From a few pallets to a full truckload, get the capacity, coordination, and personal service to keep your freight moving.
Every shipment has its own requirements. Your transportation partner should be ready to work with them.
Since 1993, Burd Brothers has helped businesses move freight with dependable transportation and direct, personal communication. From smaller less-than-truckload shipments to full truckloads and hazardous materials, we help match your freight with the right equipment and service.
Our company fleet serves local and regional markets, while our brokerage relationships extend your options across the United States and Canada. When your freight needs more than transportation, we can coordinate warehousing, distribution, and cross-docking through the same team.
When your shipment needs most or all of a trailer, truckload service provides direct transportation with fewer handling points. It is a practical option for larger volumes, time-sensitive deliveries, high-value freight, or shipments with specific handling requirements.
Burd Brothers combines 53-foot dry van tractor-trailers with brokerage resources to coordinate regional and longer-distance transportation. We consider the load, route, and delivery requirements to determine the right fit.
You do not need a full trailer to get dependable freight service. LTL transportation gives you flexibility for smaller palletized shipments and changing freight volumes.
We coordinate LTL shipments through our own transportation capabilities and carrier network. Our team helps you compare LTL and truckload options based on shipment size, destination, timing, and budget—so the service fits the freight you actually need to move.
Hazardous materials require appropriate handling, qualified people, and careful coordination. Burd Brothers offers hazmat transportation and storage capabilities, with safety and compliance built into the planning process.
All our drivers hold hazmat and tanker endorsements, and our operations are fully insured. Our warehouse is also hazmat certified and insured, allowing transportation and storage to be coordinated when your shipment requires both.
When freight needs to move between trucks rather than into long-term storage, cross-docking connects inbound and outbound transportation. It can shorten time between transportation legs and support a more efficient distribution process.
Burd Brothers coordinates freight transfers with transportation and warehouse activity, tailoring the approach to shipment volume, timing, and delivery requirements.
Urgent freight needs clear communication and a coordinated plan. Burd Brothers provides local and regional expedited transportation for shipments with time-sensitive pickup or delivery requirements.
With regional strength across Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and surrounding markets, our team works with you to confirm the shipment details, available capacity, and required timing. You have real people to contact as your freight moves.
Cross-border freight does not always require a full truckload. Burd Brothers offers next-day LTL service to Canada on applicable routes, giving businesses a time-efficient option for smaller shipments.
Our team helps coordinate pickup, transportation, delivery, and customs requirements. Share your origin, destination, shipment details, and timing so we can confirm availability and the requirements for your shipment.
Burd Brothers specializes in regional freight transportation throughout Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and surrounding markets. With decades of experience serving businesses across the region, our team understands the routes, delivery schedules, and logistics challenges involved in keeping freight moving efficiently.
Our company-operated fleet primarily serves destinations within a 250-mile radius of Cincinnati, with regular connections to Dayton, Louisville, Columbus, Indianapolis, Lexington, Toledo, and surrounding communities. From recurring LTL shipments to truckloads and time-sensitive deliveries, our transportation specialists coordinate dependable freight solutions tailored to your business needs.
For shipments extending beyond our direct operating area, Cincinnati’s Best Brokerage (C.B.B.) expands our capabilities through an established network of qualified carriers across the United States and Canada. This combination of regional expertise and nationwide carrier access allows us to support your transportation needs across a much broader service area, while maintaining the personalized service and single point of contact you expect from Burd Brothers.
