T&T Trucking

What T&T Trucking does

T&T Trucking, Inc. is a family-owned, third-generation dry bulk transportation company founded in 1956 and headquartered in Lodi, California, with a second terminal in Bakersfield serving the Western United States. The company specializes in non-hazardous dry bulk haulage across eight Western states (CA, OR, WA, NV, AZ, UT, WY, ID) using a specialized fleet configured for five distinct service lines: Gravity Services (gravity dump trailers for sand, gravel, and aggregates), Pneumatic Services (closed-system pressurized tankers for cement, fly ash, and fine powders with air-powered fluidized unloading in 30-40 minutes), Transfer Services (dual-box rail-to-site movement), Bottom Dump Services (high-volume clamshell discharge for roadbase and earthwork), and Specialty Services (vacuum, pipe abandonment, transloading, and custom engineered solutions).

The underlying operating platform combines a diversified specialized fleet with GPS-enabled tracking surfaced to customers through a third-party McLeod-hosted TMS portal, providing real-time load visibility. There is no proprietary software, no AI/ML capability, and no public API; technology serves as a visibility and dispatch enabler rather than a differentiator. Operational scale is reported at 6M+ miles, 50,000+ loads, and 300+ customers served in the last 12 months.

T&T generates revenue on a quote-based, per-load transaction model, with pricing determined by pickup and delivery geography, equipment type, material specification, and service requirements. The company sells directly to enterprise customers in three primary verticals — construction (aggregates, roadbase, earthwork), manufacturing (cement, fly ash, fine powders), and glass (glass cullet and raw materials) — via B2B quote requests and phone sales. Named enterprise customers include Lhoist North America, TEC Specialty Products, and CertainTeed. Marketing is minimal: the company relies on the corporate website, direct sales contacts, and word-of-mouth referrals within Western U.S. industrial supply chains, with no paid acquisition or partnership channels identified.
