Sterling’s original mission involved the transportation of temperature-controlled cargo. We developed a strong roster of multi-decade relationships across:
- the food & beverage industry, with customers with exceptionally demanding delivery deadlines and complex pick and drop logistics.
- the aerospace, technology, industrial & medical equipment, and pharmaceutical industries, with customers with specialized handling needs for high value, high security freight.
In recent years, we’ve expanded our capabilities to include a full suite of over-the-road solutions including LTL, dry van, flatbed, refrigerated, drayage and freight forwarding.
Sterling shines.
Sterling is large enough to have cutting edge technology and know-how, but small enough where the management of every single load matters.
That’s one reason our on-time record and other performance metrics are the envy of the industry. Few companies of Sterling’s size have our extremely broad capabilities.
We are a dedicated team of logistics professionals united by one singular purpose – delivering not just sterling service, but unparalleled service.
There’s No Substitute for Talent. (Or State of the Art Tools)
Since 1979, Sterling has prided itself on its team of world-class problem solvers. This team has allowed Sterling to develop a service record that is second to none in the industry.
Under new management, Sterling has leveraged these capabilities by adopting state-of-the-art technology solutions that allow Sterling to collaborate with shippers with full transparency and visibility.
With a commitment to continuous improvement, Sterling remains dedicated to refining its logistics processes, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and seamless communication at every stage of the supply chain.
We have you covered.
Sterling has not had a claim in over a decade. But you deserve even greater peace of mind than can be had by doing business with an organization with a sterling reputation.
That’s why Sterling guarantees that we’ll provide immediate reimbursement in the unlikely event of a claim. We believe that Sterling, not shippers, should bear the financial burden and the associated hassles if something goes wrong.
Like most of our competitors, we vet our carriers to make sure they have clean records and current insurance coverage. Some of our competitors carry contingent coverage if a claim exceeds the carrier’s coverage. But at Sterling, we carry primary insurance coverage. As a result, any questions about the amount, timing and certainty of recovery are eliminated.
