first.

Transparency

Real-time visibility on every load, not a black-box status page that says "in transit" for three days.

Safety

Driver-first standards and full DOT compliance across every unit in the fleet, no exceptions.

Accountability

Every load has a name attached to it inside our building. When something goes wrong, someone owns it.

By the numbers

A network built to cover the map.

The people behind it

Every load moves through someone's hands.

Software schedules the freight. These are the people who actually move it.
