Ristow Trucking strives very hard to make the movement of your freight as efficient as possible.  In order to perform this feat however, we must rely upon obtaining and using only the best equipment and services.  

Our Equipment & Technology Statement is centered upon only acquiring and using that which will allow us to better move and detail your freight in an organized, timely and coordinated manner.

As Proof We Say

• We service our own vehicles from our own garage and dedicated mechanics maintaining them well-above DOT standards.
• We purchase office equipment based upon functionality and need benefit rather than the 'bells-n-whistles' concept of purchasing.
• We purchase computer hardware based upon reliability and service using the same vendor as do many Fortune 500 companies and government.
• Multiple shipments to various destinations are picked up on the same day by company operated equipment. This reduces shippers loading time, scheduling, space problems and costs.
• We have maintained our own in-house load management software system since 1993 which continues to grow with us.  
• We have developed a means for customers to Rate their orders with us live-over the Internet.

Making the correct decisions is our way of making sure that we are asked to carry and store your freight again and again.
