The Yard
Rules
A carrier is judged at the dock, not in the brochure — trailer at the door, bill in hand, signature back. This is the yard that runs it.
County Road
23 North.
NLQ TRUCKING LLC is an Ohio carrier headquartered at 486 County Road 23 N in Quincy — Logan County farm-and-freight country, where a mile is a mile and a delivery window is a promise.
The fleet runs fifteen lanes in three route classes: the local round (general freight, container, and contract bulk mail), long-distance truckload, and long-distance less-than-truckload — every load moving on a numbered bill of lading.
How the freight
is run.
Bill before wheels
No load moves on a handshake. Every shipment gets a numbered bill of lading — lane, rate, and window in writing before the truck rolls.
The window holds
Pickup and delivery windows are quoted like we intend to keep them — because we do. Delays are called ahead, not discovered at the dock.
Signature closes it
A load isn't done when it's dropped — it's done when the signed receipt comes back and the bill closes clean.
Round, haul,
or share.
Route 1 is the local round — same-day freight, container moves, and contract bulk mail inside the home territory.
Route 2 is the line-haul — a full trailer, one shipper, one consignee, door to door over distance. Route 3 consolidates partial loads onto the same long-distance lanes for shippers who don't fill a trailer.

General freight — dry goods, palletized cargo, containers, and contract bulk mail. We run three route classes: local trucking, long-distance truckload (TL), and long-distance less-than-truckload (LTL). Fifteen registered lanes cover the combinations.
TL (Route 2) is a dedicated trailer — your freight fills the trailer and runs door to door. LTL (Route 3) is consolidated — partial loads share the trailer on the same long-distance lane, priced by the space you use.
Yes — contract bulk mail truck transportation is a registered lane, both local and long-distance TL. Contract terms, schedules, and reporting are handled through the dispatch office.
Call or write dispatch with origin, destination, freight description, weight, and timing. You get a written rate on the bill of lading before anything moves — no verbal quotes that change at the dock.
Local lanes run the Logan County / west-central Ohio round. TL and LTL run long-distance — origin or destination can be anywhere we hold authority; ask dispatch about your lane.
Call +1 (989) 534-9087 or write r.mcallister@nlqtruck.shop with the freight details. Dispatch confirms the lane, cuts the bill, and books the window — usually the same business day.
