Oregon Trucking Associations, Inc.

Oregon Truck Dispatch

A & M Transport—Kristina

heads up human resources and

Ryan oversees flatbed dispatch

operations.

Suzan, the youngest daughter

of Andy Sr., and Marian, is CFO.

Suzan’s husband Jim, and their son

Patrick work in Dry Van Dispatch

Operations.

Kathleen is the oldest child of Andy

Sr., and Marian, and she wears

many hats in the safety department.

Under Andy’s guidance, A & M

Transport operates throughout

Oregon, Washington, California,

Nevada, and Arizona, with most

of the activity occurring along the

I-5 corridor. The principle types of

freight transported by the company

include consumer products, retail

store merchandise, food products,

paper products, beverages (alcoholic

and non-alcoholic), industrial

products, steel products, lumber,

and other building materials.

Andy stated the company would

grow even more if they could find

qualified drivers to put behind the

wheel. Even with a low turnover

rate of just 35% (as compared to

a national level that often reaches

100%), the driver shortage makes it

a challenge. Andy contributes their

low turnover to being a local carrier

that is dedicated to finding a solid

work-life balance for all employees
