ATS takes over Waylon Transport

USA-based Anderson Trucking Service (ATS) has bought out Canadian distribution firm Waylon Transport, incorporating Waylon’s 22 trucks and 40 open trailers into the ATS fleet.

Waylon was founded in 1982 as an intra-provincial carrier in the Province of Alberta. Close to Edmonton International Airport and near major roadways and railroad yards, Waylon provides easy access for loading and unloading of imports and exports. The company has specialised in local and international distribution, and serves the Alberta oil field, transporting equipment and supplies.

Founded in 1955 ATS today offers flatbed, specialized, wind energy, van and international transport. It is the largest truckload carrier in Minnesota and the 39th largest for hire carrier in North America, operating more than 2,400 tractors and 8,600 trailers.
