There
is a difference between trucking companies. Since May of
1992, contractors in Central Texas have come to expect the
highest level of professional service from Earth Transport
for their aggregate hauling needs. Here are a few reasons
why we are different:
- direct
supervision in the field at job locations improving communication
-
modern and well maintained equipment leading to less disruption
of service for the customer
- outstanding
safety record reducing job-related accidents and lost
time

Sand,
dirt, rocks, and gravel have not changed from the beginning
of time, but the technology used to transport them is constantly
evolving. At Earth Transport we operate modern, fuel efficient
equipment and we don’t stop there. For example, all of our
end dump trailers are equipped with high quality bed liners
that allow the material to come out much more easily. This
is a great safety feature, because it allows the material
to slide at a lower angle, reducing the chances of a trailer
turnover.
We carry
a liability policy with an umbrella written by an "A" rated
admitted carrier. We also provide worker’s compensation
insurance covering all of our employees.

Currently,
our drivers average three years seniority with the company.
This illustrates stability in a historically unstable occupation.
Because
communication is so important between contractors and truckers
to maximize production, we have improved the means of communication
with our drivers. Currently, 20% of our drivers have mobile
phones, with that number steadily increasing. Over the past
couple of years, we have had numerous instances in which
these phones have saved both Earth Transport and the contractor,
time, money, and lost production.
