Life Balance, We put our drivers first

Coastal Transport is one of the largest hauling companies across the country and a member of TFI International, a North American leader in the transportation and logistics industry.

Coastal Transport has a rich history in the southeast, dating back to Boise Federwich in 1939. Almost 30 years later, the company saw a shift in ownership and focused on becoming the first carrier to haul imported steel through the Savannah ports. In 1986, Comcar purchased Coastal, where it became one of the largest flatbed carriers in the nation. Growth has come steadily to Coastal Transport, including a Coastal, Kennedy Trucking, and Specialized Transport divisions under the Coastal banner.

Coastal Transport was purchased by TFI International in 2020, running under BTC as a subsidiary. Headquartered in Savannah, GA, Coastal is now the flatbed carrier of BTC.

For over 60 years, Coastal Transport has been a dependable, innovative supplier of quality transportation services to all our clients while providing drivers with fulfilling careers. 

Coastal currently has five terminals through the southeastern US and operates from Chicago to New Orleans and all points east. 

Our success is primarily due to being a dependable, innovative supplier of quality transportation services. We offer a range of services, including Regional Transportation, Short-Haul Transportation and Brokerage Transportation. Our team of experts is consistent; we exceed our customer expectations by providing modern equipment and experienced quality personnel.
