Driving With Honesty, Integrity and Family for Over 60 Years
Since 1958, when Leavitt’s Freight Service was established by the Leavitt Brothers, they clearly understood what they were selling. “Service”; they put it in the name to remind them daily. The brothers and their growing team built the Leavitts Flatbed Trucking business on “Quality Service” to their customers and their employees. Over the years, Leavitts has built a reputation for treating our Flatbed drivers, staff and clients as our extended family. We constantly strive to maintain a work environment of integrity and honesty at all times. This setting provides the quality of service and logistics that means your load will always be delivered on time.
Our drivers make great money and enjoy the work.
Story of a Home Grown Flatbed Trucking Business
The Early Years…
Three brothers, Doug, Dean, and Dewey Leavitt established Leavitt’s Freight Service in 1958. The Company was founded and grew on two philosophies: integrity – an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay, and premium service – exceeding our customers’ expectations. Learn more
The Expansion Years…
During the 70’s Leavitt’s moved literally thousands of Flatbed loads of laminated beams into California. Like many other suppliers to the construction industry, we took part in the building of Silicon Valley and the expansion of the LA basin. Although our primary market was California, Leavitt’s also provided service throughout the eleven Western States. Learn more
New Horizons…
In the early 90’s, the founding brothers retired and sold the business to two of the sons, Terry (Doug’s son) and Duane (Dewey’s son). In 1998, in recognition of his longtime contributions and value to the company’s growth and direction, Ron Riddle was brought into an ownership position with the company. His intense focus on our customer’s needs and transportation solutions has raised the bar for the company’s performance. Learn more
The Future is Bright…
Leavitt’s Freight Service recently merged under the Daseke banner with Central Oregon Truck Company. Together we will continue the Leavitts Flatbed traditions of Family, Honesty and Integrity. Learn more
