Every day in Springfield, hundreds of trucks and trailers pass through hauling all the consumer goods we buy, consume or sell on a daily basis. We took a look at four of the top local trucking companies responsible for getting those goods to us and to customers across the country and around the world. Prime Inc. transports consumer goods in the refrigerated, flatbed and tanker divisions, plus plants and flowers. TransLand mainly transports dry goods, and both Wil-Trans and Trailiner Corporation haul a variety of consumer goods, food products and pharmaceuticals. Next time you pick an item off the shelf, know that it just might have taken quite the road trip to get to you.
