    This company really has a heart! They helped us when we were down, after an accident with our own truck, they took us in and gave us a great job! They've also helped us out financially as well.

    Shed some light on this company for me. Are they a household moving company? How many employee's? How long have they been in business? Pay scale? Company/lease/owner operators?

    Thanx

    Elliott is located in Moorehead MN, right next to Fargo. They haul mostly food products, van and reefer. Not a big company, but about average.


    We're really happy with them, the loads are a bit slow right now, but we're sticking with them.

    Oh, and they have newer trucks. We've got a 2007 KW. Very nice.

    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]When Jim Elliott established Elliott Transport Systems (ETS) in Moorhead in 1992, he bucked a trend by establishing a trucking firm in Minnesota. ETS operates 45 over-the-road trucks traveling the entire United States with the exception of New England. ETS also operates 8 gravel semis locally. Jim recently constructed a 12,000 warehouse for lease, and plans to construct more warehouse facilities, all adjacent to the company headquarters at 4101 32nd Avenue South in the MCCARA Industrial Park.

    This is about all I could find on them, on the net. Apparently they do not have a website. How about a little more details, thanx. I am interested in them, for the future....

    No, they don't have a web site.

    This is what came up on Google: Google Elliott Transport - Moorhead MN

    I do know that they take good care of their drivers. We feel pretty lucky to have found them.
