Company Profile
A Legacy of Leadership in Transportation
Buchanan Logistics delivers results. Backed by decades of industry expertise and a relentless focus on reliability, safety, and service, we move more than freight—we move business forward. With over 160,000 loads managed annually and $350 million in revenue, our performance speaks for itself. We’re proud to operate with a 99% on-time pickup and delivery rate, thanks to a dedicated team of over 600 logistics professionals and a technology-driven approach that keeps shipments on track—every mile of the way.
Since 1996, Buchanan has grown from a single truck and a bold vision into one of North America’s most trusted transportation partners. Founded by Geary Buchanan, an owner-operator with 24 years of trucking experience, the company was built on the promise of fair pricing, quality service, and lasting partnerships. That promise still drives us today. Learn more about our mission and family values.

A Story of Growth—Driven by Purpose
From a small flatbed operation, Buchanan quickly expanded to serve more complex markets, including expedited freight, heavy haul, and hazardous materials. Our van, drop deck, and curtain-side fleets grew in response to rising demand. As our footprint expanded, so did our capabilities—culminating in a full-service logistics arm ready to handle any cargo, of any size, to any destination.
In response to growing customer needs, we created Buchanan Specialized, our HAZMAT-certified division built on rigorous training, best-in-class equipment, and a commitment to safety on every haul. Discover more about our flexible shipping solutions.
