Expanding Our Capacity

At Estes, caring for the people we serve is both a privilege and a responsibility we take seriously. As the global supply chain continues to experience lingering disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we remain committed to ensuring our customers have reliable access to the freight solutions they need. That’s why we’ve:

  • Added more than 700 doors to our vast terminal network in the last 18 months
  • Made significant equipment investments that grew our robust fleet by more than 7% in 2021
  • Hired an additional 1,000 drivers this year to keep freight moving as quickly as possible
  • Purchased nearly 2,000 additional tractors, 800 forklifts, and 750 electric pallet jacks so far in 2022
  • Planned the opening of additional terminals in the coming months that will add more than 260 additional doors to our network 

As the nation’s fifth largest LTL carrier, Estes knows the vital role we play in the supply chain. That’s we’ll never stop going the extra mile to boost capacity and invest in solutions that keep our customers’ freight moving through our network as efficiently as possible.
