Always ready and willing to pick up my loads, even last minute, great to work, on time, great communication, and an absolutely wonderful dispatch to work with. Thank you Courtney for always come through for me and helping me take care of my customers. You all are great and keep up the good work. 100% recommend for your hotshot loads in and around K.C. area. - Michael Brown

Long-Term Relationships
Tomlinson Transportation was built in response to what’s broken in the trucking industry.
Too many carriers chase the cheapest price, cut corners, ignore communication, and treat customers like numbers. Loads get delayed. Phones go unanswered. Promises are broken.
As a family-owned company, Tomlinson Transportation chose a different path.
They built a hot shot operation focused on reliability, safety, and clear communication — running loads across Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Iowa with drivers they actually know and trust.
They’re not the cheapest, and they’re not trying to be.
They’re the company that shows up, keeps their word, and takes pride in doing the job right.
