    Just curious, once in Utah and western Nebraska I have passed already two Roehl trucks pulling trailers. Is Roehl now running out west or are these sightings just an exception?

    You'll see Roehl all over. But the majority of them are east of I-35. There are some Roehl folks on here who could answer more specifically.

    Ok so this post is old but I will respond anyways. I am a National Driver for Roehl and yes we do run west....just not often. I am in Salt Lake City, Utah right now and have seen a few other Roehls here. It is kind of funny though the place we use as a drop yard (if you want to call it that because there is only one trailer) is a customer's parking lot. I do wish we ran more west because these mountains here are beautiful! Also from what I have heard Roehl will not send a driver on I-70 through the mountains but instead will route the driver on I-80.

    I see Roehl FB loading once or twice a week at least just 2 miles from my house here in San Marcos, Ca. (n. San Diego) at bearing buddy. They've had this account for 20 years at least.

    Roehl purchased a huge terminal in Phoenix this year so you're gonna start seeing them more out West. It will probably be flatbed and dry van west bound and flatbed and refer eastbound.

    they do a little out west but not much.that terminal in az is a joke so far, there taking there sweet ### time setting it up. right now its a glorified drop yard that dispatchers work out of, with NO maintenance, or driver facility's, you cant even get in to use the bathroom unless the office is open. once (if ever) they get it up and running ti will be nice, but untill then its a joke. as for that terminal they do mostly fb loads out of it. now that i think back im not even sure i saw a van trailer when i was there.
