Family Owned, Quality Driven with Dependable Service

Akita Equipment and Auto Transport are a family-owned trucking company that was established in 2007 and is comprised of a strong team of experienced drivers with a fleet of over 35 modern trucks.

We specialize in auto transport, less than load (LTL) and full load as well as oversize and overweight loads. We offer load-handling equipment from flatbeds, step decks,s and double-drops to our multi-axle double-drop trailers. In addition to our open deck trailers, we have trailers that offer a convenient Roll Tarp system to keep your valuable cargo dry and safe.

Our excellent reputation often precedes us and we aim to provide personal, reliable, and timely service to each and every one of our customers.
