Nationwide Motor Freight Carrier: In 1986, Abilene began operation with a single tractor. Today, our Company is headquartered in Richmond, Virginia and is powered by nearly 500 late-model tractors. Our equipment can be found traveling any highway across the Continental United States and Canada. Since the Company’s founding, Abilene Motor Express has continued to bring innovations to the long-haul, over-the-road truckload market, and we take great pride that Abilene is a leading provider of expedited and time-definite services. The Company has also changed the marketplace by adding strong strategic service offerings, featuring regional operations, Dedicated Contract Carriage, and Sole/Single Source Transportation Services for both dry, and temperature-controlled commodities.
