About Us

Crete Carrier has grown to one of the nation’s largest, privately held trucking companies in 50 years. Along with its sister company (Shaffer Trucking) and subsidiary (Hunt Transportation) Crete Carrier Corporation operates as a truckload and flatbed carrier of any commodity. We, as a company, are dedicated to our drivers. We have one of the lowest driver turnover rates in the industry. Drivers stay with us three times longer than they stay with our competition. Our professional drivers are among the best on all the highways, meeting standards far exceeding those required by the U.S. Department of Transportation.

At Crete Carrier, we know being an industry leader in driver pay is just the beginning. Our Leading Pay Plus program includes extras that boost drivers’ take-home pay now while providing more for retirement later. Our goal is to create opportunities for drivers who want choices in their driving job. We want to support drivers and help them succeed. See what Leading Pay Plus could mean for you. $11.5 million in profit sharing in 2025 and $103 million to employee retirement accounts since 2018
