Landstar Heavy Haul Herald
2nd Quarter 2015
Winner of the February Ugliest Load Contest 
 
The winner of our Ugliest Load Contest is Mark Krystowiak with MK Heavy Transport, a 7-year, Landstar-tenured carrier. This load, going from Maryland to an auction in Delaware happened to be one of the first he moved for us. Mark said the frame was bent and he had to add lights on the rear but experienced no other issues. Congratulations Mark on winning the $250 Petro Gift Card!
 
We would also like to congratulate our runner ups: Earl Hardy Trucking, Destiny Trucking, and 1130087 Alberta LTD. Thank you to everyone who participated! We enjoyed looking at all the unique loads you have hauled!

Agent Spotlight         
         
Meet our Reedsville, PA Agent Mike Hesketh
  

"Central Penn Logistics" is owned and operated by Mike Hesketh (Landstar CPL Agency) in Reedsville, PA. After a well tenured career in Landstar field sales and traffic management, Mike ultimately found the independence, stability and endless opportunities of a Landstar agency to be his final choice and became an agent in 1997.

 

Central Pennsylvania's freight consists of both long and short haul business. Since timing in specialized moves is always a challenge, they focus on the communication process to keep things moving as smoothly as humanly possible.

 

Mike's in-ground fiberglass storage tank business will see a significant ramp-up this spring. He handles 100% of the shipments out of the PA and TX plants. About 45% of the tanks are over-dimensional either for width, height, or length. Although both facilities will see volumes increase through the end of the year, the PA location will experience surges from March to August.

 

If you are interested in this freight please give Mike or his staff a call at 717-798-9287.  

CONGRATULATIONS
