Your Trusted Partner for OTR Trucking Solutions
Since 1973, Adams Transit has been a dedicated dry van carrier specializing in 53-foot thin wall van trailers across the Upper Midwest. Our commitment to timely, reliable freight services has been built on decades of innovation, from pioneering palletized foodstuff transportation in the 1970s to adopting high-cube food-grade equipment that exceeds safety standards. We prioritize service excellence through a smaller fleet that allows personalized attention to every shipment, ensuring 97% on-time delivery rates.

Our history with Cupery & De Young Storage Corporation laid the foundation for interstate and intrastate operations, and our philosophy remains unchanged: let performance be our promise. With terminals in Friesland, Wisconsin, we serve communities like Beaver Dam, Columbus, and Portage, offering standardized solutions for complex transportation needs.
