What Dave R. Grant Hay does

Dave R. Grant Hay, Inc., operating as Dave Grant Trucking, is a family-owned trucking and logistics company headquartered at 910 W 24th Street, Ogden, Utah, founded in July 1973 by Dave Grant and incorporated in July 1979. The company runs four coordinated service lines: long-haul and regional flatbed transportation using Peterbilt tractors and California-legal 53' flatbed trailers (plus A-Train Maxi Equipment); aggregate and seasonal road-salt dump-truck delivery via the wholly-owned subsidiary Grant Trucking LLC, formed in 2006 to serve Staker Parson Companies; a reload/transload facility at the Ogden terminal with two private rail tracks served by Union Pacific and BNSF; and a freight brokerage arm that leverages approximately 700 trusted carriers for overflow loads.

The company operates across 11 western US states with regular service into the Midwest, Texas, and the Southeast, and holds trucking authority in Canada. Its 51-100 employees include a second-generation leadership team (David Grant, President; Tom Grant, Vice President) alongside founder Dave Grant (CEO) and CFO Wayne McCollum, plus dedicated dispatch, recruiting, brokerage, and shop staff. Operational footprint includes 5.3 million miles driven annually and an in-house shop maintaining late-model equipment.

Revenue is generated through transaction-fee pricing on each service line, with customer acquisition split between direct phone sales, a website rate-quote form, and an organic social presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube. Pricing is fully quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The customer base spans construction/aggregate (Staker Parson as the anchor dump-truck customer), manufacturers and trading companies served via the reload facility, and feedlots/dairies as the original hay-hauling customer base. The company has no disclosed external funding, no parent entity, and operates as a private Utah corporation under family control.
