Skelton Truck Lines

Skelton Truck Lines was established in 1962 with one truck. Founder, Larry Skelton believed that by offering safe, reliable and high quality service at a fair price he could establish an exceptional company. Today, over 50 years later and with over 150 pieces of equipment, Skelton Truck Lines is a successful, ever expanding organization. Still keeping to their family roots, Skelton operates family-owned, with three generations of dedicated family members including Larry's sons and four grandchildren. Ron is Senior Vice President in the Business Development Cold-Chain Pharmaceutical division while other son Mike is Senior Vice President and Chief Operations Officer. The grandchildren make up the management positions in dispatch, customer service, human resources, warehousing and operations. Skelton Truck Lines believes that every employee is a part of the Skelton family. Skelton Truck Lines is in a class of its own when it comes to high standards and reliable shipping. In our temperature controlled transport system, validations and qualifications are key to ensure that Skelton Truck Lines goes the extra mile by completing these protocols on every trailer in the fleet. That, paired with our validated cross-dock and warehouse ensures that temperature chain is never broken and product integrity is maintained throughout Canada and across the USA.
