OUR COMPANIES

RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION SOLUTIONS

When choosing a logistics partner, you want a company that understands your needs, is one you can trust, and will be there when you need them the most.

We believe a key element of a successful relationship is knowing the unique challenges facing your business. That’s why your Account Executive is your one point of contact for all that we have to offer: they become totally integrated in your world, making it their business to know everything about yours. This enables us to better tailor our services to meet your evolving needs in an ever-changing industry.

We are in the unique position to truly understand the challenges a trucking company goes through every day; we encounter these same obstacles, too, with our sister company, RTS Lines. We relate to the need for less deadhead, better freight, and timely payments. This understanding of the entire process, coupled with our reliable service, makes us the chosen 3PL for both small businesses and Fortune 500 companies alike in today’s evolving market.

RTS LINES

With millions of miles logged, RTS Lines continues to out-perform our competition.

Because we understand the vital role our drivers play in our success, we’ve worked to recruit the best team. Our drivers are experienced, attentive, and fully-trained to our company’s high standards. Each driver operates to benchmark standards, with on-going training and evaluations, to ensure our customers receive premium levels of service. And in a world of per-mile driver compensation, RTS Lines continues to think outside the box to do things better. Our creative driver compensation package includes salary-based pay with generous benefits.

We also continue to invest in state-of-the art trucks and equipment, keeping us ahead of the curve in complying with government safety regulations. By combining better equipment with better drivers, we’re more than just a trucking company.

RTMS TECHNOLOGY

Our proprietary supply chain management software, RTMS, successfully manages the needs of, and helps provide better solutions for our customers and carriers.

Customization is the key to our success. Whether you’re shipping a package across town or sending truckloads across the country, our in-house programmers are able to tailor our software to your specific needs. With our cutting-edge technology, we’re developing a new standard of efficiency and transparency in the supply chain. This means that, from your accounting department, to the dock workers, to CSR, everyone has quick access to the information they need, when they need it.

“Big data” is big business. By collecting clean, accurate data, we are able to generate powerful BI reports, which empowers our customers to establish goals and make sound business decisions. It is through the social collaborative platform created by RTMS that we are able to partner with our customers to help them reach their goals.

RTS LEASING

Whether you’re an owner-operator looking for a long-term trailer solution, or a Fortune 500 company needing short-term storage, RTS Leasing has options to meet our customers’ needs.

All our trailers feature the newest iBright monitoring technology, which facilitates updated alerts, remote temperature controls, GPS tracking, and more—giving you the security you need, so you can focus on your business. We also maintain all the trailers and offer flexible leasing terms, ranging from daily to yearly leases.

OUR HISTORY

No one said it would be easy. It was 2006. We had to deal with a Great Recession and a competitive logistics market. But we thought we had the drive to make it work.

So we set out to be different. Better.

We already knew we had great service. But we also knew we had to treat carriers better. So we did, and it paid off. While other companies were going bankrupt, we grew. The economy was down, we only had 3 employees, and we were the latest start-up. Still, we flourished.

The RTS philosophy was one customers and carriers could get behind. Over and over, we were chosen not just because we understood logistics, but because we understood people. We built and fostered what have become long-term relationships.

We’ve come a long way since that garage. Over 60,000 square feet, in fact. The RTS family also has its own fleet of refrigerated tractor-trailers, equipment leasing, and its own proprietary supply chain management software. Can your brother’s rock band say that?

Apple, Google, Amazon, Harley Davidson, your brother’s rock band…what do all these have in common? They all got their starts in garages. And RTS, like them, began in a garage (what better place to start a transportation company than where the vehicles are?)

IN OUR COMMUNITIES

Work hard, volunteer hard…or, wait, is that the saying? It’s true for us at RTS. We know our success depends on healthy and thriving communities, and we want to do our part fostering success where we live and work. We sponsor and assist with projects for local non-profits and community organizations that are helping to make our communities better places to live, and we participate in 5K events, parades, youth fundraisers, and activities with several local schools, all because we’re driven to provide the best future possible for our community.

RTS has been a tremendous blessing to Georgetown Schools through generous donations and volunteer support.
