Company Description:
Founded in 1999, Buddy Moore Trucking was built on the experience of E.H. "Buddy" Moore Jr., whose 60 plus years in the trucking industry, including 10 years as an over-the-road driver, helped shape a company rooted in the driver perspective. From an initial fleet of 15 flatbed trucks, the company has grown into a multi division transportation provider with a fleet of over 370 trucks, including more than 150 in the flatbed division, 50 plus in the specialized pole division, and over 110 in the van division, along with a strong network of more than 60 owner operators and dedicated accounts. Through steady growth and strategic expansion, Buddy Moore Trucking has established a strong presence across the Southeast, operating seven terminals. In 2024, the company joined PS Logistics, one of the largest privately held transportation and logistics companies in the United States. Today, the company continues to deliver reliable, high-quality service while maintaining a driver first culture and staying committed to the drivers and employees who make that possible.
