At Giltner Transportation, we move freight safely while treating every load as an opportunity to demonstrate our dependable, high quality service. You know your loads are in good hands with a company that exceeds 98% on time across the country. With a history of over 30 years in the industry, we have adapted to change, improved the lives of others,... and created a fulfilling livelihood in both truck and office. Giltner was established in November 1982 with an initial fleet of a dozen trucks. Douglas Blevins started out as an accountant for the company in January of 1983. In 1990, Douglas and his wife Cheri purchased the company. With them, they improved on a mission of integrity and honesty toward their partnerships with all drivers, customers, and employees. With these core principles and the people around them, they were able to grow to 140 trucks by the late 1990s. In 2003, the Giltner team revamped the quality and reliability in operations, allowing the company to haul produce that is extremely time and temperature sensitive. These specialized competencies quickly became a cornerstone of the Giltner Transportation business model and reputation. In 2017, Greg and Shawna Paulson purchased the company after Douglas passed away. Greg started with the company in 1999 as CFO and became partners with the Blevins in 2005. Today, Giltner operates over 220 trucks and 250 trailers. Giltner's equipment is state of the art and can track the location and temperature of every load via satellite. Our sister company, Giltner Logistics , is a brokerage division that services the entire country with several regional offices located from coast to coast.Read More
