ATW Trucking

What ATW Trucking does

ATW Trucking & Transport LLC is a privately-held, Midwest-based asset-based trucking and logistics company founded in 2010 and headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. The company operates a dedicated fleet of dry van, flatbed, and reefer equipment out of two locations — Greenwood, Indiana and Saint Marys, Ohio — and serves manufacturing, construction, industrial, and cross-border shippers primarily across the Midwest. Its service portfolio spans dedicated truckload (dry van), third-party full-truckload logistics (3PL), specialty open-deck freight (flatbed, step-deck, conestoga), heavy equipment shipping, refrigerated logistics, drop trailer pools, and cross-border transportation with customs expertise.

The company monetizes primarily through transaction-fee pricing on dedicated truckload movements and managed-services fees on its 3PL/FTL logistics offering, with pricing provided on a quote basis tailored to customer requirements. Its technology stack consists of real-time shipment tracking and communication systems integrated into a modern fleet, though no proprietary AI/ML, API, or platform ecosystem is disclosed. GTM is sales-led and B2B-direct, relying on personal relationships, 24/7 phone availability, and a digital presence via website and LinkedIn to win enterprise and mid-market accounts. ATW reports 220+ active clients and 100,000+ lifetime completed jobs, with the team (Cody Atherton, Seve Duncan, Tyler Woodcock) drawing on prior experience as drivers, dock workers, and freight brokers/dispatchers as a core differentiator. The company is founder/management-owned with no disclosed institutional investment.
