Our History
Family owned and founded in 1968 in West Point, MS, Royal Trucking Company has had the opportunity to provide transportation solutions to thousands of customers in the USA and Canada for more than fifty years. From small beginnings with just three gravel trucks, we have grown into a 200-truck fleet with over twice as many trailers and more than three hundred dedicated employees.
Thanks to our great clients and drivers, Royal Trucking Company has proudly stayed on the cutting edge of technology, often implementing new industry systems years before our competitors. This ability to adapt reduces costs, increases performance, and improves the overall quality of our service to our customers. After fifty years of hard work and service, we look forward to the next fifty and beyond!
