Perishable goods, shelf life, promotional sales, and sailing dates are the critical nature of your business, therefore it is critical to us.
Our mission is to create a new standard in LTL services by laying a healthy and diverse foundation of service offerings complimented with forward thinking standard practices that result in competitive rate offerings. We know that to get a satisfied customer requires profound trust, transparency, communication, flexible service offerings, and a proactive uncompromising commitment to navigate the many challenges that face freight transportation needs.
Relational.
Theres nothing standard about any customer. Warehouse and forklifts are necessary tools but relationships move business.

We’re comprised of a diverse team of experienced individuals! We aim for a healthy balance of age old proven practices mixed with an always improving evolution and a pulse on market shifts that brings unique value.
Consolidation.
Efficiency propels better service and competitive rates. Our New Jersey warehouse allows us to consolidate orders from single pallets to full truckloads and ship with maximized efficiency and minimize unnecessary touches.
Expedited.
We ship for big box retail and foodservice, cruise lines and hospitality but what they all have in common is that perishable goods need to arrive just in time.

About Us
Shamus Dick
Originally from Southern CA, Shamus and his family relocated to New Jersey to oversee East Coast operations. Shamus functions as the general manager of the warehouse as well as the company accountant (he’s a numbers guy). When he’s not at the warehouse, he’s rebuilding his Jeep or helping his sons with a pinewood derby car. He also dabbles in some craft brewing, he’s a great cook, and generally a decent guy!
Jeff Manion
Though he lives in Southern California, Jeff operates on New Jersey Time, often starting his day at 3am, providing solutions to frequent logistical challenges. Jeff coordinates the operation of our local carriers on both coasts as well as the “over-the-road” carriers to ensure our customers get the service they expect from Providence. Outside of the office, Jeff enjoys hiking with his wife and two daughters, he’s an avid long-distance cyclist, and he makes sourdough bread – one of the key ingredients in his famous avocado toast breakfast (before it was trendy!)
Catherine Dick
Catherine is our second successful CA to NJ transfer! She’s a workhorse who crosses the t’s and dots the i’s. From order entry, intake, inventory, truck loading, and POD’s she’s got a cradle to grave handling of our LTL services. You wont beat her work ethic but on the weekend you can try and beat her at cornhole if you dare!
