For
more than 40 years, Van Wyk Freight Lines has been serving its customers
from its central Iowa location in Grinnell. What makes Van Wyk
Freight Lines stand out from the competition?
“We built this company on excellent service,” says Vernon
“Pinky” Van Wyk, president. “We’re competitive when it
comes to price but service is our strong suit.”
Van Wyk Freight Lines is focused on providing outstanding
transportation services within the mid-western region, along with its
expedited service to California.
The freight company that Vernon and Loretta Van Wyk began with a
single truck in 1962 has grown to approximately 80 employees. Van
Wyk Freight Line's 39-door service center and corporate offices are
located in Grinnell, Iowa, just off Interstate 80.
Warehousing is now a service that Van Wyk Freight Lines offers.
In January 2000, the Van Wyk’s built a warehouse that operates under
the name Interstate Access. This 120,000 square foot heated
facility is located adjacent to the freight terminal to ensure efficient
distribution.
Van Wyk Freight Lines also offers centralized tracing and OS&D, a
heated dock, security cameras, and hazardous materials distribution.
Van Wyk Freight Lines customers have enjoyed the company’s
commitment to excellent service and customer satisfaction for over 40
years. “What we do, we do better than anyone else,” says Pinky
Van Wyk. “It’s the secret to our success.”
